The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break it down for this spot.

Gotta be straight with you – this is a total bust. The whole 16-day stretch is a no-go. The first few days are blown out with strong cross-onshore winds and messy, lumpy surf. Swell heights barely hit 5ft, but the period is short (7-8 seconds), so it’s just windswell junk. Mid-week, the wind improves a bit, but the swell tanks, dropping to 3ft and even 1ft. The energy readings are pathetic, in the teens and twenties (15-79). That’s not surf, that’s a bathtub.

Aileen’s is a reef break that needs a clean, long-period groundswell to really work, and we’re getting nothing close. The optimum swell direction is from the WSW, and while we get some W and WSW swell, it’s pinned by onshore or cross-onshore wind. Water temp is around 62°F, which is about average for the season.

The second week is even worse. Swell heights drop to 0.7ft and 1ft for days. We get a couple of glassy mornings on August 7th and August 12th, with offshore or glassy wind, but there’s no swell to ride. The period is short (4-5 seconds) and the energy is a whisper (15-66). You’d be better off waxing your car.

This is one of those dry spells that happens here when the swell windows don’t line up. It won’t stay poor forever, but for now, the boards are staying on the rack.

Information about the Aileen's Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Aileen's provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Aileen's can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Aileen's surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Aileen's) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).

Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Aileen's may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
