The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break it down.

For Aileen's, this stretch is a letdown. It’s a top-shelf reef break for advanced surfers, but the wind is going to spoil most of the party. The best window is on Thursday the 13th – we’ve got a 4ft swell from the WSW at 10 seconds, combined energy at 250 (moderate), but the wind is cross-shore, so it’ll have some bumps. That’s the closest we get to a decent session, but it’s only “marginal.”

After that, it’s mostly poor. The swell bumps up to 6ft from the W on Tuesday the 18th, but with fresh cross-onshore wind and energy at 413 (strong), it’s choppy. By Wednesday the 19th, it’s 8ft from the W with a near gale – just dangerous and blown out, with energy hitting 1550 (very strong). Only for the brave or the silly.

There’s a brief moment on Friday the 21st morning with glassy 2ft waves from the W, but combined energy is only 85 (weak). It’s a small clean window, but nothing exciting.

No true standout here. The crowds are “often” but they won’t matter because the surf quality is low across the board. If you’re keen, go for Thursday the 13th morning – it’s the least ugly option. Otherwise, this spot needs a south-east wind that we’re just not getting.

Hang tight. Things can always flip.

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.
