The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the next couple of weeks.

Honestly, I’ve gotta be straight with you – there’s nothing doing for the whole 16-day window. We’re looking at a flat spell that just won’t quit. The first possible surf doesn’t show up until the 15th of July, and from there it’s just a long, drawn-out run of poor surf conditions every single day. There’s no real kick of energy, no window of clean, rideable waves. It’s a tough one for the area.

The only break on the radar is Aileen's – a reef setup that’s inconsistent and for advanced crew only. The ideal swell direction for it is WSW, but for most of the forecast, the swell is tiny, mostly 1 ft to 1 ft from the W or WSW, with periods around 8 to 9 seconds. That’s weak, short-period stuff. The combined swell energy is in the weak range, often just 23 to 41 (weak energy), barely enough to move you. You’d be bobbing around on a lake.

The winds are a mixed bag, but it doesn’t matter because there’s nothing to push. On the 15th of July Wednesday morning, we get a brief moment of gentle offshore wind from the east, with a 1 ft WSW swell and a 9-second period, but the energy is still weak (39) and the surf is labelled poor. It’s clean, sure, but it’s flat. That’s about as close as we get to a highlight, and it’s not one.

The water temperature is about average for the time of year, nothing out of the ordinary there.

Later in the window, around the 24th of July, we see a slight bump – a 4 ft NW windswell on Friday afternoon with a period of just 5 seconds and energy of 71 (still weak). But the wind is onshore at 12 mph, making it a messy, blown-out affair. Not one for the log.

After that, we get into some strong winds – fresh breezes from the SW and WSW, with a bit of rain and cloudy skies, but the swell stays tiny. The 25th and 26th of July see some 2 ft to 2 ft NW swell, but the wind is howling 19 to 22 mph onshore. That’s kite-surfing weather, not paddle surfing. The setup looks far more interesting for those with a kite than a surfboard.

The final few days, from the 28th to the 30th of July, are more of the same – tiny swells, cross-shore or onshore winds, and poor conditions. The energy never gets above 37 (weak). There’s just nothing to get excited about.

So, bottom line: it’s a blank run. For this area, that’s more normal than unusual. Forecasts can change, and it tends not to stay poor forever, but for now, I’d keep the boards in the rack and wait for the next system.

Rusty.

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.
