The Lowdown

Alright, let me tell you how it’s looking at Aileen’s. I won’t lie, it’s a tough stretch. There’s not a single proper swell window in the whole 16 days, and the forecast is pretty much a long flat spell with only scraps of energy.

Right now, Wednesday the 29th, we have a bit of a pulse but the wind is howling onshore from the WNW at 12 mph, making a mess of things. The swell is 3 ft from the west with a short 8-second period and moderate wave energy (120). The water temp is 62°, about average for the time of year, but it doesn’t matter much when the surf is poor. Conditions stay poor through to Saturday, with swell dropping fast and wind staying onshore.

The weekend and first half of next week are dead. Swell heights barely reach 1.0 ft, and the combined energy dips into the low double digits. Sunday the 2nd morning has clean conditions with a light easterly offshore, but with only 1.0 ft of west swell at 10 seconds, there’s nothing to ride. Monday the 3rd sees stronger NE winds but again, just tiny 1.0 ft waves.

There is a slight tease on Thursday the 6th of August. The swell is still only 1.0 ft from the west, period 10 seconds, with an east wind at 3 mph – glassy, clean. But it’s ankle-biters, and the combined energy is a weak 18. The best moment might be Friday the 7th morning, with a moderate offshore from the east at 12 mph, clean conditions, but only 0.7 ft of west swell. Even a spot like Aileen’s, which is an exposed reef point that loves a long-period WSW groundswell, can’t do anything with that.

Because the swell is so weak and inconsistent, and this break rarely breaks as it is, this is not a time for paddle surfing. With the often onshore winds and tiny waves, it might actually look more interesting for kite surfing than a surf session.

Honestly, in the 16-day window, there are no real standouts. The few clean windows have no wave height, and when there’s a little more energy, the wind is wrong. For a spot like this, a long blank run is more normal. Keep an eye on the forecasts – things can change.

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.
