Alright folks, Rusty here again, in feet and miles. Let’s lay it out plain: for Aileen’s, we’re staring down a long, flat, and blown-out stretch over the next two weeks. Don’t get too excited.
The first few days don’t offer anything. Tuesday through Thursday, we’ve got swell around 4ft from the west, but cross-onshore winds over 6 mph are wrecking it. Those moderate energy readings (210 to 230) can’t save it – the surface is choppy and poor. Write that whole opening block off.
Friday the 10th morning is the only flicker of hope – swell drops to about 3ft from the WNW, a longer 11-second period, and a light cross-shore breeze. Energy moderate at 240, but they call it marginal. It’s your best bet for a clean-ish wave, but it’s thin and conditions are iffy. By the afternoon, it’s back to no good.
From Saturday the 11th onward, things drop hard. Swell falls below 2ft, energy sinks into the weak category (under 100 after the 12th), and by the 13th we’re talking tiny 0.5ft leftovers. Even with clean offshore or cross-off winds, there’s no power. It’s flat.
The second week is more of the same. Monday the 20th and Tuesday the 21st give us 0.3 to 1ft waves, but cross-on or onshore winds keep them messy. Wednesday the 22nd has a light offshore breeze again, but only 2ft of weak, short-period swell (72 energy). Clean, but tiny.
No standout today. Friday morning the 10th is the only window worth paddling out for – knee to waist high, decent period, light breeze. But don’t expect much. Aileen’s needs a real west groundswell, and it just ain’t coming.
Hang tight out there.

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.
