The Lowdown

Right then, let's have a look at what's on the table for the next couple of weeks. I'm only lookin' at Aileen's here, and straight up, it's a bit of a heartbreaker. This is an exposed, advanced reef break that needs everything to line up perfectly, and for the vast majority of this 16-day window, the wind is just gonna wreck it.

We kick off on Saturday the 12th with a solid 6ft swell from the WSW with a period of 10 seconds, pushing a strong 1062 of energy. But it's coming straight in with a 15 mph cross-onshore wind. That's a no-go. The water is sitting at 61°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but you won't be feeling it through that chop.

Sunday the 13th is a bit of a tease. The swell drops to 4ft, but the morning has a light cross-shore breeze. Still, the score is marginal, so it's not one to get excited about. The rest of that week is a write-off with strong winds and messy conditions, despite some decent sized swell. By Thursday the 17th, we've got 8ft to 8ft of W swell, pushing up to 1733 of energy, but it's all onshore and blown out. That's expert-only territory even with a clean face, but it won't be clean.

Things get properly big and properly messy starting Saturday the 19th. The swell hits 10ft from the west, energy over 4000, and the wind is screaming over 30 mph onshore. That's not surfing; that's survival, or maybe kite surfing if you're into that sort of thing. That pattern of big, onshore swell continues through to the 21st.

Finally, there's a glimmer from Monday the 22nd onwards. The swell drops right back, but the wind starts to swing offshore or cross-offshore. The mornings on the 24th and 25th of September look clean with a light to moderate cross-offshore breeze. The swell is small though, only 3ft to 3ft from the west with a long period of 11 seconds, and the energy is low, around 94 to 135. It's small and clean, but it's the best on offer. It'll be perfect for a longboard or a fish, but don't expect any power.

Honestly, there's no standout session in this whole outlook. The best you're gonna get is a small, clean, gutless wave on the 24th or 25th, and even then, it's nothing to write home about. A long wait for not much reward, I'm afraid.

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.
