The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for Aileen’s. This is a heavy reef setup, and it’s inconsistent, so it doesn’t just turn on. We’ve got a long run of nothing good to start, so patience is key.

The first week is pretty much a write-off. From the 7th right through to the 15th, we’re looking at poor conditions. The wind is mostly cross-on or cross, with a fresh breeze kicking up a lumpy, messy surface. The swell is there, with some solid pulses of 7ft to 8ft from the W to WSW, but the energy is moderate to strong (say, 964 to 1815), and the period is short to average. It’s no good for paddle surfing; honestly, with that wind and swell, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than a proper wave session. The water temp is a touch warmer than normal for the time of year, sitting at 62°.

Things start to look a little more promising from the 16th. It’s not a full-blown classic, but it’s the best we’ve got. The 16th (Wednesday) morning shows a clean, cross-off breeze from the SSE at 9 mph, with a 5ft WSW swell running at 10 seconds. The energy is low (377), but the conditions are clean. The 17th (Thursday) morning is also clean, with an ESE cross-off at 12 mph, pushing a 7ft WSW swell (9 seconds, energy 778). The 18th (Friday) morning sees a bigger pulse: 10ft from the W at 12 seconds, with a clean SE cross-off at 22 mph. The energy is strong (2430). That’s a big wave for a shallow reef, so this is experts only. It’s a stand-out for size and clean conditions, but the period is moderate, and the swell direction is a bit off the optimum (WSW is ideal, but W is close). The 19th (Saturday) morning also holds 10ft from the WSW, with a clean cross-off from the SE at 16 mph (energy 1696). That’s a solid option, too.

So, the best bet is the 18th or 19th. The 18th (Friday) morning is the standout: solid 10ft groundswell, clean wind, good energy. This is for experienced surfers only. The 19th (Saturday) morning is a close second. It’s a short window, but it’s the only real quality on offer. After that, the 20th and 21st drop back into poor or marginal conditions, though the 22nd (Tuesday) morning shows a clean 3ft wave with light offshore wind from the east – a fun little session for the longboard if you’re keen.

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.
