Right. So, we’re looking at Aileen’s. That’s a top-shelf reef break that really needs things to line up. It’s an advanced wave, and it’s inconsistent, so when it’s good, it’s for the crew who know what they’re doing. For this whole 16-day run, I gotta be straight with you – it’s a long wait. There’s next to nothing on offer for the first week and a half. You're looking at a massive gap from the start until Tuesday the 21st of July.
The only real window that even gets close to interesting is that final Wednesday and Thursday. The standout here is Wednesday morning, the 22nd of July. We’ve got a clean 7ft swell rolling in from the west with a period of 9 seconds. The combined energy is up there at 670 (moderate), and the wind is a gentle offshore from the ESE, which should keep the face of that reef looking pretty tidy. It’s a solid pulse for experts, but that's a big swell – over 5ft – so it's not a beginner's game. The water temp is sitting at 60°, which is about average for this time of year.
Thursday the 23rd of July, the morning is worth a mention too. A smaller 5ft from the west, still with that same gentle offshore wind from the ESE. The energy drops a bit (438), but it’s still a much cleaner option than anything else we’ve seen all week.
For the rest of it, we’ve got days of tiny, weak swell with onshore or cross-off winds. There’s a little tease on the Tuesday the 21st with a glassy 6ft wave, but the period is a short 6 seconds and the energy is only 187. It's surfable, but it's not going to be the Aileen’s we all dream of.
So, bottom line: if you’re an expert with a flexible schedule, keep your eyes on that Wednesday the 22nd morning. It’s a long-range call, so it’s promising but not locked in. The rest of this run, honestly, you might be better off doing something else.

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.
