The Lowdown

Alright, this is Rusty. Let’s talk about what’s happening at Aileen’s.

Honestly, the next couple of weeks are looking pretty flat and ugly. From right now through the 20th of August, it’s mostly a bust. The wind is consistently cross-on or onshore from the SW or WSW, blowing 12 to 22 mph, and the swell is tiny—most days showing 0.5 to 2 ft. The energy is weak. There are a few clean windows, like the morning of the 10th (light cross-shore) or the 15th morning (glassy), but with only 0.5 to 0.8 ft waves and energy readings in the low double digits, it’s not even worth a look.

The only real chance for anything sizeable is the afternoon of the 20th of August. We’re looking at a 7 ft swell from the W, period around 8 seconds, with a light cross-shore wind. The energy is strong (617). But it’s flagged as marginal, so don’t plan a trip around it. That size is only for experts anyway—over 8 ft is serious.

The 21st morning also has some potential with a 6 ft swell from the WNW and a 9-second period, clean cross-off wind, but it’s also marginal. Might be a loner session.

The big issue is the wind. It’s almost always cross-on or onshore, blowing 12-25 mph, making the reef a choppy mess. Aileen’s needs clean conditions to work.

Water temp on the 7th is about 62°, which is normal for this time of year.

Basically, save your energy. The 20th is the only day with real size, and even then it’s a gamble. The rest is a hard pass.

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.
