The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let's size up the same stretch for Aisling's Beach. Water temp is sitting at 60°, which is normal for the season. Nothing out of the ordinary.
We kick off with a little pulse and clean offshore winds. Friday morning the 24th has 2ft SSE swell, 12-second period, and a WSW wind blowing 15 mph straight offshore. Wave energy is weak (103), but it's clean. By Friday afternoon, the swell bumps to 3ft from the SSE, 11 seconds, and the wind stays offshore at 12 mph. Energy jumps to a moderate 291, and it's good surf. This is the best early option – small, but clean.
Saturday the 25th morning drops back to 2ft and 65 energy, still offshore. Afternoon brings a bigger 5ft S swell at 10 seconds, but the wind turns cross-offshore, and the energy hits 607. It's over 5ft, so not for the beginners, but it's a session for the experienced.
Sunday the 26th morning is tiny and weak. Afternoon is the real deal: 5ft SSW swell, 9-second period, and a light offshore breeze. The energy is strong (456) and conditions are good. That's a solid afternoon.
Monday the 27th morning is glassy but only 1ft with 40 energy – a total lull. The rest of the week is a dead zone. From Tuesday the 28th through the end of the month, we're looking at tiny waves, mostly under 2ft, very low energy, and a lot of onshore or cross-shore wind. There's a gap of about 4 days with nothing worth paddling for.
There's a flicker on Thursday the 30th afternoon: 4ft S swell, 11 seconds, 440 energy, but cross-shore wind and questionable tide. It's a maybe.
The next real standout is Sunday, August 2nd. The morning brings 4ft SSE swell at 9 seconds, with a 9 mph offshore wind from the SW. Energy is a solid 306, and conditions are good. A proper session. The afternoon falls apart with a strong onshore wind.
Now, mark your calendar for Thursday, August 6th. The morning is glassy, 4ft ESE swell at 9 seconds, energy at 370. Clean and sweet. But the absolute standout is Friday morning, August 7th. Swell hits 6ft from the east, 12-second period, glassy as a mirror. Energy is 895 – very strong. This is the best wave of the whole run. It's over 5ft, so it's expert territory, but if you've got the chops, that's your session. The afternoon goes onshore and messy.
The long-range stuff is promising but not a lock. That Friday morning is the one to dream on.
Rusty.

Information about the Aisling's Beach Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Aisling's Beach provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Aisling's Beach can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Aisling's Beach 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 (Aisling's Beach) 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 Aisling's Beach 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.
Aisling's Beach is 4 km (2 miles) from Eden. If you plan a holiday in Far South New South Wales, look for hotels and other accommodation in Eden. Eden has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
