The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, talkin’ Aisling’s Beach.
We’re lookin’ at a long, quiet stretch. Most of the next week and a half is flat or junky, with tiny waves and poor wind. The first real chance to surf doesn’t come until the morning of the 30th of August.
The best window is the morning of Sunday the 30th of August. Swell comes in at 4ft from the SSW, with combined energy at 206 (moderate). The wind is from the S at 10 mph, blowin’ cross-offshore, so it’ll be clean. That’s your best bet for the whole outlook.
The second highlight is the morning of Wednesday the 2nd of September. Swell is 4ft from the NNE, combined energy at 229 (moderate). Wind is SSW at 10 mph, straight offshore, makin’ for clean faces. The period is short (6 seconds) so it’ll be a bit lumpy and quick, but still worth a paddle.
Water temp is about normal for this time of year.
Crowds can be a thing here sometimes, so expect a few heads on those better mornings.
The rest of the 16 days? Mostly flat or ugly. The 4th of September drops to 1ft, and then 0.3ft with a 16-second period – that’s just a dead ocean.
So, aim for the 30th of August morning and the 2nd of September morning. Everything else, leave the board in the car.
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.
