Alright, grab a coffee, this is a tough one. We're looking at a bleak stretch ahead for Aldinga Beach. Right off the bat, I gotta tell ya, the water's sitting around 60°, which is pretty much spot on for this time of year, so at least you won't get any surprises temperature-wise.
Honestly, the next week and a half is a write-off. There's barely a ripple. You've got a long, flat gap here starting today, Friday the 3rd, all the way through, well, it's a grim picture. The swell that shows up around the 11th is a joke – just 5ft on Saturday morning from the NNW, but with a period of only 5 seconds. That's windswell, pure and simple, and the combined energy (102) is barely a murmur. The conditions are labeled as very ordinary, and I'd agree. Nothing to get excited about.
The only real glimpse of something surfable, and I'm using that term loosely, comes on Monday the 13th in the morning. We've got a 4ft swell from the SSW, period of 6 seconds, so still short-period stuff. The combined energy is 97, so it's weak. The wind is offshore from the ENE at 6 mph, which will keep things clean. But honestly, it's a long way out, and given the pattern, don't hold your breath.
Let's be straight with each other: Aldinga Beach is an inconsistent spot, and this 16-day window proves it. There's nothing here that qualifies as a standout. It's a stretch of near-zero surf. If the wind stays strong from the south, as it looks like it will later on, this beach-and-reef setup is going to be more appealing to the kite crew than us paddle surfers. For now, save the wax for another time.
