The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk Amaralina. First week and a half is a bust. From Wednesday the 5th to Friday the 14th, it’s all small, messy, and choppy. Swell is tiny, around 2ft to 4ft, with wind blowing from the wrong directions. The combined wave energy is weak to moderate, like 261 and 248, but it’s just not surfable. Water temp is 79°, pretty average for the season.
The first decent window is Saturday the 15th morning. Clean conditions with a light offshore wind from the NNW, swell at 2ft from the ESE, period 10 seconds. Combined energy hits 211 (moderate). It’s small, but it’s clean. That’s the best of the first half.
Sunday the 16th morning is also a cracker. Light ENE cross-offshore wind, 3ft swell from the ESE, period 12 seconds, combined energy 291 (moderate). That’s a longer period groundswell, and it’s clean. That’s the pick of the whole outlook.
Tuesday the 18th morning brings a bigger swell – 6ft from the SE, period 8 seconds. Combined energy is 478 (strong), but it’s raining and the wind is cross-offshore. That’s getting too big for beginners, but okay for the experienced crew. The afternoon hits 7ft, but the cross-onshore wind ruins it.
The standouts are the mornings of Saturday the 15th and Sunday the 16th. Clean, offshore wind, and a nice groundswell. Everything else is a write-off.
Rusty.

Information about the Amaralina Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Amaralina provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Amaralina can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Amaralina 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 (Amaralina) 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 Amaralina 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.
