The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you: the next sixteen days are going to test your patience if you’re chasing waves at Asling's Beach. This is a sheltered corner, and the ocean is looking flat and pretty uninspired for a long stretch. We’ve got a few tiny bumps, but nothing that’s going to get the heart racing. The good news is, the water’s sitting at 60°F, which is about average for this time of year, so you won’t be freezing while you’re staring at the flatness.
The first real chance of anything surfable shows up on Friday morning, the 28th of August. We finally see a pulse of 4ft of south-east swell, with a period of 10 seconds. The energy reading is 247, which is the strongest we’ll see in the whole window. The wind is dead glassy, which is a huge plus. It’s still pretty ordinary, but it’s the best of a bad bunch. The afternoon drops off a touch to 3ft, but it stays glassy. If you’re desperate for a paddle, this is your day.
Saturday the 29th has a similar 2ft in the morning, but the wind goes a bit cross, so it won’t be as clean. The afternoon cleans up again with a glassy 2ft, but it’s barely breaking. From Sunday the 30th of August, it just dies. We are looking at days of tiny, weak swell, mostly 1ft or less, with no energy behind it. The wind is all over the place, but the waves just aren't there. This flat spell runs right through to the end of the forecast. We see a brief uptick in period on the 6th of September, but the swell height is only 1ft, so it’s a tease. There are days with offshore winds and clean conditions, but you need waves for that to matter.
To be honest, the whole run looks more like a rest period. There’s no standout day, and the only time you’d even get your board wet is that Friday the 28th. Even then, it’s not going to be memorable. The rest of the time, it’s a lake. But hey, that’s the nature of a sheltered spot. It can’t be pumping all the time. Forecasts can change, but right now, I’d be finding something else to do.
Rusty.

Information about the Asling's Beach Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Asling'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 Asling's Beach can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Asling'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 (Asling'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 Asling'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.
Asling's Beach is 2 km (1 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.
