The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s on offer for Asling’s Beach over the next couple of weeks.
First off, I gotta be straight with you – it’s a slow start. The forecast is looking pretty quiet, and we’ve got a long stretch of small, weak conditions before anything really gets going. The water temp is sitting at about 60°, which is pretty much what you’d expect for this time of year, nothing wild there.
The first real sign of anything surfable doesn’t show up until Friday morning, August 28th. We’ve got a small 4ft swell rolling in from the SE with a period of 10 seconds, and the combined energy is moderate at 213. The wind is glassy out of the WNW, so the surface will be clean. It’s not big, and it’s super ordinary, but if you’re a beginner or just need to get wet, it’s the pick of the early days. The crowd factor is listed as “sometimes,” so you might have company.
Saturday morning, August 29th, is much the same but smaller – 2ft from the SE, glassy winds, but the energy is down to 83 (weak). It’s a fun little wave for a longboard or a foamie, but nothing to write home about. After that, we’re looking at a real dry spell. From Sunday the 30th right through to the end of the first week of September, the swell drops away to tiny 0.7ft to 2ft junk, with energy often in the single digits or low 40s. The wind is sometimes offshore or glassy, but there’s just no push. It’s a proper blank run – about 8 days of pretty much nothing worth paddling for.
Now, things start to get more interesting around Wednesday, September 9th, but unfortunately, it’s not good news for clean surfing. The swell picks up to 3ft on the morning of the 9th, with a 12-second period and strong energy (319), but it’s coming with a fresh 19 mph cross-shore wind from the SW, making it lumpy. By the afternoon, the swell jumps to 6ft (short period, 5 seconds) and the wind is still messy. This setup is more for the kite crew than paddle surfers.
Thursday, September 10th is the biggest swell of the whole outlook. The morning sees a 4ft groundswell from the SSE with a 11-second period and very strong energy (637). The problem is the wind is a moderate cross-shore at 12 mph. By the afternoon, the swell hits 5ft with a long 14-second period and energy of 915 – that’s some serious power. But the wind swings onshore from the SSE, chopping it up. On a sheltered beach like Asling’s, a 5ft swell with a long period can be okay for experienced surfers, but the wind is going to ruin the shape. This is an expert-only window if you’re desperate.
Friday, September 11th offers a bit of relief. The morning has a 4ft swell from the SSE with a 11-second period (391 energy) and a light cross-offshore wind from the N. That’s the cleanest the surf will be in this whole second week. It’s still ordinary, but it’s the best you’re going to get. Afternoon sees the wind picking up from the NE, making it cross-shore and choppy again.
So, to sum it up: the standout is Friday morning, August 28th, for the clean glassy conditions on a small wave. The only other real highlight is Friday morning, September 11th, with a bit more size and a clean offshore wind, but it’s a long way out and less certain. The rest of the time is either flat, blown out, or too messy for a rewarding session. If you’re a beginner, the first Friday is your best bet. For the experts, keep an eye on that 10th, but don’t hold your breath for perfection.
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.
