The Lowdown
G'day, Rusty here. Look, I'm gonna be straight with you – the next couple of weeks are a write-off for any decent surf around here. We're looking at a long, flat, and mostly gutless run with nothing worth paddling out for. There's a real gap of surf, with no recommendations from now all the way through.
The only break on the cards is Asling's Beach, and it's a sheltered beginner spot that's fairly consistent, but the conditions just aren't playing ball. The water temp is sitting at 60°F, which is about average for this time of year, nothing to write home about.
Let's run through the period. Starting off, this Sunday the 9th of August, we've got a tiny 0.7ft swell from the SSE with a 10-second period, but the wind is a cross-off from the north at 9 mph. The combined energy is weak (13), and the call is "poor surf conditions." The afternoon gets worse – wind jumps to 16 mph from the north, swell drops to 0.3ft. Not worth a look.
Monday the 10th is a complete dud, with zero swell energy in the morning and a tiny 0.3ft from the SE in the afternoon. Tuesday the 11th offers a slight pulse – 2ft from the south, but the period is a short, weak 7 seconds, and the wind goes cross-on in the afternoon. The energy peaks at 52 in the arvo, but it's still "poor." The rest of the week just repeats: small, weak, and often windy. By the weekend of the 16th, we finally see a 3ft easterly swell on the Sunday afternoon with 86 energy, but it's cross-onshore and a short 6-second period – just messy.
The second week is more of the same: tiny waves, inconsistent energy, and winds that are mostly cross or onshore. There's a moment on the 22nd of August where we see 2ft from the south, but the period is a pathetic 4-5 seconds, and the energy is low. It's just not happening.
Bottom line: the setup here is more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing on the days with stronger onshore wind. For a surfer, there's absolutely nothing to get excited about. Forecasts can change, but this blank run is looking pretty normal for the area at this time.
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.
