The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what we’ve got coming up.
To be straight with you, it’s a lean run. We’re looking at a solid stretch of small, weak surf with not much to get excited about for the next couple of weeks. The first real chance of anything rideable won’t show up until Friday, the 28th of August, and even then, it’s pretty ordinary.
Now, for the early part of the week, forget it. Monday the 24th through to Thursday the 27th is a total write-off. We’re looking at tiny waves – mostly under 2 ft – with poor conditions. The wind is all over the shop, and the energy is barely registering, with values down around 15-60 (weak energy). It’s not worth paddling out.
Friday the 28th of August is where we finally see a pulse. Swell picks up a tiny bit to 2-3 ft out of the SE, with glassy conditions in the morning. The energy is still low but climbs to 157 (moderate wave energy) by the afternoon. It’s surfable, but the comment says it best: ordinary. Water temp is sitting at 60°, which is about average for this time of year.
Saturday the 29th of August is similar – a glassy morning with 2 ft SE swell, energy at 116 (moderate). Decent for a longboard or a foiler, but you won’t be doing any turns. The glassy calm in the morning is a nice touch, but the crowd factor at Asling’s Beach can be sometimes an issue, so keep that in mind if you’re hoping for a quiet paddle.
After Saturday, it drops right off again. Sunday the 30th through to Tuesday the 8th of September is a long, flat gap with barely a ripple. Swell heights hover around 0.3-1 ft, and energy values are mostly in the 10-40 range (weak). There’s a brief flicker on Tuesday the 8th of September afternoon, with a 2 ft SSE swell and glassy wind – energy hits 110 (moderate) – but the comment still calls it “very ordinary.”
So, the standout? Honestly, it’s a toss-up between Friday the 28th of August afternoon and Saturday the 29th of August morning. I’d give the nod to Saturday morning the 29th for the pure glass and the slightly better consistency. At 2 ft from the SE, it’s tiny but clean. If you’re a beginner, this is your window – anything over 5 ft would be too much, so these ankle-snatchers are perfect for a learner session. Just watch for the cross-on breeze that kicks in later in the day.
Overall, it’s a slow period. Not much to choose from, but if you’re desperate for a wet suit, Saturday the 29th morning is your best bet. Keep an eye on it – forecasts can change.

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.
