The Lowdown
G'day, I'm Rusty, and I've had a good look at what's on the table for the next couple of weeks. I'll be straight with you – it's a tough stretch. The forecast is a long, quiet slog with very little to get excited about. The water temp is sitting at 61°F, which is about 2°F warmer than the long-term average for this time of year, so it's a touch on the mild side.
We're looking at a gap of over a week with no real surf to speak of. From now through to the start of September, the waves are tiny and the energy is just not there. The combined swell energy is barely flickering, with values well under 100 (weak energy), and the heights are mostly below 1 ft. It's a real flat spell, and that's not unusual for the area.
The first real glimmer of hope doesn't show up until Thursday, the 4th of September. That's a long way off, so take it with a grain of salt. For the morning session, Asling's Beach will see a 3 ft swell from the SSE with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy picks up to 247 (moderate wave energy), which is the best we've got. The wind is glassy from the NNE, so the surface will be clean. It's surfable, but the conditions are just very ordinary. The afternoon cleans up with a 3 ft swell from the E, but the wind turns cross-shore, so it's not as good.
Given the long period of flatness and the small, weak surf on offer, this is a tough outlook. The standout is the morning of Thursday, 4th September, but it's a long way off and the quality is nothing to write home about.
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.
