The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk surf for Avalon 15th Street, but in feet and Fahrenheit.
Honestly, it’s a quiet one. We’ve got a long dry spell up front – from now through the end of August, the waves are pathetic. Swell sizes are just 1ft, maybe 2ft at best, with energy readings mostly below 50. That’s barely enough to wet your wetsuit. Even the clean windows, like Tuesday morning with light offshore wind, can’t save it.
The first hint of anything happens on Wednesday, 2nd September. Still only about 2ft from the SE, period 12 seconds, energy 51 – still weak. Cross-shore wind from the NE adds a little bump. Not worth a special trip.
The only window that stands out is the morning of Saturday, 5th September. We get a bump to 2ft from the ESE, period 11 seconds, energy cracking 101 – that’s moderate. And it’s offshore wind from the NW, so it’ll be clean. Not big, but it’s the best on offer. That afternoon holds at 2ft with clean cross-off breeze. Sunday the 6th shows a 4ft swell from the S, period short at 5 seconds, energy 127, but the wind goes cross-on from the SSW, which’ll chop it up.
Avalon 15th Street is a beginner spot, so with these tiny waves, it’s safe but not exciting. Crowds can happen, but with this flat spell, you’ll likely have the place to yourself.
The standout is the morning of 5th September – clean, small, but just about rideable for a log or funboard. Water temp’s 77°, which is about 4° warmer than normal, so it’s pretty warm for a wetsuit or just boardies.
After that, it goes back to small and choppy through the 9th. Not much to write home about. If you’re keen, pencil in the 5th.
