The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, taking a look at what we’ve got for Avalon 15th Street.
Over the next couple of weeks, the surf scene is basically flat. There’s just no swell to speak of in the 16-day window. We're stuck in a real drought, with a long string of days where the waves are tiny, the wind is messy, and the quality is poor. There are no standout sessions worth chasing.
The first bit of action is on Monday, August 10th. You’ll see a clean little 0.7 ft bump from the south in the afternoon, but it’s barely enough to wobble your fins. The energy is flat-out weak (8 in the morning, 25 in the afternoon), and the period is short, meaning it’s all windswill with no real power. Water temp is a balmy 78°, a touch warmer than normal, which feels nice, but the surf is just not there.
By Thursday, August 13th, we get a pulse of 3 ft from the south, but it’s blowing a stormy cross-onshore wind and the period is a pathetic 4 seconds. That’s just lumpy, choppy junk. With that fresh breeze, the setup looks a lot more interesting for a kite than a paddle board. The combined energy is still weak at 40.
Honestly, the whole forecast is a washout. Even the glassy morning on Saturday, August 22nd, only gives us 1 ft of weak, short-period swell and an energy reading of just 30. There’s no push in the water.
Avalon 15th Street is a fairly exposed beginner-friendly beach, but with nothing on offer and the wind on it, it’s just a flat, choppy mess. This kind of blank run is not unusual for this area during this time of year. Stay patient—forecasts can always change.
