Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what the next couple of weeks are serving up for us.
To be straight with you, it’s a tough stretch ahead. We’re looking at a long, flat lull right from the start. There’s nothing worth paddling out for on Friday the 3rd, Saturday the 4th, or Sunday the 5th of July. The waves are tiny at best, barely pushing 1ft from the southeast, and the energy in the water is weak as dishwater – you’d be floating more than surfing. The wind does offer some clean, glassy moments, especially Sunday morning with that glassy SW wind, but there’s simply no swell to ride. This quiet spell stretches on for days.
We finally see a pulse of energy arrive on Wednesday the 15th of July. The swell bumps up to a modest 4ft, but it’s short-period stuff coming from the south at only 7 seconds, so it won’t have much push. The highlight of this whole period is likely Wednesday morning at Avalon 15th Street. We get a clean, cross-off wind from the west at 12 mph, which will keep the surface tidy. The water temp is sitting at 73°, which is a touch warmer than normal for the time of year, so you won’t need a thick suit.
Into the second week, the 18th of July brings a little more size, with swells hitting 4ft from the south, but the period drops to a poor 5 to 6 seconds, and the wind is ugly – strong onshore and cross-onshore winds. That combo will make it lumpy and choppy. Honestly, Wednesday the 15th morning is your best bet, and even then, keep expectations in check. It’s not a classic, but it’s the only real window we’ve got.
Rusty out.

Information about the Avalon 15th Street Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Avalon 15th Street provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Avalon 15th Street can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

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 Avalon 15th Street 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.
