The Lowdown
Alright gang, Rusty here, with the straight talk. Looking at the next 16 days for Avalon 15th Street, we’re staring down a long, dry spell. The first real chance to get wet doesn't come until Monday, September 21st, meaning there’s a solid 10-day gap of nothing worthwhile before that.
The best of a quiet bunch will be Monday afternoon, September 21st. We’ve got a 4ft swell from the east, with a 8-second period. The real kicker is the clean, offshore breeze from the NNW, which will tidy up the lines. The combined energy sits at a moderate 194, so there’s a little bit of grunt in the water. For a beginner-friendly spot, this size is a solid choice, though you can expect some company.
The morning of the 21st will also have the same 4ft swell, but with a cross-offshore wind, which is still clean but not as perfect as the afternoon.
Before that, it’s a total write-off. Small, short-period windswell and poor winds keep things flat and messy. The water temperature is about normal for this time of year.
After the 21st, it drops off again. The 22nd gives us a 3ft to 2ft east swell, but the wind turns onshore, chopping it up. By the 23rd, it’s a tiny 2ft with a clean offshore breeze, but it’s barely enough to get your fins wet. The 24th sees a 3ft swell with a long 13-second period, but the cross-shore wind and cross-chop will ruin the ride.
So, your one and only real window is Monday, September 21st. The rest is a desert. It’s a quiet stretch, but it’ll turn around eventually. Keep the wax warm.
Rusty.

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.
