The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the menu for Avalon 15th Street over the next couple of weeks.
First off, I gotta be straight with you – the next week and a half are a real write-off. We're looking at a long, dry spell from Wednesday, September 2nd all the way through to the morning of Saturday, September 12th. That's a solid ten days of nothing but closeouts, onshore junk, and tiny dribblers. The water is sitting at a balmy 77°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, so at least you won't be cold while you're floating around waiting for a wave that never comes.
The real story, the one that's got my heart beating a little faster, is the stand-out window that finally shows up. Saturday, September 12th is the pick of the entire forecast. The morning kicks off with a clean 6ft east-northeast swell and a slight air, glassy vibe. The combined energy is a solid 410, which is proper moderate wave energy, and the offshore breeze from the west-northwest is going to comb that swell out beautifully. The afternoon holds steady at 6ft with a clean cross-off breeze. That's a solid, fun size that should be offering up some punchy lines. It's not overly big, so it’s a good bet for a wide range of skill levels, but it’s definitely the standout session.
Honestly, if you can wait, wait for that Saturday. The 11th of September shows a little pulse in the afternoon with 4ft and clean offshore winds, but the energy is only just waking up. Before that, there's nothing I'd recommend you paddle out for. So mark your calendar, keep your wax dry, and I'll see you in the water on the 12th.
Rusty.

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.
