The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this is a quiet stretch for Avalon 15th Street. The 16-day window starts with a whole lot of nothing on offer, and honestly, it doesn’t really get going. The first few days are a write-off; we’re looking at a gap of several days with no real surf to recommend.
Thursday 23rd July kicks things off, but it’s a flat start. Tiny 2ft SSE swell with a short 8-second period and weak energy (77) is not doing anyone any favours. The morning has a cross-off wind, but the wave state is just “poor surf conditions.” Afternoon gets worse with a cross-on wind. Honestly, this is more of a paddleboard session than a surf.
Friday 24th through to Sunday 27th July are all the same story. Swell stays tiny, mostly under 3ft, with periods all over the place but never delivering any push. The wind is mostly cross or cross-on, adding chop. The combined energy is weak, stuck in the 40s and 50s. There’s one moment on Sunday 26th morning when it goes glassy with 1ft SE swell, but it’s still just poor surf. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing unusual.
The rest of the first week and into the second week is a blur of tiny, weak swells. Thursday 30th July morning has a clean 2ft SSE swell (9 seconds, 77 energy) with a cross-off breeze, but it’s still just knee-high dribble. Saturday 1st August morning has a clean offshore wind (NNW 15 km/h) but only 1ft SE swell – you’d be scratching for a wave.
The only real standout, if you can call it that, is the Wednesday 5th August morning. Glassy conditions, 1ft SSE swell, and it’s clean. But it’s tiny. For a beginner, that’s a safe, soft day. For anyone else, it’s a flat spell. The final days of the outlook are more of the same – small, weak, and messy.
So, bottom line: there is no good surf in this 16-day window. The swell is too small, the energy is too weak, and the winds are rarely favourable. It’s a true blank run for the area. Sometimes it just goes quiet. Forecasts can change, but right now, I’d leave the board at home.
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.
