The Lowdown
Right, let’s have a look at what’s on offer for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, mate, I’m going to be straight with you – this is a tough one. The entire 16-day window is basically a flat spell. There’s no surf worth paddling out for. We’ve got a run of "poor surf conditions" across every single session from now right through to the start of August. That’s a long gap with no recommendations whatsoever.
The only break we’ve got data for is Avalon 15th Street. It’s a beginner-friendly spot, fairly exposed to swell, and it likes a SE direction. The water temp is sitting at 77°F right now, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year – just a little extra warmth in the water.
But the swell is tiny. We’re looking at waves mostly between 0.7 ft and 3 ft, with periods so short – often 4 to 8 seconds – that there’s just no push. The combined energy never gets above 180 (moderate wave energy) for a brief moment on the 22nd, but even then, the quality is rated as poor. The wind does offer some clean windows – like on the 22nd and 23rd with gentle offshore or glassy conditions – but there’s simply not enough swell to ride.
Basically, for the next two weeks, you’re better off leaving the board in the car. It’s a blank run, and in this area, that’s not unusual when the summer patterns lock in. Forecasts can change, but right now, there’s nothing to get excited about.

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. Our Avalon 15th Street surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Avalon 15th Street) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. 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. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
