The Lowdown

Alright, let's break it down. The first surf recommendation comes in on Friday morning, July 24th, but to be honest, the whole 16-day window is looking flat and quiet. The surf is tiny and the wind is mostly messy, so don't get your hopes up.

The only break in the mix is Avalon 15th Street. It's a beginner-friendly spot that breaks fairly consistently, but for this whole period, the swell is small. On Friday morning, you've got a weak 1ft swell from the SE, with a short period of 8 seconds, and a moderate cross-onshore breeze messing it up. Combined energy is only 30 (weak). The water temp is about average for the time of year.

The pattern doesn't change much. Saturday and Sunday are still small—2ft to 2ft—with cross-onshore or cross winds keeping things rough. The whole first week is a write-off for decent waves. The wind does swing cross-offshore on Wednesday the 29th and Thursday the 30th, which cleans things up, but the swell is still only 2ft to 2ft with short periods (7–8 seconds). It's glassy and clean, but tiny. Combined energy stays under 100 the whole time.

Into the second week, it's more of the same. The best looking conditions come around Thursday, August 6th, with a light offshore wind and a clean 3ft swell from the south, but the period is only 5 seconds, so it's weak and weak (47 combined energy). Saturday morning, August 8th, shows a clean 3ft with a 4-second period and light offshore breeze—clean but barely worth paddling out.

There are no standout days. Nothing gets over 3ft, and the longest period we see is 9 seconds, which is still short period. The wind is mostly onshore or cross-shore, so the quality is poor across the board. Crowds are possible at Avalon 15th Street, but with surf this small, it's unlikely to be an issue.

Overall, this is a flat spell. The surf is tiny, the wind is mostly messy, and there's nothing to get excited about. If you're desperate, the cleanest tiny waves will be on the mornings with offshore winds, but don't expect much. It's a quiet stretch.

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. 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.
