Avalon Point Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what we’ve got on the cards for Avalon Point over the next couple of weeks.

Right off the bat, this is a classic point break setup, with a consistent southwest groundswell running. The water temperature is sitting at a normal 65°F for this time of year, so nothing unusual there. There’s a bit of a slow start though. The first few days are rough with onshore winds and messy conditions, but hang tight, because there’s some great potential coming.

The first real nod goes to Sunday, July 2nd afternoon. The swell settles to a clean 6ft from the WSW with a 13-second period, and the wind goes totally glassy (0 mph). That’s a magic moment for a point break – clean, smooth, and really inviting. The combined energy is still moderate (1110), but it’s shaping up nicely for a solid session.

Then Monday, July 3rd keeps the good vibes rolling. Light offshore winds from the south in the morning and cross-off in the afternoon, with a clean 5ft swell (789-937 energy). It’s beginner-friendly, consistent, and the wind is kind. A perfect day for a longboard or a funboard.

Now, the real standout is Tuesday, August 4th morning. We’re looking at a solid 8ft swell from the WSW with a very long 18-second period. The energy jumps right up to 3927 – that’s strong. The wind is light and cross-off, keeping the faces clean. This is a serious groundswell, and at a point break like Avalon, it’ll line up beautifully. This one’s for the experienced surfers only – it’s going to be powerful.

Wednesday, August 5th morning is another cracker. Offshore winds from the southeast (3 mph) and the same 8ft, 16-second WSW swell with 3456 energy. Again, this is big and clean, but you’ll need your wits about you.

Things get a bit rowdy from August 7th onwards with strong winds and messy, blown-out surf – that’s when the kite surfers might be having more fun than us. But we bounce back.

Another big one to circle is Wednesday, August 12th morning. The swell shifts slightly more west, hitting 8ft with a long 18-second period, and we’ve got light offshore winds from the ESE. The energy is roaring at 5596 – that’s proper power. This is the biggest, cleanest groundswell of the whole outlook, and it’s pointing straight into Avalon’s sweet spot. Mark it down, but remember it’s a week and a half away, so things can shift.

The final mention is Thursday, August 13th morning – glassy conditions and a clean 6ft swell again. A lovely, clean way to wrap up the run.

Overall, for the next two weeks, the best bets for a clean, quality wave are Sunday, July 2nd afternoon for the glassy fun, and Tuesday, August 4th and Wednesday, August 12th mornings for the serious, powerful groundswell action. Crowds are likely at Avalon Point, so get in early for those glassy windows.

Rusty.
