The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at Avalon Point. The window opens with a whole lot of nothing for the first few days. We’re staring down the barrel of a massive, windy, blown-out mess from Saturday the 8th right through the start of the week. That big WSW groundswell is pumping hard, but the wind is a dealbreaker. We’ve got near gale-force cross and cross-onshore winds, and the combined swell energy is monstrous, hitting 12095 in the afternoon, but it’s a total white-knuckle washing machine. No joy there.
The first chance of anything worth paddling out for comes on Tuesday the 11th. The morning sees a solid 14.8 ft swell from the WSW, with a very long 17-second period. The energy is still strong at 10100. The wind is a moderate cross-shore, so it’s a bit lumpy, but it’s a step in the right direction. It’s still a marginal call, but for the experienced crew, there’s something to work with. The water temp is about what you’d expect for this time of year.
The real highlight, the standout window, is the morning of Friday the 14th. We’ve got a clean 7.2 ft swell from the WSW, a 16-second period, and a light offshore breeze from the NE. That’s a crispy, clean setup. The combined energy is moderate at 2429, so it’s not a beast, but it’s a proper, fun-sized groundswell with clean conditions. This is the one to circle in the calendar.
The following Saturday morning is a bit messy with a cross-shore breeze, but by Sunday the 16th, we get glass. The morning of the 16th is dead calm, with a clean 7.2 ft swell from the west. It’s a beautiful, glassy morning. The swell period drops to 13 seconds, so it’s a bit shorter, but the lack of any wind makes it a super clean session. The energy is moderate at 1710.
Monday the 17th still has some decent 9.8 ft west swell with a 17-second period, but the wind is light and variable. It’s a marginal call, but there’s potential. After that, the wind turns nasty again and the surf gets messy and blown out for the rest of the run. The last week is a washout with strong onshores and poor conditions, so don’t get your hopes up for the 22nd or 23rd.
If you’re looking for the best of the bunch, it’s Friday the 14th morning for the clean offshore conditions and that long-period groundswell, or Sunday the 16th morning for the pure glass. Crowds are often a factor here, so expect company on those clean days.

Information about the Avalon Point Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Avalon Point provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Avalon Point can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Avalon Point 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 Point) 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 Point 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.
Avalon Point is 11 km (7 miles) from Mandurah. If you plan a holiday in Perth City Coast, look for hotels and other accommodation in Mandurah. Mandurah has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
