The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. There’s a bit of a wait for clean waves at Avalon Point, but once it gets going, it’s got some serious potential. The standout mornings are the real deal—glassy conditions and solid groundswell, though the size calls for experienced surfers. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing unusual there.
The first real shot comes Saturday morning, August 22nd. Glassy as a mirror, swell head-high at 6.6ft from the WSW, with a super long 16-second period—proper groundswell that’ll wrap around this point beautifully. Energy is massive at 2068, so expect powerful, clean lines. Only for experienced surfers, though.
Saturday afternoon, the wind swings cross and the quality drops out. Sunday morning, August 23rd, is cleaner with a lighter cross-off breeze, but the swell drops to 4.3ft. Still fun, but not the standout.
Monday morning, August 24th, is another glassy gem: 6.6ft WSW swell, 14-second period, and calm conditions. Energy’s strong at 1570. Again, expert territory, but the point will be a ripper.
Tuesday, August 25th, gets messy with cross-onshore winds and choppy conditions. Wednesday, August 26th, sees a big jump in swell—11.5ft with a 19-second period—but the wind is fresh cross-onshore, making it a lumpy mess. Not for paddling.
Thursday and Friday, August 27th–28th, offer some cleaner windows, but the swell is mixed and winds aren’t perfect. The real next highlight is Monday, August 31st, in the afternoon: clean cross-off breeze, 6.2ft WSW swell with a long 17-second period, and high energy at 2236. Excellent conditions for experienced surfers.
Then we hit a bit of a lull into early September. Morning of Wednesday, September 3rd, is glassy again with 6.6ft WSW swell at 13 seconds—solid energy at 1339, and the point will be clean. Best for the week ahead. After that, winds turn onshore and the surf gets sloppy until the final standout.
Sunday morning, September 6th, wraps it up beautifully: glassy conditions, 5.6ft WSW swell with a nice 13-second period, energy at 1571. Excellent conditions for experienced surfers. That’s your best bet in the second week.
Summing up: Saturday August 22nd and Monday August 31st mornings are the top picks—both glassy, strong WSW groundswell with long periods. Avalon Point handles this direction well, and with the point setup, these long-period swells will shape up nicely. Crowds are likely here, so get in early.

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.
