The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it. We’ve got a window of surf on offer, but it’s a real mixed bag with some serious wind to work through.
The pattern starts with a pulse of powerful, long-period groundswell from the WSW, but it’s going to take a few days for the wind to play nice. The water temp is sitting at 66°F, which is basically spot on for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The action kicks off on Friday the 7th of August. The swell is already up at 8ft, with a 15-second period, but that 12 mph cross-onshore wind is going to chop it up. It’s a bit of a raw, messy start. Saturday the 8th is a write-off for paddle surfing—the wind is screaming 31 mph with a cross-shore, making a mess of the 16ft swell. The combined energy is a massive 9274, but that’s more of a kite-surfing scene than something you’d want to paddle into.
Sunday the 9th is where we start to see a glimmer. The swell drops to 12ft, but the wind goes light and onshore at 6 mph. It’s still a bit lumpy, but the potential is there (5733 energy). It’s a long-period 17-second swell, which will be better for the point. There’s a real standout on Tuesday the 11th of August. The morning session looks clean with a 15ft WSW swell, 17-second period, and a light cross-offshore breeze. The combined energy is a massive 12246. This is the pick of the first week. It’s big, powerful, long-period groundswell with clean conditions. This is definitely for the experienced crew only.
The following days are a mixed bag of onshore winds and lumpy conditions. A real gem pops up on Friday the 14th of August. The afternoon goes glassy, with a 7ft, 16-second swell. That’s a beautiful setup for a point break. Then again on Saturday the 15th of August, the afternoon goes glassy again with a 10ft, 14-second swell from the W. That’s a proper session waiting to happen.
As we push into the second week, the swells hang around but the wind gets more aggressive. The long-range standout is on Saturday the 22nd of August. It’s a glassy morning with a 7ft, 12-second swell from the WSW (1356 energy). The conditions will be clean, but it’s a smaller, shorter-period swell, so it’ll be fun but not the power of the big groundswell earlier. It’s a promising call, but we’re a ways out. The following days are a washout with onshore winds and poor conditions.
So, if you’re an experienced surfer, the absolute standout is Tuesday the 11th of August. For clean, glassy conditions, the afternoons of Friday the 14th and Saturday the 15th are your best bet.
Rusty.

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.
