The Lowdown

G’day, it’s Rusty here. Let’s give it to you straight for Avalon Point. We’ve got a full 16-day window ahead, but it’s not all gonna be pretty. The first few days are a write-off, and we have to wait until next week to find any real diamonds. The water’s sitting about a degree colder than usual for this time of year, so grab the thicker rubber for that first surf.

The opening stretch, from Sunday the 16th through the 20th, is a bit of a mess. We’ve got a solid swell showing up, but the wind is all over the shop. Sunday’s got a moderate cross-shore breeze with a chop on it, and Monday the 17th is a straight-up mess—howling cross-onshore wind and the swell jumps to 13ft. That’s a lot of raw energy (8409) but it’s gonna be blown apart. Not worth a paddle. Tuesday the 18th brings a big, clean-ish 12ft swell (5409 energy) but the wind is on it, making things lumpy. Don’t get too excited. Wednesday and Thursday are much the same—plenty of size but poor conditions. There’s a lot of swell energy around, but you’ll be fighting the wind and chop the whole time.

Now, here’s where it gets interesting. Friday the 21st is our first real standout. The morning is looking clean with a light offshore breeze. We’ve got an 8ft WSW groundswell (3040 energy) rolling in, and that point should be handling it beautifully. It’s a good size for experienced surfers, and that offshore wind will have it looking glassy. This is the one to circle on the calendar.

The weekend after that stays okay. Saturday the 22nd has a clean afternoon with a 5ft swell (1310 energy) and a light offshore breeze. Then Sunday the 23rd sees the wind swing offshore and stay there, with a 6ft WSW swell (1174 energy) giving us clean, fun waves. Monday the 24th drops off in size and the wind goes bad again, so the run ends there.

We then hit a poor stretch until the following week. Tuesday the 25th through Thursday the 28th is a mix of onshore wind, chop, and a few bigger swells that are just too messy to handle. There’s a period of about four days where I’d rather be doing something else.

But hold on, because the last day of the run, Monday the 31st, is another true standout. It’s a long way off, so treat it as promising but not locked in. The forecast shows a clean morning with a light offshore breeze and a 4ft W swell (754 energy). It’s smaller, but it’ll be clean and glassy. That’s the kind of session you’ll be stoked on.

So, if you’re keen, Friday the 21st is the big one—size, direction, and clean wind. Sunday the 23rd is the safe bet for a fun, clean session. The long-range Monday the 31st is the one to dream about, but don't book the day off work just yet. The rest is either blown out or just plain flat. Stay stoked.

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.
