The Lowdown
Alright, let’s break it down. The only spot on the map is Avalon Point, and this forecast is a rollercoaster. If you’ve got patience and the skill to handle it, there are some real windows.
We kick off Sunday morning, August 9th, with a big push of WSW groundswell at 12 feet and a very long 17-second period. The combined energy is strong at 5733. Water temp is about 65°F, normal for this time. That size is for experienced surfers only – beginners stay out. The wind is a light cross-on at 6 mph, so it’s okay, but by afternoon the wind jumps to 12 mph and it gets messy.
Monday, August 10th, is a total loss. Strong winds at 28 mph make a mess of the 10-foot swell. Don’t bother.
Tuesday, August 11th, is the first standout. Morning brings a clean 12-foot swell with a 16-second period, and the wind turns cross-offshore from the south at 12 mph. The energy is huge at 5815. This is for the big-dog crew only – powerful and clean. Afternoon gets choppy.
Wednesday, August 12th, the swell drops to 7 feet, but the wind is all over the place. Not worth it.
Now, Thursday, August 13th, and Friday, August 14th, are the real gems. Both mornings have clean conditions with light, almost offshore breezes from the northeast. The swell holds at a solid 7 to 7 feet from the WSW with a long 16 to 17-second period. Energy is in the 2000s – solid, powerful, and clean. This is the sweet spot for the experienced surfer.
Saturday, August 15th, the swell drops to 5 feet. The morning is lumpy, but the afternoon turns glassy with a 14-second period. That’s a fun window for a bigger board.
Sunday, August 16th, and Monday, August 17th, see another pulse. Monday morning has a big 12-foot WSW swell with an 18-second period and massive energy of 7623. The wind is cross-on from the southwest at 12 mph, so it’s choppy but powerful. Experts only.
The second week from Tuesday, August 18th, onward is mostly messy or small. The standout in the long-range is Thursday, August 20th. The morning is glassy with a clean 8-foot WSW swell at 14 seconds and energy of 2069. That’s a rare, clean window for the experienced surfer.
After that, Friday, August 21st, has a clean morning with 6-foot swell, but then it gets smaller and windier into the final weekend. Sunday, August 23rd, sees a bump to 8 feet but it’s blown out. Monday, August 24th, is a washout with strong onshore winds.
Bottom line: the best bets are the mornings of Thursday, August 13th, and Friday, August 14th for clean, powerful surf. For a bigger challenge, the mornings of Tuesday, August 11th, and Monday, August 17th, offer heavy, long-period groundswell but come with more wind. The long-range glassy morning on Thursday, August 20th, is worth noting, but it’s a week and a half out, so keep an eye on it.

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.
