Avalon Point Surf Forecast and Surf Report

G'day, I'm Rusty. Let's have a look at what Avalon Point is serving up over the next couple of weeks.

Alright, we've got a slow start but the second half of the first week is where it's at. The water temp is sitting at 67°, which is pretty much normal for this time of year.

Friday the 10th is a bit of a write-off. The swell is 5ft from the WSW but the wind is messy, cross and cross-off, with a combined energy of 868. It's a marginal call. Saturday the 11th isn't much better – the swell drops to 4ft on the morning, but the wind is cleaner. The energy is down to 596. It's not doing much.

Then Sunday the 12th kicks off. The morning is clear with an offshore ESE breeze at 6 mph, and the swell is 6ft from the WSW with a 15-second period. That's a solid groundswell, and the combined energy is 1937. The waves at this point break will be well-shaped with that long period. The breeze is light, so it'll be clean. This is the standout for the period. The afternoon is still good, 5ft with the same period, but the wind goes cross-off. It's still a great session.

Monday the 13th is another cracker. Morning sees 7ft of WSW swell at 17 seconds, with a combined energy of 2680. The wind is offshore from the SE at 6 mph. This is experienced surfer territory, pure and simple. The afternoon is 7ft, 16-second period, energy of 2226, with a light cross-off breeze. Tuesday the 14th keeps the run going: 7ft in the morning, 16 seconds, energy 1894, and clean cross-off breeze. The afternoon is 6ft, 15 seconds, energy 1567, and glassy conditions.

Wednesday the 15th turns ugly. The wind cranks up from the North at 22 mph, creating a lumpy cross-shore chop. The swell is 5ft, but the energy of 1273 means nothing with that wind. Thursday the 16th is even worse for the morning, with onshore wind and 8ft of messy swell. The afternoon is a bit better with a cross breeze, but it's still marginal.

From Friday the 17th through to Saturday the 18th, it's a write-off. Strong onshore winds, lumpy, and messy. The swell gets up to 10ft on the Saturday afternoon with a combined energy of 4907, but the wind is howling at 25 mph from the SSW. That's a kite-surfing setup, not a paddle one.

Then comes Sunday the 19th. This is a long-range standout, but it's promising. The morning is glassy with a 10ft, 15-second swell from the WSW, combined energy of 4270. The afternoon is even bigger at 12ft, 14 seconds, and still glassy. That's big, powerful, and clean. Only for the hardcore crew. Keep an eye on this one.

The following week, starting Monday the 20th, the swell drops back to 7ft with a 12-second period and a gentle offshore. Clean but not as epic. Tuesday the 21st afternoon sees a 6ft, 15-second swell with a light breeze – that's a nice little window. Wednesday the 22nd and Thursday the 23rd both have solid 8ft and 6ft swells, with clean conditions. Friday the 24th morning is glassy with 5ft, but the afternoon turns onshore, ruining it. The last day, Saturday the 25th, is blown out with strong onshore winds and 10ft of messy swell.

So, the best of the best is Sunday the 12th and Monday the 13th. The long-range Sunday the 19th is a wildcard that could be epic if it holds.

Rusty.
