The Lowdown
Alright, crew, let's talk about what's going on at Avalon Point. This is a point break, it's fairly consistent, and it's a good spot for beginners. The water's sitting at about 63°, which is a touch colder than normal for this time of year, so you might want a spring suit.
We've got a bit of a slow start. The first real chance is on Saturday morning, August 15th. We're looking at a 6ft swell from the WSW, but the wind is a cross-shore from the NNE at 9 mph, bringing a little chop. It's not huge, but the energy is moderate (1131). Sunday the 16th is similar, with a bit more size – 6ft to 6ft – but that north wind picks up to 12-19 mph, making it lumpy. It's not the cleanest, but it's surfable.
Then we hit a rough patch from Monday the 17th into Wednesday. The swell gets big, pushing 12ft with strong energy (6845), but it's messy with strong cross-onshore winds and rain. That's kite-surfing weather, not for paddling. It settles down a bit on Thursday the 20th, with an 8ft WSW swell and a light cross-shore from the north in the morning, giving a little more order. The energy is solid (3299).
Now, the standout. Friday the 21st of August is the one. We've got a clean 7ft swell from the WSW, period around 15 seconds, and a light offshore breeze from the ESE. That's a recipe for clean, lined-up waves at the point, with solid energy (1672). It's a bit big for total beginners, but for experienced surfers, it's going to be excellent.
Saturday the 22nd is another gem. The morning brings glassy conditions with a 6ft WSW swell. The wind is off the land, dead calm, and the energy is strong (2070). That's a magic window for a long, smooth session.
The rest of the forecast has some decent windows. Sunday the 23rd has a clean morning with a 6ft swell and a light cross-offshore breeze. Then Tuesday the 25th has another glassy morning with a 6ft swell. The following week, Thursday the 27th and Friday the 28th of August are looking promising with clean conditions, a 5ft to 6ft swell, and glassy or light offshore winds. The swell energy is moderate to strong. These are all long-range promises, but they look good.
So, to sum it up: the first week is a bit of a mixed bag. You've got some small, choppy days, then a big, messy period. The real winners are Friday the 21st and Saturday the 22nd. Mark them. The second week has some potential, but it's a long way out. Keep your eyes on the forecasts.

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.
