The Lowdown

G’day, Rusty here. Let’s cut to the chase. The next sixteen days are a bit of a mixed bag at Avalon Point, but there are definitely a couple of sessions worth getting wet for. We’re looking at a WSW swell window for the most part, with the periods starting out real long before they drop off and then rebuild. The water temp is sitting right around average for this time of year, so no surprises there.

We kick things off this Saturday morning, the 29th of August. It’s not huge, but there’s a clean energy in the water. A 3ft swell out of the WSW with a very long 19-second period, and a light offshore ESE breeze. The combined energy is moderate at 824. It’s glassy, clean, and a dead-set beginner-friendly wave. This is the pick of the first few days. The afternoon pushes up to 6ft with that same long period, and the energy jumps to a strong 1947. Still offshore, still clean – a proper fun afternoon for the experienced crew.

Sunday the 30th sees the swell bump up a touch to 7ft, but the wind swings around and puts a bit of cross-shore texture on it. The period is still long at 18 seconds, so there’s plenty of push, but it’s not as crisp as Saturday. By Monday the 31st, it gets messier. The wind turns cross-onshore and the surf quality drops right off for the rest of the day. Tuesday the 1st of September looks like a bit of a save. The morning brings a clean 7ft WSW swell with a cross-off breeze, energy at a strong 1894. It’s powerful and clean, but the period has dropped to 16 seconds so it’s not the same long-range groundswell. Still, a solid, surfable day.

After that, we hit a bit of a lull. Wednesday the 2nd and into Thursday the 3rd, the swell drops back to the 6ft range, but the wind is on it, making it choppy and poor. The real diamond in the rough is Thursday afternoon the 3rd of September. The swell is 7ft from the WSW, the period is a solid 14 seconds, and the wind goes totally glassy. The energy is moderate at 1677, and it’s clean – that’s the standout of the first week. A proper, clean point surf.

Friday the 4th is a complete write-off. Strong onshore breeze hits 40 to 45 km/h, and the surf is sloppy. If you’re into kites, this might be more your thing, but for paddle surfing, forget it. The weekend of the 5th and 6th sees a big pulse of energy. Saturday afternoon pumps in a 13ft swell with energy at a very strong 5105, but it’s lumpy and cross-shore. Sunday the 6th still has 10ft waves but with a clean cross-off wind – big and powerful, but only for the experts.

The second week gets a bit more drawn out. The swell stays in the 5ft to 6ft range for much of it, with some windows of clean conditions. Tuesday the 8th of September has a nice, clean morning with a 4ft, 17-second swell and a light offshore. It’s small but fun. Then the energy builds again. Friday the 11th of September is a big one – a 10ft swell with energy at a massive 5118. The direction is straight W, and the period is 17 seconds. It’ll be powerful, but the cross-onshore breeze is a letdown, making it messy. The weekend after that goes a bit quiet, with some onshore and cross-onshore winds, and the swell fading back to the 6ft to 7ft range.

So, the true standouts are Saturday morning the 29th for the clean, long-period glass, and Thursday afternoon the 3rd of September for the bigger, glassy point surf. The long-period swells (like the 19-second one on Saturday) are best at a point like Avalon, but they can break a bit straight if you’re used to a beach break. Keep an eye on the wind for the rest, and don’t be afraid to head out when it’s clean. Over and out. – 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.
