The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming our way for Avalon Point.

The next couple of days are a write-off, to be honest. We’ve got a solid 8ft to 12ft of swell, but the wind is howling from the NW and WSW at 31–34 mph, turning it into a messy, blown-out scene. Dangerous conditions for anyone but the most experienced, and even then it’s just not enjoyable. The combined energy is massive (5225 and 3770), but with that wind, it’s a no-go. We’ll have to sit tight through Monday and Tuesday.

The first real chance to get wet comes Thursday the 20th. The wind drops right out, going glassy from the SE at just 3 mph. That 8ft WSW groundswell with a 16-second period will have some long lines and power. The combined swell energy is still strong (3574), but for experienced surfers only – this is a big, clean wave. Water temp is 63°, which is a bit colder than normal for this time of year, so you’ll want a good wetsuit.

Friday morning the 21st keeps the clean theme going with light cross-offshore winds and a 7ft swell from the WSW. Still quality waves, but it’s mellowing out. Saturday the 22nd is a standout – glassy conditions again in the morning with a clean 7ft swell from the WSW. The energy is solid (1919) and the offshore NNE breeze should really groom the waves at this point. This is the pick of the first week. Crowds are likely here, especially on a Saturday, but with conditions like these, it’s worth it.

Sunday the 23rd sees the wind swing back onshore and the swell jumps back up to 10ft, but with a short 8-second period and strong wind, it’s back to being a mess.

We’ve got a bit of a gap mid-week, with Monday and Tuesday offering average to poor conditions and strong cross-shore winds. The swell drops to 6ft on Tuesday the 25th, but the wind goes offshore from the ESE at 3 mph, making for clean, rideable waves for the more experienced surfer. It’s not huge, but it’s a nice little window.

The next true standout is a long way out – on Saturday, August 29th. The forecast shows a powerful 13ft W swell with a long 17-second period, and combined energy readings of 8721. That’s a lot of water moving. The wind is cross-shore from the N at 12 mph, so it’ll have some texture but should be surfable for experts only. At this size and with this period, it’ll be a heavy, powerful wave best suited to the point here at Avalon. This is a promising outlook, but it’s a long-range call, so keep an eye on the updates.

Then on September 1st, we get a glassy morning with an 12ft WSW swell (16-second period) – another clean, powerful day for experienced surfers. Very promising way to kick off September.

For the most part, Avalon Point is offering surf for the confident crew this period. Beginners should stay out of the water during the bigger days (over 8ft). The standout mornings are August 22nd, and the long-range prospect on August 29th.

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.
