The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s shaping up for Avalon Point.
We’ve got a solid run of swell on the cards, but the winds are gonna be the big talking point. The first standout is Thursday morning, 13 August. The ocean is serving up a clean 7ft groundswell out of the WSW with a very long 17 second period, and the wind is dead glassy – ENE at just 3 mph. That’s a recipe for silky smooth lines. The combined wave energy is huge at 2862, so there’s plenty of punch. This is for experienced surfers, and honestly, it’s the best you’re going to get. The water is sitting at 64°, which is about normal for this time of year, so no surprises there.
Thursday afternoon is still solid with the same 7ft swell, but the wind swings cross-shore, putting a bit of chop on the face. Not the same magic.
Friday morning, 14 August, is another strong option. The swell is still a meaty 7ft from the WSW, and the 16 second period keeps it powerful. The NE wind at 6 mph is cross-offshore, keeping the surface clean. Wave energy is 2198. Another session for the experienced crew.
Saturday morning, 15 August, the swell drops to 6ft and the wind picks up, making it a bit messy. Not the day.
Sunday afternoon, 16 August, offers a good window. The swell is back up to 7ft WSW, and the NE wind at 9 mph is cross-offshore, leaving it clean. Wave energy is 1909. Again, this is for experienced surfers.
Now, the second week opens with a wild card. Monday, 17 August, is a write-off with strong onshore winds, but the swell is pumping. Then Tuesday, 18 August, has a huge 12ft WSW swell, but it’s messy with cross-shore wind. For experienced surfers only, and only if you’re desperate.
The real standout of the second week is Saturday morning, 22 August. It’s a glassy, 10ft swell from the WSW with a 15 second period. The wind is dead calm, so it’s going to be perfect. The wave energy is a massive 3427. This is excellent, but it’s a long way out so keep an eye on it. The 10ft is only for experts.
The rest of the window is a mix of onshore winds and dropping swell. The last few days of the month are poor, with small, choppy waves.
So, the best bets are clear: Thursday morning, 13 August for the most perfect conditions, and Saturday morning, 22 August for a potential big, clean session. The crowds at Avalon Point can be a problem, so get in early.
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.
