The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming down the pipe for Avalon Point.
Right off the bat, this weekend is a write-off. Saturday the 18th is a mess with a big 13ft cross-on W swell at 19 mph, and the combined energy is a massive 4412 – that’s a lot of power, but it’s all lumpy and blown out. Not worth a look. We’ve got a gap of a few days of poor to marginal conditions before things start to turn.
The first real standout is Sunday the 19th morning. The swell drops to a solid 8ft from the WSW, but the magic is in the wind: glassy, with a light NW breeze at 3 mph. This is a major positive. The period is a long 14 seconds, so this is a proper groundswell. At a point break like Avalon Point, that long period will wrap in nicely with clean, well-shaped lines. The combined energy is still strong at 2160. This is excellent for experienced surfers; the 8ft height is a bit much for beginners. The water temp is 66°, which is about average for this time of year.
The next real highlight is a week away, on Sunday the 26th of July. The morning session has a 5ft WSW swell with a very long period of 18 seconds. That’s groundswell with serious energy (2083 combined). The wind is gentle and offshore from the SE, meaning clean, glassy faces. The point break setup here is perfect for that kind of period – it’ll hold shape and offer long rides. The afternoon bumps up to 7ft, still clean with a cross-offshore breeze, but the morning is the pick. This is your best bet in the whole 16-day window. Crowds are likely here, so get in early.
The last week of the month and into early August sees a mix of smaller, cleaner days, but nothing that stands out like the 19th and 26th. The 31st of July morning has a clean 5ft, and the 1st of August morning has a clean 4ft, both with light offshore winds, but they lack the real punch of the earlier swells. The 29th of July is a no-go – strong onshore winds and lumpy conditions.
Keep your eyes on the 19th morning and the 26th morning. Those are the ones.
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.
Avalon Point is 11 km (7 miles) from Mandurah. If you plan a holiday in Perth City Coast, look for hotels and other accommodation in Mandurah. Mandurah has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
