The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into what’s cooking at Eva.
The first half of this run is a bit of a mixed bag, but there’s some serious firepower waiting if you’ve got the patience.
We start off on Tuesday, August 4th, with a clean 4ft SW swell, but it’s a bit on the breezy side out of the WNW. The water temp is sitting at 57°, which is right about average for this time of year, so nothing crazy there. The energy is moderate (434), and it’s surfable, but the real juice hasn’t arrived yet.
Wednesday, August 5th, sees the swell jump to 6ft, still from the SW, with a nice 14-second period. The energy is now strong (1457), but the wind is cross-offshore, making it a bit tricky to find perfection. Still, there are waves to be had.
After a bit of a lull on Thursday and Friday with smaller, cleaner, but less powerful swell, things start to get interesting.
The standout session is shaping up for Monday, August 10th, afternoon. The wind swings offshore from the NW, you’ve got a solid 5ft SW groundswell with a 17-second period, and the energy is pumping (1593). This is a proper window of clean, lined-up waves for experienced surfers.
Then, hold onto your board. Tuesday, August 11th, is the absolute peak of this run. The swell is 7ft to 7ft, holding that long 16-17 second period, straight from the SW. The offshore NW wind is locked in, and the energy is massive (2155-2324). This is big, powerful, clean groundswell for experts only. If you’ve got the skills, this is the day.
Wednesday, August 12th, is a beast but a raw one. The swell hits a massive 13ft, with energy readings off the charts (13272-14820). The wind is cross-offshore, so it’s not going to be pristine. For paddle surfing, this is a serious, heavy-duty proposition only for the best. For a kite surfer, this setup would be a whole different story.
The second week from August 13th onward holds onto decent SW swell, often in the 5ft to 7ft range, with long periods and mostly clean conditions. The morning of August 13th and 14th’s afternoon session (with glassy, light wind) are worth a look. By the weekend of August 16th, the swell drops back to 3ft to 5ft, and the wind gets a bit messy, but there are still a few clean windows.
Overall, the first week is building, but August 11th is the standout. It’s big, it’s clean, and it’s powerful. Don’t sleep on the afternoon of the 10th either.
Stay safe out there, and paddle hard.
Rusty.

Information about the Eva Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Eva provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Eva can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Eva 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 (Eva) 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 Eva 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.
Eva is 24 km (15 miles) from the city of Geelong. If you plan a holiday in Torquay, look for hotels and other accommodation in Geelong. Geelong has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
