Table - best surf conditions forecast for Maslin Beach over the next 16 days.
Alright, what's the story, crew? Rusty here, and it's a grim picture for Maslin Beach for the next 16 days. We're looking at a real flat spell.
The first bit of hope, and it's a small one, shows up on the morning of Thursday, July 23rd. The wind goes glassy, and we get a 5-foot swell from the west-northwest. But the period is a short 5 seconds, so it'll be fat and weak. The wave energy is moderate at 126. The water temp is about 58°, which is a bit cooler than usual for this time of year. It's surfable, but "very ordinary" is the call. That's the only window.
Before that, from now until the 22nd, it's a total write-off. Tiny swell, a lot of onshore and cross-shore wind, and just poor conditions. You'll be looking at knee-high dribble at best.
After the 23rd, it's right back to the same story. Glassy mornings on the 24th and 25th, but with swell less than 1 foot, there's nothing to ride. The energy reading is near zero.
So, the honest truth? There's nothing to get excited about. The only paddle-worthy moment is that Thursday morning, and even then, it's a low-quality option. Maslin Beach is an inconsistent spot, and this 16-day run is a classic example of a total blank. Don't wax up your board expecting much.
Rusty.

Information about the Maslin Beach Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Maslin Beach provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Maslin Beach can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Maslin Beach 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 (Maslin Beach) 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 Maslin Beach 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.
