Alright, grab a coffee and listen up. Rusty here.
First up, gotta be straight with you. This current outlook for Maslin Beach is a tough one. Looking over the next 16 days, the surf just isn't turning it on. There are no good options on the table whatsoever. It's a real blank run for this stretch of coast.
We start off flat. Tuesday the 7th through to Friday the 10th, there’s basically nothing with any push. The energy reading is zero or just a measly 2 or 3 (weak)—you're better off doing something else. Temps are around 59°, which is about normal for the time of year thanks to a tiny anomaly of -1°.
Then around Saturday the 11th, we see a pulse of energy. The combined swell energy hits 102 (moderate) on the Saturday morning with a short-period 5-second windswell from the WNW, pushing 5ft. By Saturday afternoon, that jumps to 212 (moderate) and a 6ft swell from the WSW. Sounds big, but it's all short-period junky stuff. The wind is a strong cross-onshore at 25 mph on Saturday morning, then a fresh cross-onshore at 19 mph. This beach and reef setup is going to be a complete mess. Honestly, with those winds and that lumpy, short-period swell, it looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. Sunday the 12th is similar: 4ft to 4ft, still short period, with strong 19 mph onshore winds. That's a no-go.
From Monday the 13th onwards, we drop right back down. The swell fades to under 3ft for nearly a week straight, with most days seeing tiny 0.3ft to 1ft waves. There is very little energy to speak of; most readings sit below 100 (weak) often in the single digits. The conditions do occasionally clean up with glassy mornings on Wednesday the 15th and Thursday the 16th, but there’s just no swell to ride.
There is one small blip on the horizon. Around Friday the 17th and Saturday the 18th, a northerly windswell kicks up to about 3ft, with combined energy readings of 39 to 83 (weak to moderate). But it's short-period (4-5 seconds) and the wind is cross-shore. It won't be clean and it won't be powerful.
Because the forecast window is so long, things can change, but for now, we’re in a dry spell. It’s not unusual for this stretch to go quiet like this, so don’t lose hope. Check back in a few days.
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.
