The Lowdown
Alright, here’s the rundown for Middleton Beach over the next couple of weeks. It’s a mixed bag – we’ve got some serious size coming through, but you’ll have to pick your windows with the wind. The water temp is 65°F, which is much warmer than usual for this time of year, so that’s a nice surprise.
Starting off Monday the 10th, we see a 13ft swell from the SW, but a 25 mph cross-off wind and questionable tide are making it a no-go. Monday afternoon is 16ft but still messy. Tuesday the 11th keeps it big: 20ft and 16ft from the SSW with a 16-second period, but the wind is cross-off, and the combined energy is huge – 17,949 and 13,916 – but it’s not clean.
Wednesday the 12th morning is where it gets good for the experienced crew. We’ve got a 15ft SSW swell with a 15-second period, and an offshore wind from the W at 12 mph. Combined energy is 7,982, and it’s clean. That’s a standout for experts.
Thursday the 13th morning is another winner: 13ft from the SSW, 17-second period, gentle offshore from the WNW at 9 mph, and combined energy at 9,296. Afternoon is similar strength.
The weekend sees a drop-off. Friday the 14th has 12ft but crossover winds. Saturday the 15th is smaller at 8ft with a light cross-off, still clean. Sunday the 16th offers around 8ft with moderate wind.
In the second week, the big one is Saturday the 22nd morning – a massive 21ft from the WSW at a 16-second period, with a strong offshore wind from the WNW at 25 mph. Combined energy is 33,546. That’s for experts only, and it’ll be hard to paddle into.
Then on Sunday the 23rd morning, we get glassy conditions. 10ft from the SSW, light S wind at 3 mph, combined energy 4,132. That’s clean, glassy, and manageable for intermediate surfers.
After that, the 24th and 25th drop into poor conditions with near-gale winds and messy swell.
Best bets: Wednesday the 12th morning for the hardcore, Saturday the 22nd morning for the big-wave specialists, and Sunday the 23rd morning for a clean session. For the rest, pick your moment.

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