The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s break down Middleton Beach in feet. It’s a long look ahead, but the first part of the forecast is a real mess. Big swell, but the wind is howling, so the first few days are a no-go for a paddle.
The first real chance to get a wave is Thursday the 13th of August. The morning shows a 13ft SSW groundswell, with a very long period of 15 seconds, and a moderate offshore breeze from the WNW. The energy is solid at 8009 (moderate energy). This spot is very sheltered and inconsistent, so it’s not a guarantee, but for experienced surfers, it’s the best window early on. The water temp is about average for the time of year.
The real standout is Monday the 17th of August. The morning has an 12ft SW groundswell, with a very long period of 17 seconds, and a light cross-offshore breeze from the NNW. The energy is 7011 (moderate energy). For a break that’s inconsistent and very sheltered, this is a rare treat. The wind is light, so it’ll be clean. Crowds are possible sometimes. This is your best bet.
The Wednesday after that, the 19th of August, is also a good call. The morning has a 10ft SW swell, 15 seconds, with a moderate offshore wind from the W. Clean, moderate energy at 5205. Good for experienced surfers.
The rest of the outlook is either too windy, too big, or the swell fades. The first week is a write-off for paddle surfing – the wind is brutal. The second week is quieter, but the clear windows are there. If you’re a beginner, stay out of the water when it’s over 5ft. Anything over 8ft is expert-only.
Rusty.

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.
