Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards.

We’re looking at Middleton Beach, and it kicks off pretty slow. The first couple of days are nothing to write home about. Sunday the 5th has some cross-off wind and weak surf just around 4 ft to 4 ft with moderate energy (978). The water temp is about average for this time of year. Honestly, not worth paddling out unless you’re desperate for a splash. There’s a bit of a gap before things get interesting.

Now, Monday the 6th is when we see the first real standout. A solid 8 ft groundswell from the SW starts showing up in the morning, with a 16-second period (very long period). The combined swell energy is moderate to strong (3104). And here’s the kicker: the wind is glassy, from the ESE at just 3 mph. That’s dreamy clean conditions. The break is inconsistent, so be patient between sets, but when they come, they’ll have real push. That’s your best bet for the week for a clean session. It’s big enough (over 5 ft) that it’s not for groms, but not over 8 ft yet, so manageable for a decent intermediate.

Tuesday the 7th gets even bigger: 12 ft sets in the morning, still from the SSW with that lovely long 16-second period. Swell energy jumps to strong (6340). Wind is cross-off from the NW at only 6 mph. This is excellent surf, but it’s now over 8 ft, so experts only. The wind drops to glass or cross-off again on Wednesday the 8th, with 7 ft to 10 ft swells clean in the morning. Thursday the 9th sees offshore wind from the WNW at 12 mph and a 8 ft SSW swell – clean, strong, and punchy. That morning session Thursday is another gem.

The weekend of the 12th and 13th holds more good news. Sunday the 12th morning has an 8 ft SSW groundswell with offshore wind from the NW at 6 mph, and by the afternoon it goes completely glassy with a 5 ft, 17-second groundswell – that’s a very long period. Expect clean, well-shaped waves, but that long period might make it a bit tricky on a beach break; a lot of energy in each wave. Monday the 13th morning delivers another absolute standout: 12 ft from the SSW, 16-second period, combined energy (5233), and gentle offshore wind from the WNW. That’s big, powerful, and clean – again, for experts only, but it’s the pick of the whole period for sheer power and quality.

The second week settles a bit but still offers solid opportunities. Tuesday the 14th has glassy conditions in the afternoon with a 6 ft SW swell – a nice, manageable clean-up session. The following week has more decent 7 ft to 10 ft swells, but winds are a bit more mixed, with some cross-off and onshore days. Still, there are plenty of good moments.

One thing: this spot is very sheltered, so it doesn’t get everything. On the 18th, there’s a massive 16 ft SSW swell on the charts, but with onshore wind from the ESE, it’s going to be a mess – not for paddling, but maybe for hardcore kite surfers if that’s your thing.

Overall, the standout sessions are Monday the 6th morning for clean, manageable size, and Monday the 13th morning for big, powerful, expert-level waves. Get on it.

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.

Middleton Beach is 8 km (5 miles) from Albany. If you plan a holiday in Far South of Western Australia, look for hotels and other accommodation in Albany. Albany has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
