The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s put it in feet and miles per hour.
We’re looking at a quiet start, with nothing much to ride for the first few days. The water’s about 65°F, which is pretty standard for the season.
The real highlight is Sunday morning, August 2nd. We’re looking at a clean 5ft SSE swell with a long 12-second period, and the energy is solid (609). The wind is light from the NNW, keeping it glassy. That’s the session you want. The next best is Saturday afternoon, August 1st – a clean 4ft SSE swell, with a 9-second period and total glassed-off conditions. The energy is 382 (moderate wave energy). It’s a beach/sandbar setup, so don’t be surprised if it gets a bit crowded.
Later on, the morning of Saturday, August 8th, is a big one. A 7ft SE swell (10-second period) and 755 energy (moderate to strong) with a light offshore north wind. That’s a proper size, so it’s for the advanced folks. The morning of Sunday, August 9th, is also a solid option with a 6ft SE swell and clean conditions.
The second week looks a bit more uncertain with onshore wind and rain, so the Saturday and Sunday mornings (8th and 9th) are the best bets, but keep an eye on it as we get closer.
Rusty.

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