Alright folks, let’s have a look at what’s coming up for 10th Street (Avalon) over the next couple of weeks. Right now, there’s barely a ripple – Monday afternoon the 6th has a weak 1ft south-east windswell with onshore wind, and the water temperature is sitting at 77°, which is a solid 6° warmer than usual for this time of year. That’s pretty weird, but it doesn’t help the surf. The whole first week is a write-off: flat, choppy, or just ordinary conditions. You’ll be waiting a long time for anything decent.
Finally, after a gap of nearly a week, Monday morning the 13th of July brings a pulse of east swell at 8ft. The period is short at 7 seconds, but the wind is light cross-off from the north-northeast, so the surface should be clean. The combined energy is strong, measuring 539 – that’s proper power. This is a beach/jetty setup, and with a swell that size it’s going to be too much for beginners; only experienced surfers should paddle out. The wave direction (east) is not far off the optimum north-east, so it’ll wrap in okay. Expect some crowds, because this spot can get busy sometimes. Tuesday morning the 14th is another good window: 7ft east swell, 9-second period, cross-off wind from the west-southwest, and energy of 580. Again, clean conditions but size means expert-only stuff. By Tuesday afternoon the wind swings onshore and the quality drops.
After that the swell fades fast. Wednesday the 15th has smaller 3ft east swell with cross-off wind, but it’s very ordinary – just surfable at best. Then it goes tiny again through the rest of the week and into the next. The 16th onwards is pretty much flat, with swell heights below 2ft and no score. The long-range into the 20th shows no improvement – just weak little SE windswell and onshore wind.
So the standouts are clear: Monday morning the 13th and Tuesday morning the 14th. Both offer the best size and cleanest conditions of the whole period. If you’re experienced and can handle a solid 6ft-plus day, those sessions are your window. Otherwise, it’s a long wait for nothing.
