The Lowdown

G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’ve gotta be straight with you – the next 16 days are a bit of a write-off for 10th Street (Avalon). We’ve got a long stretch of basically nothing to get excited about. The first recommendation doesn’t pop up until well into the forecast, and even then, it’s a real struggle.

From Friday the 24th of July right through to the afternoon of Thursday the 6th of August, it’s a whole lot of poor surf conditions. The swell is tiny, mostly hanging around 0.7ft to 3ft, and the wind is either cross-on or cross for most of it, making things choppy and messy. The combined wave energy is weak, barely cracking 100 (reading as low as 4 up to 88), so there’s just no power in the water. The water temp is about average for this time of year.

Now, the only tiny blip on the radar comes on Thursday the 6th of August in the afternoon. It’s still not great, but it’s the best we’ve got. We get a bit of a S swell pushing 4ft, with a short period of 5 seconds. The wind goes light and cross-offshore from the WSW, which cleans things right up. The wave comment says “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions,” and I’d have to agree. It’s a 1/10 kind of day. The combined energy is still weak at 68. If you’re desperate for a paddle and don’t mind weak, small waves, this is your window. But honestly, this is a day for a longboard and low expectations. The break is inconsistent, so you’ll be waiting for sets.

The rest of the 16 days after that are back to tiny, poor surf. There’s a real gap from the 7th of August onward with nothing to recommend. It’s a dry spell, plain and simple. Keep an eye on the charts, because it can’t stay this flat forever.

Rusty.
