The Lowdown
Righto, I'm looking at Walton Rocks (Power Plant), a beach and reef set-up that's pretty exposed to the north-east. To be honest, mate, the next 16 days are going to be a tough stretch for a paddle surfer. The combined energy of all swells directed here is consistently weak, with values often in the low single digits or teens (e.g. 36), barely enough to push a log around. The water temp is sitting at 84°, which is a normal 0.9° cooler than average for this time of year.
The whole outlook is a flat spell. From now through to at least Sunday the 25th of August, the wave comment is repeatedly "poor surf conditions". We're looking at tiny swell heights, mostly around 0.3ft to 2ft, with periods all under 8 seconds. That's windswell at best, not any proper groundswell. There's not a single morning or afternoon session that looks worth paddling out for.
Even though the breaks are very consistent, meaning it always has some kind of wave, everything on offer is too small and weak. The wind does clean up occasionally—like early Wednesday morning the 12th with light offshore breezes, and a few glassy moments early on Thursday the 20th—but with a swell height of just 0.7ft to 1ft, it's not going to produce a rideable wave. With that tiny, weak energy and the frequent cross-shore or onshore winds, this set-up would be far more interesting for a kite surfer than someone on a paddle board.
It's a blank run, and for an area like this, that's a bit more normal when the ocean goes to sleep. Forecasts can always change, but right now, there's nothing to recommend.
