The Lowdown
Alright, listen up, crew. Rusty here, and I’ve been staring at the charts for our little corner of the world. The next couple of weeks are a proper mixed bag, so let’s get into it.
The first real session to get excited about is late August, but there’s a bit of a lull before that. The main event looks to be a good run of clean waves around the 29th and 30th, and then there’s some serious size on the horizon for September, though that comes with its own issues.
Easky Right is our only play. It’s a reef setup that handles a north-west to west swell, and it’s fairly consistent, so we know it’ll try to fire. The crowd factor is worth a mention – it can be a popular spot.
Monday the 24th and Tuesday the 25th of August are your entry point. Monday afternoon sees a 5 ft swell from the WNW with a period of 10 seconds, and with a light cross-off breeze, it’ll be clean. The water is sitting at 62°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year – nice little bonus. Tuesday afternoon drops right off to a glassy 3 ft, but that’s pretty small.
Now, the real window opens up from Friday the 29th of August. Saturday the 29th is the pick of the next week. You’ve got a 6 ft swell from the NNW building through the morning, and then it swings to a 6 ft from the NNW in the afternoon with a light offshore breeze. The combined wave energy jumps up to 468 (moderate) for that afternoon session. This is your standout. Clean, offshore winds, and a solid head-high wave for the crew who know the lineup.
Sunday the 30th holds on with a 5 ft from the north, but it gets a bit choppier in the morning. The afternoon, however, sees a 4 ft north swell with an offshore breeze again – clean and rideable.
There’s a gap of poor conditions from the 31st of August through the 1st of September. Small, messy, and onshore. Don’t bother.
Then things get serious, and a bit wild. On the 2nd of September, a strong westerly swell pushes in. We’re talking 8 ft on Wednesday morning and a massive 12 ft that afternoon, but with onshore wind, it’s a messy, blown-out mess. The wave energy (861 and 2284) is high, but the quality is garbage. This one looks more like a kite session than a paddle session – too much wind chop for a clean ride.
The 3rd of September is a redemption day. A long-period (11 seconds) groundswell from the north at 4 ft, with light offshore winds. The combined swell energy is 893 (moderate to strong). This will be clean, lined-up, and perfect for the reef. This is another true standout – the period in the 11-second range means those long, smooth walls we chase.
After that, it’s a mixed bag. The 4th of September has overhead waves but onshore winds, making it a write-off for paddling. The 5th of September sees a massive 13 ft WNW groundswell (period 11 seconds), but with a cross-on wind, it’ll be a beast and a half – only for the boldest experts, if anyone. Combined energy is a massive 3866 (strong to very strong).
Finally, on the 7th of September, the chart shows a monster. A 41 ft W groundswell with a 19-second period. Combined energy is 108,332. That’s a beyond-big storm swell. While the wind looks glassy, this is way too much for Easky Right. The break can’t handle that size; it’ll just be a washing machine.
So, boys and girls, your two best bets are Saturday the 29th of August for the clean offshore sessions, and Thursday the 3rd of September for that long-period groundswell with light wind. Mark your calendars.
Rusty.

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

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 Easky Right 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.
