Easky Right Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, let’s talk about Easky Right. This is a reef break, exposed to the swell, and it’s fairly consistent. Water temp is about normal for this time of year.

We got a bit of a wait, but the first real action is on Saturday, July 25th. It’s not perfect, but there’s some serious size. Swell is a heavy 10ft from the WNW, with a period of 10 seconds. That’s a lot of juice – combined swell energy is 1515 – that’s strong. The wind is cross-off in the morning, 16 mph from the WSW, keeping it fairly clean, but it’s a battle. The score is low, so it’s for the experienced only. Beginners should stay out of the water – 10ft is too much. Afternoon gets cross and lumpy, no good.

Sunday the 26th is similar – 10ft, 10-second period – but the wind is a fresh 19 mph cross and then cross-on. It gets lumpy and messy. Not one for the board.

Now, Monday the 27th looks a bit more manageable. The swell drops to 7ft in the morning, still from the WNW, but the wind is a cross-off from the SW at 12 mph. The combined energy is still moderate at 981. Conditions are clean, but the overall score is still low. It’s surfable, but not a standout.

The best window of the whole 16-day outlook is Tuesday, July 28th. The morning is the pick. Swell is 5ft from the WNW, with a 9-second period, and the wind is blowing offshore from the SSW at 12 mph. The energy is in the moderate range at 420, and the notes say “expect good surf conditions.” That offshore wind will make it clean and lined up. This is the one to aim for. It’s not too big for a decent intermediate surfer, but still has some punch. Afternoon gets windier and the score drops.

After that, it’s a long, slow decline. From Wednesday the 29th, the swell drops under 5ft, and the wind keeps shifting. Late July into early August, the surf gets small and weak. We get a few moments of glassy conditions, like on Friday, July 31st morning with a 3ft glassy swell, but the period is short (7 seconds) and the energy is weak (104). It’s surfable, but very ordinary.

The second week is pretty grim. From August 1st right through to the 9th, there’s nothing that really lights up the board. Lots of onshore wind, small swell, and poor conditions. The energy drops into the double digits or low triple digits. There’s a small window on Monday, August 3rd morning with a glassy 4ft swell from the NW, but it’s weak and short period. The last day of the outlook, Sunday, August 9th, shows a morning with a light cross-off wind and 3ft swell, but it’s a long way off.

So, to sum it up: the standout is Tuesday, July 28th morning at Easky Right. Get on it. The rest of the run is either too big and messy, or too small and weak. It’s a classic case of a short, sharp window of quality.
