The Lowdown
Righto, let’s have a look at what’s coming down the line for the next couple of weeks. The only break we’ve got to work with here is Easky Right, a reef setup that’s usually pretty consistent and can handle a good push from the northwest.
We’ve got a bit of a mixed bag to start. The first real action hits on Monday, 24 August. It’s not huge, with swell around 5 ft from the WNW and a solid 11-second period. The wind is a light cross-offshore, keeping things clean. The combined energy is sitting at 602 (moderate), and you’ll be getting some nice shaped waves. This is a good session for a beginner-friendly reef, with manageable size and clean conditions.
Tuesday the 25th drops off. The swell fades quick, dropping to 4 ft Tuesday morning and then down to 3 ft in the arvo. The wind gets pushy from the SE at 12 mph, and the energy drops to 219. By Wednesday and Thursday, it’s pretty much flat and messy.
Then we get a bit of a limbo until Saturday, 29 August. This is where it starts to look interesting again. The swell bumps back up to 5-6 ft from the NNW, with a moderate energy of around 412. The wind goes glassy or light offshore on Saturday, which for a reef like this means silky smooth faces. The combined energy is solid (408-412). It’s a standout for the first week. It’s a bit bigger than the Monday session, so for a beginner it’s getting toward the upper end of comfort, but it'll be clean and rippable.
Sunday the 30th stays okay in the morning with offshore winds and 4 ft swell, but the arvo gets choppy. The rest of that week is pretty average until Wednesday, 2 September. That morning looks marginal with strong offshore wind (19 mph) and 4 ft swell, but the afternoon is a quiet standout: 6 ft from the west, period 9 seconds, light cross-offshore breeze (9 mph), and a big energy jump to 543 (moderate). The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing weird.
Now, the real firecracker is lined up for the end of the run. On Sunday, 6 September, we’ve got a serious groundswell arriving. The morning shows 6 ft from the WNW with an incredible 18-second period, and the afternoon glassed off with 8 ft and a 17-second period, energy hitting 3446 (very strong). This is for experienced surfers—it’s going to be powerful, long lines, but that long period means it might stand up a bit straight on sections, so position will be key. The reef will sort it out.
Then Monday, 7 September is the biggest of the whole run. Swell hits 13 ft from the WNW (direction perfect for this spot) with a 14-second period, light offshore wind and energy at a massive 5581 (very strong). This is expert-only territory. The swell direction matches the optimum NW perfectly, and with clean offshore wind, this could be the session you remember. It’s over 8 ft, so only for the confident. The long range makes it less certain, but the signs are mouth-watering.
So, to wrap it: your two best bets are the glassy Saturday (29 August) for a fun, clean session, and the powerhouse Sunday/Monday (6-7 September) for the big-wave crew.
Stay stoked,
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.

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.
