Easky Right Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it. The next 16 days are a real mixed bag at Easky Right. We’ve got a long dry spell ahead before things finally wake up. There’s nothing worth paddling out for until the morning of Friday, 24 July. That’s over a week away with no real surf on offer. After that, there are a few days of bigger, more powerful swell, but the wind doesn’t cooperate for clean conditions.

From now through Thursday, 23 July, the story is simple: don’t bother. The swell is small to tiny, mostly around 2 ft to 4 ft, with weak short-period windswell bumping in from the N and NNW. The wind is onshore and moderate to fresh, just ruining any chance of a decent wave. The combined energy is low (171 or less, often under 100), and the conditions are marked “poor surf” across the board. You’ll be sitting there watching bumpy, messy lines if you go out.

Then Friday morning, 24 July, things shift. We’ve got a cross-shore wind, but the swell starts to show: around 3 ft from the WNW at 10 seconds. It’s still not great—just “poor surf conditions” into the morning—but the energy is building (198). Still, I’d wait a day.

Saturday, 25 July, is the closest thing to a standout in this whole outlook. The morning window looks best. Swell jumps to a solid 8 ft from the WNW, with a 10-second period and a clean, cross-offshore breeze from the WSW. The combined energy hits 1161, which is proper strong. That said, the wave quality is described as “marginal” and the break is a reef that handles long-period WNW groundswell well. The water’s been much warmer than normal (we saw 63° on Friday afternoon with a 2° anomaly), which is notable for this time of year. Keep in mind, the wind turns cross-on in the afternoon with only a slight air, and wave heights hold around 7 ft. It’s not perfect, but it’s the best of a rough bunch. On Saturday morning, it’s worth a look—just be aware this break can get crowded often.

Sunday, 26 July, still has size—7 ft to 8 ft from the WNW (period dropping to 8 seconds)—but the wind goes light cross-onshore and stays that way. The energy remains moderate to strong (653 to 987), but the quality is marginal. Monday, 27 July, serves up the biggest swell of the period: 11 ft from the WNW in the morning, 10 ft in the afternoon. This is expert territory—over 8 ft means big, powerful stuff. The problem is moderate cross-onshore wind and heavy chop. The combined energy is massive (2133 and 2036), but with those conditions, it’s more of a spectacle than a session for most. The same goes for Tuesday, 28 July: 8 ft to 8 ft, still cross-on and choppy, energy over 1000.

From Wednesday, 29 July onward, the swell slowly drops but the cross-onshore wind sticks around, so we’re back into poor conditions. The period shortens, and by Friday, 31 July, it’s barely 4 ft again with weak energy. Not much to get excited about.

So the takeaway? Saturday, 25 July is your best bet if you can handle a solid 8 ft WNW swell on a reef, with clean cross-offshore breeze in the morning, and you don’t mind the crowds. It’s not glassy, but it’s the only clear window where the stars align even a little.

Stay patient, check the forecasts as we get closer, and keep your eyes on the 25th.

Rusty.
