Easky Right Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, let's get into it. Rusty here, and I've got the lowdown on Easky Right.

Right off the bat, I gotta be honest with you – the next week or so looks pretty grim. We're looking at a long stretch of nothing much, with onshore winds and poor conditions. The water temp is sitting at 64°F with a 5°F anomaly, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, but that's about the only thing to get excited about. From Saturday the 18th right through to Thursday the 24th, it's a whole lot of "poor surf conditions" and moderate onshore breezes. There's a small window on Wednesday the 22nd morning with a cross-on wind, but the swell is tiny and weak, with combined energy around 78 – not worth paddling out for.

The first real glimmer of hope comes on Friday the 24th. The morning shows a jump in swell to 6 ft from the WNW with a 9-second period, and combined energy hitting 517 (moderate). The wind is a cross-shore, which is better, but it's still a "marginal" call. The afternoon gets bigger at 7 ft, but the wind howls to 19 mph, making it a lumpy mess. Still, for a reef break, a 9-second period from the WNW is closer to the optimum, so it could be worth a look if you're desperate.

Saturday the 25th has some size too – 8 ft in the morning and 7 ft in the afternoon from the NW, but it's a cross-onshore wind and the quality is poor. That's getting into the size range where it's more for the experienced crew, and the chop won't help.

The standout? Mark your calendar for Tuesday the 28th of July. The morning is looking glassy – winds from the NE at just 3 mph, making it dead calm. The swell is a solid 5 ft from the WNW, with an 8-second period and combined energy of 322. It's not the biggest, but with glassy conditions, that reef setup will be clean and fun. The notes say "expect good surf conditions," and that's the best we've seen. Keep in mind, this break is fairly consistent, but crowds are often here, so expect some company.

After that, it falls off again. Wednesday the 29th and Thursday the 30th are back to small, weak, and onshore. Friday the 31st of July has a glassy morning with 3 ft, but it's very ordinary. The first weekend of August has a little more size (4 ft on the 1st), but the wind is onshore or light cross-onshore, so it's nothing special.

So, for the next 16 days, the only real call is Tuesday the 28th of July. It's a bit of a wait, but that glassy morning with a clean 5 ft groundswell from the WNW at Easky Right is your best bet. The rest is a write-off for now.

Rusty.
