Easky Right Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here, looking at the 16-day picture for one of my favourite spots, Easky Right. This is a classic reef set-up that's fairly consistent, so it's got a bit of potential in the coming weeks, but we're going to have to pick our moments.

The water temp is sitting about average for the time of year, which is nice.

We start off with a bit of a slow burner. Wednesday the 12th and Thursday the 13th have some small, rideable waves, but the wind is a bit of a pain. On Wednesday morning we've got a 2ft swell from the WSW with a moderate 12 mph SSE breeze, which keeps it clean but the energy is weak (112). By Thursday morning, the swell bumps up to 3ft from the west, and the energy climbs to moderate (205). The offshore wind still makes it clean, but the real quality isn't here yet.

Friday the 14th and Saturday the 15th are a write-off. The wind swings onshore and chop ruins the surface, so don't bother. Sunday the 16th is interesting. The swell drops back to 3ft from the NW, but the wind goes glassy in the afternoon. That's a rare treat - clean, smooth conditions on a reef, but the wave energy is weak (99), so you'll be scratching for a ride.

Monday the 17th is a mixed bag. The morning is clean with a 3ft swell, but the afternoon turns into a choppy mess as a 5ft WSW swell arrives with a cross-onshore wind. The real standout is still a few days away.

Now, here's where it gets good. Tuesday the 18th is the highlight of the whole run. The morning brings a solid 7ft swell from the west, combined with a moderate offshore breeze from the south. The energy is strong (640), and the surf is expected to be very good. This is a proper reef wave, so it will handle that size well. The afternoon sees the swell pump up to 12ft from the west, with a 10-second period, but the wind gets a bit tricky. This is a big day for experienced surfers only.

Wednesday the 19th is a mess. That swell keeps building, hitting 15ft, but the wind is howling from the west at 25-28 mph. The energy is very strong (4279), but the surface is trashed. This is more of a kite-surfing setup than a paddle session.

The swell drops back through the end of the week. Thursday the 20th and Friday the 21st are blown out and choppy. We get a bit of a lull until Saturday the 22nd, which has a clean 4ft swell from the west in the morning, offering some decent waves. The following week, Tuesday the 25th is your next real target. The morning is clean with a 5ft swell from the north, and the energy is moderate (499). The afternoon is even better, with a 5ft swell from the north and a moderate offshore, scoring very good surf conditions. The energy is strong (612). That's a solid day for Easky Right.

The season finishes with a clean Wednesday morning on the 26th, with a 4ft north swell, before the wind goes strong again.

So, to sum it up: if you're looking for the best, circle Tuesday the 18th for the biggest, most powerful groundswell, and Tuesday the 25th for a cleaner, more manageable day with great conditions. Get out there.

Rusty.
