Easky Right Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer at Easky Right over the next couple of weeks.

To be straight with you, the start of this period is a write-off. From Sunday the 19th right through to Wednesday the 23rd, we’ve got onshore winds, small weak swell, and poor conditions. The combined energy is low, mostly under 100 (139 at best), with short-period windswell around 2ft to 4ft. It’s just not worth paddling out. You’d be battling a moderate breeze on the nose for nothing.

Things start to look a little less hopeless on Friday the 24th. The morning shows a bump in energy up to 4ft from the WNW with a 10-second period, and combined energy jumps to 307. It’s still only marginal, with gentle cross-shore wind and some chop. Not a standout, but at least the numbers are heading in the right direction.

Now, the first real moment of hope comes on Saturday the 25th. The morning brings 6ft of NW swell with a solid 11-second period, and the combined energy is 787. A light cross-offshore breeze from the WSW keeps it clean. The afternoon sees the swell push to 7ft (energy 909) and the wind stays cross-off. This is the best of the first week. The reef at Easky Right should handle this long-period groundswell nicely, and the clean conditions mean proper shape. Keep in mind, with the swell around 6ft to 7ft, it’s starting to push into more intermediate territory, but there’s plenty of fun to be had.

Sunday the 26th gets messy again with fresh cross-shore winds and lumpy chop on 6ft to 6ft swell. Not your day.

Looking into the second week, Monday the 27th has a morning window with 7ft of WNW swell at 11 seconds and combined energy over 1000 (1061). Gentle cross-onshore wind makes it fairly choppy, but the energy is there. It’s a marginal call, but the power is undeniable. After that, the wind turns onshore and it gets lumpy.

The real standout, and the one to circle on the calendar, is Friday the 31st of July. The morning looks fantastic: 8ft of WNW swell, 10-second period, combined energy of 901, and a clean cross-offshore breeze from the SE. The water temp is about average for the time of year. This is the best looking session in the whole run. The reef should be working well, but that 8ft is getting into the bigger end of the scale, so it’s more for experienced surfers. The afternoon still holds clean with 8ft and energy 844, though the wind picks up a touch.

The week ends with Saturday the 1st of August offering a nice clean 4ft from the W with a proper offshore breeze from the south. It’s a smaller, cleaner option to finish on.

After that, from Sunday the 2nd, it dries up again with fresh cross-off winds and weak, short-period swell. A gap of a few days with nothing worth chasing.

Overall, the best bet is the morning of Friday the 31st of July. Clean, solid WNW groundswell, good energy, and the reef setup should handle it well. Saturday the 25th of July is the pick of the first week. Don’t bother with the first five days.

Rusty.
