Easky Right Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Right, folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming down the line for Easky Right.

It’s a tough stretch ahead, I’ve gotta be honest. We’re looking at a solid gap right through the start. The first week or so is pretty grim. There’s really nothing worth paddling out for from this Friday the 10th of July all the way through to Monday the 20th of July. That’s over a week of onshore winds and small, weak slop. You might see the odd tiny wave on Sunday the 12th if you’re desperate, but with a 2ft swell at 8 seconds and light cross-off breeze, it’s barely surfable and the energy is pathetic (64). Don’t bother.

The water temp is sitting at 60°F which feels a touch warmer than normal for the time of year, but that’s about the only thing worth mentioning for a while.

We finally get a little flicker of hope on Monday the 20th of July. The morning shows some sign of life: a 5ft WNW swell with a 8-second period, and a cross-off wind. The combined energy climbs to moderate (312). The wave comment says "marginal" but that’s the best we’ve seen. Still, it’s not a standout – the afternoon gets blown out by a 19 mph cross-on wind, so it’s a morning-only window if you’re keen.

Now, the real standout here, and the only one I’d circle on the calendar, is Wednesday the 22nd of July morning. We get a clean 5ft swell from the WNW with a 9-second period, a gentle 9 mph cross-off breeze, and moderate energy (422). The conditions finally line up for a decent session. It’s still a reef break, so watch your fins, but the wind is clean and the swell has a bit of push. It’s not huge, just a solid fun size.

After that, things get messy again. The rest of the week has stronger winds and choppier conditions, with swell building but getting torn apart. Thursday the 23rd morning might be worth a look with a 4ft W swell and cross-off wind, but it’s only “marginal” and the energy’s dropped back to 294. Not a second standout.

So, bottom line: there’s a long dry spell, then a brief window on Monday the 20th if you’re early, but the pick of the whole 16 days is Wednesday the 22nd of July morning. Don’t expect a classic NW groundswell here – this is more of a short-period WSW to WNW windswell setup, so it’s not gonna be clean, long lines. But for a reef break that can handle it, that Wednesday morning is the closest we get to good.

Keep the wax soft and your expectations low for the rest.

Rusty.
