Easky Right Surf Forecast and Surf Report

G’day, I’m Rusty, and we’ve got a real mixed bag comin’ up for Easky Right. This reef setup is exposed to the northwest swell, and it’s a beginner-friendly wave that’s fairly consistent, but we’re gonna have to work through a lot of junk to get to the good stuff. Water temp’s sittin’ around 62°F, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year – feels pretty nice.

We kick off Friday, September 4th, with a solid 16ft northwest-northwest swell but a rippin’ 25 mph west wind makes it a total write-off – strong cross-shore, messy cross-chop, poor surf. Saturday the 5th is where it starts to turn. Morning brings a drop to 8ft from the northwest-northwest, with a gentle 9 mph south-west breeze that’s cross-offshore, and it’s clean. That afternoon, the wind shifts to south, goin’ offshore at 9 mph, with a 7ft northwest-northwest swell – clean lines and gentle offshores, expect very good surf. That Saturday afternoon window is the first real standout: 7ft, WNW swell, gentle offshore, clean conditions. Easky Right loves an offshore wind, and this is a sweet little session.

Sunday the 6th gets messy again with a strong offshore wind out of the south at 25 mph, but the swell drops to 3ft – hard to paddle into. The afternoon picks up a bit with a 6ft west-southwest swell, but the cross-offshore wind is still fresh. Monday the 7th offers a 8ft west swell in the morning with a moderate offshore breeze out of the south-southwest, clean and rideable, but it’s a marginal call. The afternoon gets bigger at 12ft, west swell, but the wind picks up and the rating’s still low. Tuesday the 8th is a total wipeout – 16ft swell again, but strong cross-shore winds, no good.

We get a bit of a lull Wednesday the 9th with 8ft and 6ft, clean enough but nothin’ special. Thursday the 10th is small and messy, and Friday the 11th is a lumpy cross-onshore nightmare. But then… Saturday, September 12th. That’s the real jewel. Morning brings a 8ft northwest-northwest swell with glassy conditions – the wind is a whisper from the south-southwest at just 3 mph. It’s glassy. Excellent surf for experienced surfers. The swell energy is moderate (1170), and with that glassy surface, it’s gonna be a beautiful morning. The afternoon keeps it clean with a 7ft swell and offshore wind. This is the best on offer in the whole forecast – Saturday the 12th morning, glassy, 8ft, WNW.

Sunday the 13th is still clean with a 6ft northwest swell and gentle offshore winds, good waves. Monday the 14th has a 3ft swell in the morning, but the period jumps to 13 seconds – that’s a long, ground-swell pulse, and it’s clean with offshore wind. That’s a fun little wave, though the energy is weak (495). After that, the week gets patchy. Tuesday the 15th is cross-shore and choppy, Wednesday the 16th is onshore and messy, Thursday the 17th is onshore and poor.

But then we look ahead to Friday, September 18th, which is over a week away. We’ve got a 10ft northwest-northwest swell with a gentle cross-offshore breeze out of the west-southwest, and it’s clean. The energy is strong (2370), and it’s rated excellent for experienced surfers. That’s a promising long-range call – big swell, clean, but it’s a way out so keep an eye on it. Saturday the 19th morning also looks good with a 7ft northwest-northwest swell and a light cross-offshore breeze, clean and well-shaped.

The big gaps? Nothing really worth paddlin’ for from the 9th through the 11th, and then again from the 15th through the 17th. But the standouts are clear: Saturday September 12th morning glassy session, and the long-range Friday September 18th morning big swell. Keep your board ready.

Rusty.
