Easky Right Surf Forecast and Surf Report

G'day, I'm Rusty, and I've got the rundown on what's coming our way for the next couple of weeks at Easky Right. It's a reef break that's fairly consistent and a good one for beginners, but we're in for a real mixed bag.

Right now, the water is sitting at a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, coming in at 62°. The immediate outlook is pretty grim. We're looking at a stretch of several days where there's just nothing worth paddling out for. Thursday the 27th and Friday the 28th are a write-off, with tiny, weak swell and dodgy wind. Saturday the 29th isn't any better. We don't see anything worthwhile until Sunday the 30th.

Sunday morning shows a little promise, with a 2ft swell from the west at 10 seconds and a light cross-offshore breeze, but the energy is still weak (127). The afternoon is a step up, with the wind going glassy, but the swell is still only 3ft. The energy picks up a bit (155), making it surfable but nothing to get too excited about. Monday the 31st sees the swell building. The morning has 3ft from the west with a clean cross-offshore breeze, and the energy is now moderate (274). The afternoon gets bigger, with 5ft waves from the west and a solid 10-second period. The energy is strong (432), and it's clean, but it's still described as marginal. Tuesday the 1st of September is where things get a bit wild. We get a 7ft swell from the west-northwest in the morning, but the wind is a messy cross-shore at 12 mph, making it choppy. The energy is very strong (673), but the quality isn't there.

The standout period kicks off on Wednesday the 2nd of September. The morning is the pick of the early window, with a 4ft swell from the north at 9 seconds, and a clean cross-offshore breeze from the SSE at 9 mph. The energy is moderate (279), and the conditions are clean. It's not huge, but it's clean and fun. The afternoon sees the wind swing to a fresh offshore from the south at 19 mph, but the swell drops back to 3ft, so the morning session is the one to target.

Thursday the 3rd looks average, with a 5ft west swell but a 12 mph cross-offshore wind. Friday the 4th is for experts only, with a huge 8ft swell from the west-northwest at a very long 12-second period. The energy is massive (2220), but a strong cross-shore wind at 28 mph makes it messy and dangerous. This one is a skip for most. Saturday the 5th of September is the true standout. We get a 7ft swell from the west-northwest at 10 seconds, with a light cross-offshore breeze from the south-southwest at 6 mph. The energy is very strong (761), and it's clean. This is the best on offer, a solid swell with good shape and light winds. The afternoon stays similar but with a light cross-shore breeze.

The following week is less certain. Sunday the 6th has a solid 7ft swell, but onshore winds ruin it. Monday the 7th shows a clean offshore wind in the afternoon with a 4ft northwest swell, which is worth a look. Tuesday the 8th has a clean 5ft southwest swell in the afternoon, and Wednesday the 9th sees a fresh offshore wind with a 6ft west swell, but that's for the more experienced crew. The rest of the week drops off quickly, with small, windy conditions through the 10th and 11th.

Bottom line: The best window is the morning of Saturday the 5th of September. That's your call. The Wednesday the 2nd morning is a decent warm-up, and the Tuesday the 8th afternoon is a promising long-shot. Keep an eye on that Saturday.

Rusty.
