The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what we’ve got coming down the pipe for Easky Right. This is a reef setup, exposed to the open ocean, and it’s fairly consistent, so there’s hope even when it looks a bit grim.
Right now, we’re in a bit of a flat spell. Sunday the 23rd and Monday morning the 24th are pretty much a write-off – tiny little 1ft to 2ft waves with onshore or cross winds. You’d be wasting your time. But hold on, because Monday the 24th is where the story turns.
Monday morning the 24th sees a nice little pulse arrive: 5ft of swell from the WNW with a period of 11 seconds, and the wind is a clean cross-off from the SE. Combined energy is a solid 601 – that’s moderate to strong energy for sure. The water temp? About average for this time of year, so no surprises there. This is the first real standout. Easky Right will be clean, with some proper shape. The swell direction is straight out of the optimum NW window, so the reef should be working nicely. Crowds? They’re often here, so you won’t be alone, but the quality will be worth sharing it for. This is your best bet for the near term – Monday morning into Monday afternoon.
Tuesday the 25th drops off a bit – swell drops to 4ft, and the wind stays cross-off, but the energy fades to 219, so it’s still surfable but nothing special. Wednesday and Thursday are messy: small swell, onshore winds, rain. Friday the 28th looks rough with a short-period 5ft NW swell and strong cross-on wind – choppy, ugly. Saturday the 29th is actually a big jump: 8ft from the WNW, but the wind is cross from the NW at 15 mph, and it’s only 7-second period. That’s a lot of water moving around, but messy. Combined energy is 588, so there’s power, but it’s not clean. This is more for experienced surfers who don’t mind a battle. Beginners, stay away – that’s over 5ft and messy.
Sunday the 30th gets even bigger – 8ft from the NNW with a 10-second period, and combined energy hits 1371. That’s strong. But the wind is cross-on from the NW, and the setup looks more like a kite-surfing day than a paddling paradise. Too big and bumpy for most. Monday the 31st drops back, but still onshore.
Now, the second week has a real gem. Wednesday the 2nd of September, we get a morning pulse of 7ft from the west, 8-second period, but the wind is offshore – light from the south. That’s clean. The afternoon gets even better: 8ft from the west, 9-second period, offshore from the SSE at 6 mph. Combined energy jumps to 1094 – strong. This is excellent for experienced surfers. The swell direction is west, which is a bit off the optimum NW, but the quality of the wind and the size make this a true standout. Crowds will be likely because it’s that good. Just know that 8ft is expert territory.
Thursday the 3rd keeps the size at 8ft, but the wind picks up – SE at 15-18 mph, cross-off to offshore. Still clean, but the energy is massive – 1722. That’s very strong. For experts only. Friday the 4th fades to 5ft, still clean. After that, the swell drops away into small, ordinary surf for the weekend and into Monday the 7th.
So, to wrap it up: the standout is Monday the 24th for a clean, fun 5ft wave. The second standout is Wednesday the 2nd of September for the bigger, cleaner, expert-level 8ft. Everything else is either too small, too messy, or too big and onshore. Keep your eyes on those two windows.
Rusty out.

Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Easky Right may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
