The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking for the next couple of weeks.
First up, the water temp is sitting at 62°F, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year. Nice to know.
The outlook starts with a bit of a slow burner. Sunday afternoon (August 2nd) has a 3ft NW swell with an 8-second period, but it’s a cross-shore breeze and the energy is pretty weak (217). Not a great day to get wet.
Monday, August 3rd, is a write-off – poor conditions and choppy all day. Don’t bother.
Tuesday, August 4th, has a tiny 2ft N swell with a 9-second period, but the morning is clean with a light offshore breeze (SSE 10 km/h). The energy is low (80), but if you’re desperate for a paddle, it’s surfable.
Wednesday, August 5th, is a big no-go. The swell jumps to 12ft to 15ft from the NW, but it’s hammered by a strong 25 mph cross-shore wind. The energy is massive (1947 to 3328), but the quality is pure garbage. This setup looks way more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
Now we get to the good stuff. The standout window is Thursday, August 6th, through Saturday, August 8th. Thursday morning has a 4ft WNW swell with a 7-second period, clean conditions with a light cross-offshore breeze (W 15 km/h), and moderate energy (303). It’s a solid, fun option.
Friday, August 7th, is the best of the first week. The morning has a 4ft WNW swell (9-second period) with a clean 15 mph offshore from the SSW. The energy is good (253), and the afternoon gets even better with a 5ft WNW swell, light cross-offshore breeze, and solid energy (378). This is the one to aim for.
Saturday, August 8th, holds up well with a 6ft WNW swell in the morning, light cross-offshore wind, and a decent energy (462). Clean waves.
After that, the surf fades hard. From Sunday, August 9th, right through to Thursday, August 13th, it’s a total dead zone. Tiny waves, onshore or cross-shore winds, and very low energy. A gap of about 5 days with nothing worth mentioning.
Then we get a second pulse. Friday, August 14th, has a 7ft W swell (8-second period), but it’s onshore and messy. Not great.
The real standout of the whole run is Saturday, August 15th, and Sunday, August 16th. Saturday morning has a 6ft W swell, clean with a light offshore from the SSW (10 km/h), and good energy (432). Sunday morning is the pick of the second week: a 7ft W swell, a gentle offshore breeze (SSW 15 km/h), and strong energy (659). That’s a powerful, clean wave. The swell direction (W) is a solid match for Easky Right’s optimum. This is worth waiting for, but it’s a long way out, so don’t bank on it just yet.
Monday, August 17th, sees a 10ft WNW swell, but it’s cross-shore and messy. Too big for beginners, and the quality is poor.
So, if you’re picking a session, Friday, August 7th, is the clear winner this week, and Sunday, August 16th, is the one to circle on the calendar for the long-range.
Rusty.

Information about the Easky Right Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Easky Right provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Easky Right can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Easky Right surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Easky Right) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. 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.
Easky Right is 23 km (14 miles) from Ballina. If you plan a holiday in Sligo, look for hotels and other accommodation in Ballina. Ballina has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
