The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it.
We’re looking at Easky Right, and honestly, the first few days are a bit of a grind. A little pulse of swell arrives on Tuesday the 11th, but it’s small and messy. Tuesday morning we’ve got a weak 3ft from the north with a short period, combined energy is only 134, and it’s a cross-off wind. The water temp is 61°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. Not much to write home about. The afternoon drops to 2ft and the wind swings offshore, but it’s still very ordinary. Wednesday the 12th is similar – small 2ft waist-high stuff from the WSW, offshore winds, but the energy is still low (112). You could paddle out but it’s not going to set your world on fire.
Things perk up a bit on Thursday the 13th. The morning brings a solid 3ft from the west with a 10-second period, combined energy of 209 – that’s moderate wave energy. Offshore winds are holding, so it’ll be clean. This is the best of the early window. The afternoon gets a bit cross-off, but still surfable. We’ve got a couple of rainy showers, but the surf is actually decent. Friday the 14th and Saturday the 15th are a write-off – strong cross and cross-onshore winds, lumpy and choppy, swell is building but it’s not clean. Sunday the 16th is small and messy again.
Monday the 17th has a little spike of 3ft from the west, but it’s weak. The real standout is way off in the distance. Thursday the 20th of August shows a pulse of 7ft from the WNW with a 10-second period, combined energy of 763 – that’s strong energy. The wind is a cross-off, so it’s clean. This is a solid option for experienced surfers, but it’s still a week and a half away, so keep an eye on it. The following Friday morning the 21st is the biggest wave of the outlook: 8ft from the WNW, 11-second period, and a strong offshore wind from the south at 25 mph. Combined energy is 1484 – that’s very strong. This is expert territory; the swell is big, the period is long, and it’ll be clean but powerful. The offshore wind is a major positive, but this is not for beginners. The long period groundswell will work well at this reef, but expect some big sets.
After that, Saturday the 22nd and Sunday the 23rd turn messy or drop off completely. Tuesday the 25th has another big pulse at 8ft, but the cross-onshore wind is strong, making it lumpy and poor quality.
So, for the best on offer: Thursday the 13th is your early pick – clean, moderate swell, manageable. The real standout is Friday the 21st of August – big, powerful, and clean, but only for the strong paddlers. Keep the long-range ones in the back of your mind.

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.
