The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's on the menu at Singleton.
We've got a solid run of swell on the horizon, but it's not a straight shot to perfection. The wind and the size are going to be the main characters in this story. The week starts with some serious muscle in the water, but you'll have to work around a cross-off breeze. The real standout is going to be Monday morning, the 7th of September.
That Monday morning session is looking like the pick of the bunch. We've got a clean 8ft swell rolling in from the WSW, and with a gentle cross-off breeze from the SE, the face is going to be smooth. The period is a long 17 seconds, so this is proper groundswell with some serious push. That means it's not for the faint-hearted; this is experienced surfer territory with that size and power. The combined energy is very strong (3123), so you'll feel it out the back. For a spot that's fairly consistent, this is a window to lock in.
The run-up to that is okay, but not special. Sunday the 6th has an 8ft WSW swell, but a 19 mph SSE cross-wind is going to chop it up and make it a bit of a wrestle. It's marginal, and with a shorter 12-second period, it'll be less organized.
After Monday, things drop off. By Thursday the 10th, the swell eases right down to 4ft, and the wind starts to play games. Friday the 11th is a write-off with a cross-shore mess. The weekend of the 12th and 13th gets ugly—rain, strong onshore winds, and poor conditions, so you’re better off doing something else.
Then there's a glimmer on Monday the 14th of September. The morning is glassy with zero wind and a clean 8ft WSW swell. That's a beautiful combination for experienced surfers if you can get it. The combined energy is still very strong (2329). Tuesday the 15th morning also looks clean with a 6ft swell and a light cross-off breeze.
But hold onto your board for the final act. Sunday the 20th of September is a monster. We're looking at a 13ft WSW swell with a 21-second period. The combined energy is massive (12398). The wind is light, but the sheer size makes this a no-go for anyone but the most experienced big-wave chargers, and even then, it's predicted to be too big for the break. Unless you're towing in, give it a miss.
So, to sum it up: Monday the 7th of September morning is your top target. Monday the 14th morning is a close second for the glassy conditions. The rest of the period has a few clean moments, but plenty of blown-out or oversized days in between.
Stay safe out there.

Information about the Singleton Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Singleton provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Singleton can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Singleton 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 (Singleton) 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 Singleton 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.
Singleton is 5 km (3 miles) from Mandurah. If you plan a holiday in Perth City Coast, look for hotels and other accommodation in Mandurah. Mandurah has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
