The Lowdown

Righto, let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Singleton over the next couple of weeks.

The first few days are pretty average—there's surf there, but the conditions are a bit messy, and the forecast keeps flagging marginal or questionable tide situations. We kick off on Friday morning, August 28, with a 6ft swell from the WSW, but that onshore SE wind at 16 mph is making things cross-off and choppy. The combined swell energy is moderate (965). That pretty much sets the tone for the next two days: a bit of size (up to 6ft) but not much clean, rideable surface.

Then we get a bit of a lift. Sunday morning, August 30, that’s where it starts to look interesting. Swell bumps up to 7ft from the WSW, period hits 18 seconds—proper groundswell. Combined energy is a solid 2930. And the wind swings light NNE at just 6 mph, so the surface is clean. This one’s for experienced surfers though; at over 7ft, it’s no beginner wave, especially with that long period (over 15s) that can make beach breaks a bit straight. But if you're keen and know the break, it's the pick of the first week.

After that, the wind gets messy again through Monday and Tuesday (September 1). The swell stays around the 6ft to 7ft mark, but cross-onshore winds from the west or SSW make it choppy. Wednesday and Thursday (September 3-4) have some bigger sets—up to 8ft—but winds are onshore or cross-on, and the quality drops off.

Now, the standout. Saturday morning, September 5. That’s a beauty. The wind drops to dead calm—glassy. The swell is a clean 5ft from the WSW, with a 14-second period. Combined energy (849) is moderate, but the mirror-flat surface will make for silky lines. This is a real glassy morning special, and it’s for everyone: a nice size, not too big, and clean. That’s your winner. Get on it early.

Sunday morning, September 6, is also tidy: 6ft from the WSW, period 14s, and a light NNE cross-off breeze. Energy is again moderate (1139), and the surface should stay clean. It’s a solid follow-up.

Then things go quiet for a day or two—swell drops to 4ft on Monday (September 7), with some glassy patches. Then from Tuesday (September 8) onward, the swell really starts to jack up. By Tuesday afternoon, we’re looking at 10ft from the W, period 19s. That’s huge. Combined energy shoots to 5726. Then Wednesday (September 9) brings 15ft to 16ft swells from the WSW, with monster energy levels well into five figures (11942, 12442). This is expert-only territory. The wind is light, but the swell is way too big for a relaxed paddle session at Singleton. Honestly, at that size and with cross-onshore winds, you’d be looking at kite-surfing conditions rather than a fun paddle session. The forecast flags it as too big for the break.

That big pulse lingers into Thursday (September 10), with 13ft swells, then it starts to drop. Friday and Saturday (September 11-12) are back to a more manageable 7ft to 8ft, but fresh onshore winds (up to 19 mph) make it lumpy and poor.

So, to sum it up: glassy Saturday morning (September 5) is your absolute standout. Sunday morning (August 30) is the other real gem for the experienced crew. The massive mid-September swell (Sep 8-10) is only for the brave, and even then, maybe not the best call for a regular surf. There’s about a 4-5 day window of decent surf in the first week, then a big quiet patch as the swell gets too big or too windy.

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.
