The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s heading our way at Singleton over the next couple of weeks.
First up, we’ve got a bit of a quiet start. Monday the 3rd is a no-go – the swell is there but it’s messy and the wind is all over the shop, and the water temp is sitting at 64°, which is pretty much bang on average for this time of year. Nothing to get excited about. Tuesday the 4th is a write-off too, with strong onshore winds and a building swell that’s just ugly.
But hold onto your board, because Wednesday the 5th is where it all kicks off. Wednesday morning, the wind swings around to a light cross-off from the NE, and we’ve got a solid 8ft of WSW groundswell with a period of 16 seconds. That’s a lot of energy in the water (3714) and the setup is clean. This is a standout for experienced surfers only though – anything over 8ft and it’s expert territory. Thursday the 6th keeps the quality rolling with glassy conditions in the afternoon and a 8ft, 16-second swell from the WSW. The combined energy is still massive (2872), and it’s clean. Again, this is for the advanced crew.
We hit a rough patch from Friday the 7th through to Sunday the 9th. Strong cross-on winds and a huge, unruly swell – 13ft on Saturday – make it pure chaos. Not for paddling, honestly looks more like a kite-surfing zoo. The combined energy on Saturday is a whopping 6364 to 7056, but with that wind, it’s a mess. Sunday the 9th is still big and bumpy, but the afternoon eases a little with a 8ft, 16-second swell and a light cross breeze.
The second week gets interesting again. Tuesday the 12th offers a chance for the experienced crowd with a clean 7ft, 13-second swell and light cross-off winds. The energy is moderate (1429). Thursday the 13th is a proper standout for the experts: a 10ft, 20-second groundswell in the morning with moderate offshore wind from the ENE – that’s an incredibly long period, perfect for a point or reef, but this is a beach break so it might be a bit straight. The energy is 5819. The afternoon steps down to a 8ft, 19-second swell with gentle offshore winds, which is still excellent for experienced surfers.
Friday the 14th and Saturday the 15th both have clean, offshore conditions and solid 7ft to 8ft swells, but the crowds are sometimes a factor at Singleton, so expect company. The energy is strong (3149 on Friday afternoon). Tuesday the 18th finishes the run with glassy conditions and a 8ft, 16-second swell – a clean, expert-level session to end on.
Overall, the best windows are Wednesday the 5th through Thursday the 6th, and then Thursday the 13th through Tuesday the 18th. This is a spot that’s exposed to the WSW, and it’s fairly consistent, so it won’t stay flat for long even when it’s poor. Keep an eye on the forecasts, because the long-range stuff looks promising but could change.
Rusty.

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.
