The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Let’s break down what Singleton’s got for us over the next couple weeks. It’s a bit of a mixed bag, but there are a few good windows if you know what you’re doin’.
Right off the bat, there’s some swell, but the start of the week is a wash. Sunday the 16th, the swell’s around 6ft from the WSW with a solid 15-second period, and a heap of energy (1581), but the wind’s a cross-off at 16 mph and it’s called marginal. Not worth the effort.
Monday the 17th and Tuesday the 18th get ugly quick. Monday has 22 mph cross-shore wind, then 28 mph onshore with 13ft of lumpy junk. No good. Tuesday the 18th though, that’s a different story. The morning is glassy with a light NE breeze, 12ft swell from the W at a very long 16 seconds. That’s massive energy (5409) and perfect conditions—but that swell is too big for Singleton. Only for the real hardcore crew. Afternoon gets a light cross-on, still huge.
Wednesday the 19th and Thursday the 20th stay big and choppy with sloppy onshore wind. Not your day.
Now, Friday the 21st of August is a standout. Morning brings a clean 8ft swell from the WSW with a 15-second period, and a light offshore from the ENE at 9 mph. Gentle offshore and clean, with 2786 combined energy. That’s excellent surf for experienced surfers. Crowds are sometimes a thing here, so you might see a few others, but with that quality, it’s worth it. This is the one to aim for.
Saturday the 22nd backs off a bit. Morning has a clean 6ft WSW swell, 15-second period, light cross-off wind, and only 1330 energy. It’s clean and fun, but not as punchy as Friday. Afternoon gets a bit messier with cross-on wind.
Sunday the 23rd looks good again. Morning glass-off with a light offshore from the NE, 5ft swell from the WSW with a 16-second period, clean, and 1193 energy. That’s a lovely size for Singleton—good for experienced surfers wanting a clean session. Afternoon turns bumpy with a south wind.
After that, the second week gets quieter and choppier. Monday the 24th has a smaller 4ft swell with a fresh cross-off wind, but the energy drops off hard (625). From Tuesday the 25th through Wednesday the 27th, it’s mostly onshore wind and poor conditions, with a few bigger pulses that are too messy or too big. Thursday the 28th and Friday the 29th see smaller, cleaner windows with light winds and 4ft to 5ft swells, but the cross-on wind holds it back.
Saturday the 30th of August has a massive 12ft W swell with 16-second period and glassy conditions in the morning—huge energy (11266)—but again, way too big for Singleton. Sunday the 31st is similar with a glassy 10ft swell. Only for the crazies.
Bottom line: if you’re experienced, Friday the 21st and Sunday the 23rd are your sessions. Clean, solid, and worth the paddle. The rest is either too big, too windy, or too small. Stay sharp.
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.
