Singleton Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, let’s get into it. I’m lookin’ at Singleton, and it’s a bit of a mixed bag ahead. We’ve got some solid swell windows, but the wind’s gonna be the main character for a lot of the run. This spot faces WSW, so it’s exposed to the good stuff, but the wind windows are gonna make or break it.

The first real standout lands on Sunday the 19th. The morning session is the pick. We’re talking a clean 8ft swell from the WSW, with a 14-second period that’s got some real push. The combined energy is strong at 2253, so there’s plenty of power. The real kicker is the wind: light offshore from the ENE, glassin’ it up. That’s gonna be clean, lined-up waves for experienced surfers. Keep an eye on the crowd situation though – it’s a spot that can get some company, so get there early.

A week later, Wednesday the 22nd morning session is another cracker. Offshore flow from the ESE with a light breeze, and a clean 7ft WSW swell at 13 seconds. The energy’s solid at 1380, and conditions are set for a proper session. This one’s also for the more experienced crew, with that size.

The water temp is about average for the time of year, so no surprises there – just your standard mid-winter chill.

Later in the run, Thursday the 23rd afternoon is worth a mention. Clean, cross-off wind from the NE, almost glassy, with a 6ft swell at 15 seconds. The energy’s still decent at 1237, and the period is long enough to get some good shape. Another solid window for experienced surfers.

Wrapping up, the last week of the month sees a few smaller, cleaner windows. The 27th Monday afternoon is glassy with a 3ft, 17-second groundswell. It’s small, but the period is long, so it’ll be fun on a longboard or a fish. The energy is moderate at 757, but the clean conditions make it worth a look.

The 30th of July morning is a wildcard. The swell jumps to 12ft from the west with a short, 8-second period, and the energy is strong at 1673. But the wind is cross-on and choppy, and that size is for experts only. It’s a big, messy setup that might be better for the kite crew than paddle surfers.

Overall, the first half of the run has the best quality, with Sunday the 19th and Wednesday the 22nd being the true standouts. The second week is smaller and cleaner, but with less punch.

Rusty.
