The Lowdown
G'day, I'm Rusty. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for Singleton over the next couple of weeks.
Alright, right off the bat, we've got a bit of a problem. This spot is a beginner-friendly beach break, but the starting swell is already a solid 8ft from the WSW, and it's only going to get bigger. This is expert territory from the get-go, and honestly, for the first week, the size is just too much for this setup. The water temp is sitting at 64°, which is pretty close to normal for this time of year, so nothing weird there.
We kick off on Tuesday, August 4th, with that 8ft swell and a 9 mph onshore wind, making it messy. The energy is moderate (3239), but the conditions are marginal. That's a no-go.
Wednesday, August 5th, sees the swell jump to 10ft from the WSW with a long 16-second period. The combined energy is strong (3931 in the morning, 4543 in the arvo). The morning has a light offshore wind, so it'll be clean, but at 10ft, it's way too big for this break. Same story for Thursday, August 6th – 10ft swell, cross-shore winds, still too big. The energy is strong (3937 in the morning, 3111 in the arvo). Friday, August 7th, is more of the same: 8ft to 10ft, rain showers, and onshore winds making a mess. The energy is still strong (2944 to 3286).
Now, Saturday, August 8th, is a write-off. We're looking at a massive 15ft swell from the WSW with strong onshore winds hitting 25 mph. The combined energy is very strong (7264 in the morning, 9316 in the arvo). This is a mess, and honestly, it looks more like a kite-surfing day than a paddle-out. Sunday, August 9th, is still too big at 10ft to 12ft, with a mix of cross-shore and onshore winds. The energy is still very strong (6160 to 4103).
Monday, August 10th, the swell drops to 8ft, but the wind is a moderate cross-shore, making it choppy. The energy is moderate to strong (2824 to 3543). Still not great.
Finally, we get a bit of a window. Tuesday, August 11th, is the standout. The morning is glassy with a 8ft WSW swell and a 17-second period. The wind is dead calm, so the surface will be perfect. The combined energy is strong (4012). This is a big, powerful groundswell from a very long period, so it'll be stacking up and offering some serious walls. It's still a big wave for this spot, so only for experienced surfers, but the conditions will be excellent. The afternoon lightens up with a light onshore, still good but not as perfect.
Wednesday, August 12th, is another good option for the experienced crew. The swell drops to 6ft in the morning with a light cross-offshore wind, making it clean. The energy is moderate (1706). The 16-second period means it'll still have plenty of punch. The afternoon bumps up to 7ft with a light onshore, which is still okay.
Thursday, August 13th, is a bit more marginal with a 8ft swell and a moderate cross-shore wind creating some chop. The energy is strong (3253). Friday, August 14th, sees a similar setup: 7ft to 8ft swells with a light cross-offshore wind in the morning, keeping it clean. The energy is moderate (1975 to 2127). It's a solid option for the experienced surfer.
After that, the wind turns nasty again. Saturday, August 15th, brings strong onshore winds and a 10ft to 12ft swell, making it a complete mess. The energy is very strong (2539 to 7092). Sunday, August 16th, is still big and lumpy. Monday, August 17th, has a cleaner 7ft to 7ft swell with a cross-offshore wind, but the energy is moderate (1870 to 2344). The wind is strong, though, so it'll be a battle.
The final few days, from Tuesday, August 18th, to Wednesday, August 19th, are blown out with strong onshore winds and messy surf. The swell stays around 5ft to 7ft, but the conditions are poor.
So, to wrap it up: the best bet for the experienced surfer is the glassy morning of Tuesday, August 11th. That's the one to circle. The mornings of Wednesday, August 12th, and Friday, August 14th, are also decent options. For the rest of the time, it's either too big, too windy, or both. Keep an eye on the charts, but for now, that's the call.
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.
