The Lowdown
Alright, let’s take a look at what’s on offer here at Singleton.
Right now, things are looking pretty good for Tuesday, July 14th. We’ve got a solid 6 ft of swell pumping in from the WSW, with a long 15-second period – that’s a proper groundswell. The wind is light and offshore from the NE, which means the waves are going to be clean and peeling. The combined energy is strong (1506), so there’s plenty of power behind it. This is an exposed spot, so it’s handling that swell well. The water’s sitting at 65°, which is about normal for this time of year. This is a beginner-friendly break, but with that size and period, it’s really more for the experienced crew. If you’re confident, the morning session on Tuesday is the standout.
Tuesday afternoon holds similar conditions, still offshore, still clean. Then Wednesday, July 15th, the wind shifts to a cross-offshore from the north, and the swell drops a little to 4-5 ft. The period is still long (14-16 seconds), so the quality is okay, but the wind isn’t as perfect. Thursday, July 16th, gets messy. We’ve got rain and a cross-onshore wind building, with the swell jumping to 7 ft in the morning and 8 ft in the afternoon. The combined energy ramps up significantly (2002-2561), but with choppy, cross-onshore conditions, it’s not going to be a pleasant paddle. That’s probably more of a kite-surfing show.
Friday, July 17th, morning looks a bit better. A 5 ft swell from the west, with a 13-second period, and a light cross-offshore breeze from the NNE. It’s clean, but the energy is a bit lower (920). A decent session, but not a standout. The afternoon turns ugly with a fresh cross-onshore wind.
The weekend is a write-off. Saturday, July 18th, sees a massive 13 ft swell from the west, with some huge energy figures (5658-7010), but it’s accompanied by onshore gales and rain. That’s big, but it’s messy and dangerous – only for the absolute die-hards. Sunday, the swell drops to 7-8 ft, but the wind is still cross-onshore and choppy. Not worth it.
The following week is a mixed bag. Monday, July 20th, has a small 4-5 ft swell, but the wind is cross or cross-onshore, so it’s rough. Tuesday, July 21st, the swell bumps up to 8 ft again, but with a short 8-second period – that’s windswell, not great. The energy is moderate (894), but the conditions are choppy. Wednesday through Saturday, the wind is predominantly cross-onshore or onshore, with the swell ranging from 3 ft to 10 ft. The quality is poor across the board.
Then, on Monday, July 27th, things start to turn. Morning brings a 4 ft WSW swell with a very long 18-second period, and the wind is a light cross-offshore from the north. The energy is moderate (986), but it’s clean. That’s a promising sign, but it’s small.
The real standout in the second week is Wednesday, July 29th. The morning is glassy – the wind is from the NE at just 3 mph, with a 10 ft groundswell from the WSW, a 17-second period, and massive energy (4340). That’s a very long period, so this is a proper groundswell. For a spot like this, which is a beach break, that long period might make the waves a bit walled-up and straight, but it’s going to be powerful. The water temp is still around 65°. However, the forecast says it might be too big for this break, so this is one for experts only. It’s a promising, long-range call, but keep an eye on the wind.
Overall, Tuesday morning, July 14th, is the best bet in the first week – clean, offshore, and solid. For the second week, Wednesday, July 29th, is the one to watch, but it’s a big, powerful swell for the experts.

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.
