The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s cookin’ for Singleton.
We’ve got a classic run of solid, consistent WSW groundswell on the cards, but there’s a bit of a slow start before the real juice kicks in. The water’s sitting at 65°, which is a bit colder than usual for this time of year – you’ll feel that chill on your first duck dive.
The first real chance to get wet comes Thursday morning, 23 July. We’re looking at a clean 5ft swell from the WSW, with a period of 14 seconds and a moderate offshore breeze from the ENE. The wave energy is moderate (943), and the conditions are clean. It’s a solid beginner-friendly wave that’ll hold up well. Thursday arvo stays clean, with the swell easing a touch to 4ft, wind dropping to a light offshore.
Friday the 24th is a bit of a mixed bag. Morning is clean but small at 3ft, and the wind is cross-offshore. The standout is Friday afternoon – glassy conditions with a 3ft swell and a 12-second period. It’s small, but it’ll be smooth as silk if you’ve got a longboard.
Saturday the 25th sees a jump in size to 4ft for the morning, but the wind is cross-offshore and a bit stronger. The afternoon gets messy with a cross-shore breeze and poor surf quality – you’d be better off sitting this one out.
Sunday the 26th is a write-off. The morning has a 6ft swell but a short, choppy 6-second period, with strong onshore wind. The afternoon is pure chaos – 10ft, 28 mph onshore winds, and rain. Not a chance.
Monday the 27th is where things get interesting for experienced surfers only. The swell jumps to 12ft from the WSW with a 14-second period, but the combined energy is massive (4017). The wind is cross-shore, and the forecast says it’s too big for this break. This is a big-wave day, and if you’re not a solid expert, stay on the sand. The afternoon is slightly smaller at 10ft but still huge.
Tuesday the 28th is a beauty for the experienced crew. The morning has a clean 6ft swell with a 14-second period and a cross-offshore breeze. The arvo is clean and offshore, with a 5ft swell and 14-second period – excellent surf conditions for experienced surfers (4). The wave energy is moderate (1056).
Wednesday the 29th is a smaller day, but don’t sleep on the arvo. The morning is clean but only 3ft, with a very long 17-second period. The afternoon sees a 4ft swell with the same long period, light wind, and very good conditions.
Thursday the 30th has a 6ft swell in the morning, clean and long-period (19 seconds). The arvo jumps to 7ft, but the wind goes cross-onshore, making it a bit bumpy.
Friday the 31st is the standout pick for the experienced surfer. The morning has a solid 8ft swell from the WSW with a 16-second period, clean conditions, and excellent surf quality (5). The combined energy is strong (3903). The arvo is the same size but with a cross-onshore wind – still good, but the morning is the call.
Saturday the 1st of August is glassy in the morning with a 6ft swell and 14-second period, excellent for experienced surfers (4). The arvo gets a bit bumpy.
Sunday the 2nd of August is again for experts only. The morning has a massive 10ft swell with an 18-second period and massive energy (5328). The wind is light and cross-offshore, but it’s too big for most.
Monday the 3rd of August is a glassy morning with a 6ft, 15-second groundswell – excellent for experienced surfers (4). The arvo is a bit bumpy at 5ft.
The rest of the week from Tuesday the 4th onwards gets messy with strong winds and poor conditions, apart from Thursday the 6th morning which has a clean 7ft, 14-second swell for the experienced crew.
The best bet overall? Clear your schedule for Friday 31 July morning – that 8ft WSW swell with 16 seconds of period, clean offshore winds, and excellent quality is the highlight of the whole run. Singleton is exposed to the swell, so it’ll be handling that energy well. Just be aware it’s a beginner-friendly spot, so at 8ft it’s for the experienced surfers only. And with crowds marked as “sometimes”, you might have a few others with the same idea.

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.
