The Lowdown

Alright, this is Rusty. Let’s talk about what Singleton is showing us.

The first real highlight is Thursday the 13th of August, first thing. The wind is dead glassy out of the ENE at just 3 mph. Swell is a solid 7 ft from the WSW with a very long 17-second period. That’s a lot of energy in the water (2862). This is a groundswell, and that kind of period can make waves pitchy, so it’s for the experienced crew. Water temp is 63°, which is a bit colder than normal.

Friday the 14th keeps it going in the morning. Swell is 7 ft from the WSW, still a long 16-second period. Wind is light NE at 3 mph, cross-off, keeping it clean. Energy is strong (2198). Another one for the experienced surfers.

Saturday the 15th eases to 6 ft, but the wind goes offshore from the NNE at 9 mph. The period drops to 14 seconds. Still a good, clean wave. Moderate energy (1127).

From Sunday the 16th on, it gets messy. Monday the 17th and Tuesday the 18th see the swell jump to 12 ft. That’s too big for this break, even when the wind is good. The energy is very strong (6910). It’s a big-wave, expert-only situation, but not a good paddle session.

Thursday the 20th has a glassy 10 ft swell from the W with a 15-second period. Still too much size for a quality ride. Energy is very strong (5094).

Things calm down on Wednesday the 26th of August. The morning brings a clean 5 ft swell from the WSW with a 14-second period. ESE cross-off wind at 9 mph. Energy is moderate (933). Then Thursday the 27th drops to 3 ft with a clean offshore breeze from the ENE at 12 mph. Period is 12 seconds, energy is weak (296). Small but clean.

The last call is Friday the 28th of August. The morning has a 3 ft swell from the WSW with a long 16-second period and an offshore NE wind at 16 mph. Energy is weak (557). The afternoon looks better, with 4 ft and a gentle offshore breeze. That afternoon is the best small-wave window of the whole forecast.

The absolute standouts are Thursday the 13th morning and Friday the 14th morning. That glassy, long-period groundswell is the real deal. After that, there are days of poor conditions or too much size until the end of the run, when clean but much smaller waves show up.

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.

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.
