The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, let’s break down what’s on the cards for Singleton.
Honestly, the first part of this forecast is a bit of a bummer. For the next week or so, we’ve got a lot of size coming in, but the wind is just trashing it. The swell is coming from the WSW, and the energy is huge—we’re talking four-digit and five-digit numbers (like 3937, 7845, and even 11237)—so there’s plenty of power, but it’s all churned up. Not good for paddling.
From Thursday the 6th of August through to Tuesday the 12th, every session is blown out. Onshore winds, cross-on winds, gusts up to 34 mph, and rain. The water temp is about 64°, which is normal for this time of year, with a slight cooling anomaly of about 1°—nothing unusual.
Now, the swell is too big for beginners at this spot, and once it’s over 8 ft, it’s expert-only. Even on Sunday morning the 9th, when the wind drops to a light 6 mph from the NNE and it cleans up, the swell is 12 ft. That’s big, powerful, and with a long period of 17 seconds, it’s a proper groundswell. At a beach break, that kind of period can make it close out, but if you’re skilled, the paddle out might be easier between sets.
The standout window—and I mean the best on offer—comes on Thursday the 13th of August. The swell drops to 7 ft from the WSW, with a 16-second period, and the wind is a light 3 mph from the NNE, giving us a clean, cross-off breeze. The water will be glassy. That’s the day for experienced surfers to get out. The combined energy is still high (3167), but it’s manageable. It’s not a beginner wave, but for a crew that knows what they’re doing, that’s the pick of the whole 16 days.
Friday the 14th is also a good call with a 7 ft swell from the WSW and offshore winds from the NE at 6 mph. Clean again, but a little smaller. After that, the weekend of the 15th and 16th starts to get messy with more onshore wind and increasing size again.
For the second week, from the 17th onward, the swell hangs around 10 ft to 13 ft, and it’s mostly cross-on or onshore. Not ideal. There’s a hint of glass on the 19th afternoon, but with a 13 ft swell, that’s a hard pass for all but the most hardcore.
So, bottom line: the first week is a washout. The best waves are on Thursday the 13th and Friday the 14th of August. Get on it if you’re an experienced surfer, because the rest of the window is either too big, too windy, or both.

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.
