The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, signing in. Let's have a look at what's on the menu for the next couple of weeks.
We’ve got a solid run of swell on the way, but it’s not all clean. The real standout is the first few days of the month, kicking off on Wednesday the 2nd. The Wash Right is the spot to be, a reef set-up that handles the swell direction well. Wednesday morning is where it's at: a solid 5.9ft SW swell rolling in with a glassy, NNE breeze of only 3 mph. The wave energy is pumping at 1306, and conditions are absolutely primo for the experienced surfer. That’s your best bet, no question. The water temp is about average for the time of year, so a standard spring suit will do fine.
Thursday the 3rd morning is also a cracker, with a push of 4.6ft SW swell from a very long 18-second period, and the wind is dead calm. The energy is high at 1508, so expect some beautiful, clean lines. That long period will mean it’s a bit more walled up at the beach, but on this reef, it’ll be magic.
The swell hangs around through the weekend, but the wind gets messy. Friday and Saturday see lighter cross-shore breezes, but the swell quality drops off a bit. The energy remains high, but it's not the clean, glassy perfection we had to start.
By the second week, the swell settles down, but we get some nice, clean windows. Tuesday the 8th and Wednesday the 9th both have early-morning glass with 3.0ft SW swell, offering some clean, fun waves for the crew. The 6th of September sees the swell dropping off and the wind getting onshore, so that's a write-off.
Looking further out, the 14th of September holds a small, glassy 2.6ft swell with a very long 18-second period, and the 17th of September brings a tiny 2.0ft SW swell but with a massive 22-second period. That's a super long-period groundswell, but it’s a very small wave. You’d need a longboard and a very forgiving reef, but it could be a fun, quiet session.
In short, get on it Wednesday morning the 2nd, or Thursday morning the 3rd. That's the absolute peak of the window. The rest is a mix of small clean windows and choppy afternoons.

Information about the The Wash Right Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for The Wash Right provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at The Wash Right can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our The Wash Right 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 (The Wash Right) 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 The Wash Right 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.
