Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what The Wash Right is serving up over the next couple of weeks.
We’ve got a solid run of surf coming through this south-facing reef. The water’s sitting at a warm 88°, which is a good two degrees warmer than usual for this time of year – that’s a bit of a treat right off the bat. The combined swell energy is moderate to strong throughout, with readings like 816 and 1114 knocking around, so there’s some proper juice in the water. The direction is locked in from the SSW, which is just what this spot wants to see.
The action starts Thursday afternoon, but that first session is a bit of a washout with a light cross-onshore wind and only 4ft of swell. The real kick-off is Saturday morning, July 4. The swell drops a touch to 3ft, but the wind goes glassy out of the NW and the period is a solid 14 seconds. It’s small but clean. Then we get to Sunday morning, July 5 – that’s a standout. You’ve got 4ft of clean SSW groundswell, and the wind is dead calm, absolutely glassy. Combined energy is pumping at 1114. This one’s for the experienced crew, but if you’re good, get out there.
Monday morning, July 6, keeps that clean vibe going with glassy conditions, 3ft of swell, and a very long 20-second period – that’ll wrap nicely into this reef. It’s shaping up to be a beautiful morning. Then Tuesday morning, July 7, the swell jumps to 6ft with a cross-off breeze out of the ENE. That’s getting into the bigger end for this spot – 6ft is pushy, and with a combined energy of 2109, that’s serious power. Only for the experts.
Wednesday morning, July 8, is another clean, cross-off session with 5ft of solid SSW swell. The pattern holds for the first week: mornings are the go, afternoons tend to get a cross-onshore bump and drop in quality. From Thursday, July 9, through the weekend it backs off a little, but there are still glassy windows on Saturday morning, July 11, and especially Sunday morning, July 12, with 4ft and a glassy sea.
The second week thins out. Monday, July 13, offers clean little 3ft waves in the morning, and Wednesday, July 15, is tiny but glassy at 2ft. By Thursday afternoon, July 16, the wind picks up and the period drops, making for poor surf. There’s a little bump on Friday, July 17, with 4ft and a clean cross-off, but the period is only 10 seconds – a bit short and weak compared to the first week’s goodness.
Overall, the best of the best is Sunday morning, July 5, and Tuesday morning, July 7. Don’t sleep on those. Crowds are possible here at times, so get in early.

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.
