The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s talk about The Wash Right in feet and degrees.
The water’s running about 88°, which is a touch warmer than normal for the season. You’ll notice it.
It’s a slow start, but there’s some clean, small stuff coming. Monday morning, August 3rd, is a real treat. We’ve got glassy north wind at 3 mph, and a 3ft SSW swell with a nice 13-second period. That’s long-period groundswell, and on a reef, that’ll give you some clean, lined-up waves. The energy is moderate (355), so it’s not a beast, but it’s tidy.
The one to really mark on the calendar is Friday morning, August 14th. We’re looking at a solid 4ft SSW swell, with a long 17-second period, and glassy north wind at 3 mph. The combined energy is strong at 1138 – that’s a proper setup. Conditions are excellent for experienced surfers. The Wash Right is a reef, so that long-period groundswell will wrap in beautifully. Just know that crowds are possible here, so get down early.
The rest of the first week is a mix of very small, glassy mornings (1ft to 2ft) and afternoons that get messy with onshore wind. The 6th morning has a clean 3ft swell with a cross-offshore wind, which is rideable.
Into the second week, from the 11th to the 17th, we’ve got a solid run of waist-to-chest high SSW swell (3ft to 4ft), with plenty of glassy or calm mornings. The 17th Monday morning, with a 4ft swell and dead calm, zero wind, is another quiet, clean option.
Bottom line: Friday the 14th morning is the standout. The rest has some small, clean windows, but that one’s got the size and the smoothness.
Rusty.

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.
