Alright, Rusty here, letting you know what’s cookin’. We got a run of South swell at The Wash Right, a reef that likes that south angle. The water’s sitting at 88°, which is way warmer than usual for this time of year—real tropical.
First call is Sunday morning, July 5th: clean 4ft swell from the SSW, 16-second period, glassy. The energy is strong (1114). That’s your best bet of the whole 16 days—perfect conditions. Afternoon goes choppy.
Monday morning, July 6th: drops to 3ft but the period stretches out to 20 seconds—very long period groundswell. Glassy again. Tuesday morning, July 7th: biggest of the run at 6ft, 18-second period, glassy. That’s for experts only. Energy is huge at 1817.
Wednesday morning, July 8th: still 5ft but wind gets bumpy. Thursday and Friday mornings, July 9th and 10th: back to 4ft, but with offshore or glassy wind. Clean again.
Saturday, July 11th and Sunday, July 12th mornings: drop to 4ft. Sunday glassy with 14-second period—fun, not epic.
From Monday, July 13th, the swell fades under 3ft, and the wind turns messy. Thursday, July 16th morning: tiny 2ft with 16-second period, clean but weak.
Friday, July 17th morning: a short-period 4ft from the south pops up—clean, but low energy at 437.
Then the finish: Sunday, July 19th and Monday, July 20th mornings: 3ft, 16 to 17-second period, glassy. Energy back over 500. A clean, smaller run to close out the window.
Best on offer: Sunday morning, July 5th—4ft, clean, glassy. Tuesday morning, July 7th, is the biggest for experts. End of the window offers a clean, smaller return of the same swell.
Rusty, out.

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.
The Wash Right is 93 km (58 miles) from Tecoman. If you plan a holiday in Michoacan, look for hotels and other accommodation in Tecoman. Tecoman has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
