The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking.

We’ve got a solid run of surf on the way, but you’ll need to pick your moments. The first real action kicks off Wednesday morning, 22 July, at The Wash Right. It’s a reef break, exposed to the south, and this morning session is looking sweet. We’ve got a clean 3ft swell from the SW, with a lovely 14-second period – that’s proper groundswell, meaning better shaped waves and more energy per set. The wind is a cross-offshore from the east at just 3 mph, so the surface will be glassy. Combined swell energy is a solid 504 (moderate), and it’s feeling like a touch warmer than normal for the time of year with water temps at 88°. This is a real gem for a Wednesday morning, and the vibe is right for a fun session.

Thursday morning, 23 July, holds some promise too, with a 2ft SW swell and the same clean cross-off wind. The energy drops a bit to 335, but it’s still worthwhile. From Friday through the weekend, things get a bit mushy with onshore winds and building swell. Saturday morning, 25 July, sees the swell jump to 4ft from the SW, but the period is a punchy 20 seconds – that’s long-period energy, great for this reef, but the cross-shore wind will put a bit of bump on it. The energy is ramping up to 1282 (strong). By Saturday afternoon, the swell hits 6ft, but that’s getting into expert territory with those long-period waves and a choppy cross-onshore wind.

Now, the standout. Sunday morning, 26 July, is the real deal for experienced surfers. The swell is 5ft from the SW, period of 18 seconds, and the combined energy is a whopping 2954 (strong). The wind is light and cross-offshore from the east at 6 mph, keeping it clean. This is big, powerful, groundswell and it’s going to offer some serious waves. If you’ve got the skills, this is the peak of the run.

Monday and Tuesday, 27-28 July, are messy with strong winds, but Tuesday morning, 28 July, delivers another clean window. A 7ft SSW swell, period of 17 seconds, and a light cross-offshore from the NE – that’s big, powerful, and clean. Energy is 2781 (very strong). This is for experts only, no question.

Looking further ahead, Thursday 30 July and Friday 31 July morning sessions are glassy again. On Thursday morning, we see 5ft from the SSW with a 14-second period, and the wind is a dead flat glassy from the ENE. Energy is 1398 (strong). Thursday afternoon flips to a 5ft WSW swell with a 12-second period, also glassy. Friday morning keeps that glassy theme with a 5ft W swell and 12-second period. Energy is 1084 (strong). These are clean, lined-up waves for the more experienced crew.

The first week of August sees the swell fade. Saturday 1 August is a write-off with onshore wind and dropping energy. Sunday morning 2 August is glassy again, but the swell is only 3ft from the west with an 11-second period – fun for a longboard, but not a standout. After that, things get small and inconsistent through to the end of the forecast on 6 August.

If you’re looking for the best of the best, it’s the Sunday 26 July morning session – that’s the one to clear your calendar for. Tuesday 28 July morning is another big one for the experts. The glassy mornings on Thursday 30 and Friday 31 July are also worth a paddle, but the energy is a step down.

No crowds data for this spot, so you’ll have to feel it out, but for a reef break like this, the long-period swells will be working their magic.

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.
