The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s happening at The Wash Right for the next couple of weeks.
We start off slow. Wednesday the 15th has almost nothing, but the water is a warm 89°, way warmer than it should be for this time of year. There are small, clean waves from the 15th through the 18th, but the first real window is Sunday the 19th. Morning glass with 4ft of long-period SW swell, and the energy is up there (871). That’s a nice little session.
The standout is Monday the 20th. Early morning, dead calm, glassy with 4ft of SW groundswell. The energy is solid (1036), and for a reef break, that long-period swell is gonna draw some proper lines. That’s the session to aim for.
Tuesday the 21st has some size but the wind gets sloppy. Wednesday the 22nd is clean again with 3ft, but nothing special.
Looking further out, Thursday the 23rd morning is glassy with 4ft, and the next big day is Saturday the 25th. 4ft of SSW swell, clean offshore, with energy pumping (1333). That’s excellent for experienced surfers. Sunday the 26th and Monday the 27th also have 5ft and strong energy, glassy mornings. A great run.
The last week gets messy. Tuesday the 30th has serious size – 8ft to 10ft – but it’s cross-shore and choppy. That’s expert-only territory, and the energy is massive (3607). For a reef break, that’s going to be a wild, unruly beast.
Best bets: the mornings of Monday 20th, Saturday 25th, and Sunday 26th. Clean, glassy, and the reef will be working.
Stay safe, 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.
