The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let's break this one down.

The Wash Right is shaping up to be a real player over the next couple of weeks. We've got a steady diet of long-period SSW groundswell, and the water is sitting at 89°, which is a touch warmer than normal for late August. That combined wave energy is solid, hitting the 571 mark on Thursday morning and climbing from there, so there's plenty of juice in the lineup.

It kicks off this Thursday morning, the 27th. It's small, at 2ft, but with that big 18-second period from the SSW and a light cross-off breeze, it'll be clean and have plenty of punch for its size. A decent warm-up, though the afternoon gets a bit sloppy with the wind swinging onshore.

The real standout is Friday morning, the 28th. The swell bumps up to a clean 4ft from the SSW, period is still a juicy 17 seconds, and we are looking at glassy conditions. The combined energy is climbing to 1043 – that's a solid pulse of energy, and with a flat calm ocean, this is your best bet of the first week. It's getting up in size, so more for the experienced folks in the water.

Saturday the 29th sees the swell push past 5ft. It's not huge, but with a cross-shore breeze, it'll get a bit bumpy. The morning is the better option, but it's far from perfect.

Into the second week, we have more top-shelf windows. Sunday the 30th morning, 5ft and clean with a cross-off wind is a quality session. Then it really fires back up on Thursday the 3rd of September morning. Glassy conditions, 5ft of groundswell from the SW with an 18-second period, and the energy is pumping at 1330. That is a big, clean, powerful swell. Mark that one in the calendar.

Later on, there are more decent calls. The 6th of September morning is 4ft and glassy with a 15-second period – a beautiful, clean long-period wave. The 10th of September morning is also glassy with a 5ft SW swell. The second week has these clean mornings, but as always with the long-range stuff, keep an eye on it.

Remember, this is a reef break, so know the bottom. With these long-period swells – 18, 17, 16 seconds – it's proper groundswell. That means it'll stand up nicely on the reef with some good shape, but the lulls between sets will be longer, making the paddle out a bit easier. The crowds can be an issue here sometimes, so on those glassy mornings, expect a few others chasing the same perfection.

Bottom line: the top picks are Friday the 28th morning for the first real taste, and Thursday the 3rd of September morning for the best of the second week. Go get some.

Rusty.

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.
