The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here, let’s talk about the Wash Right. We’ve got a solid run of surf coming up, but you’ll need to pick your moments for the cleanest lines.

The swell kicks off Monday the 20th of July with a proper groundswell. Early Monday morning is glassy with a 4ft swell from the SW and a long 16-second period. The wave energy is pumping at (1096), and those clean conditions will have the reef looking smooth. This one’s for experienced surfers though—the power’s up and the period is long, so it’ll be a bit heaving and best for those who know the take-off zone. The water temp is about average for this time of year.

Monday afternoon gets a bit of a cross-on wind, and the session drops off. Tuesday morning cleans up again with a cross-off breeze and a slightly smaller 4ft SW swell (746 energy). It’s a good option if you missed the morning.

Wednesday the 22nd has a glassy morning with 3ft SW swell (568 energy) and a risk of thunderstorms, but those calm winds make it a nice, cruisy wave if you’re after something mellow.

The standout is shaping up for Saturday the 25th of July. The morning is dead calm, glassy, with a 4ft SW swell and a very long 20-second period cranking energy to (1318). Then Saturday afternoon the swell jumps to 5ft, still from the SW, period a solid 19 seconds, and it’s glassy again (2215 energy). This is the best on offer—big power, clean face, and that reef will be firing. Expect crowds sometimes, as the word gets out.

Sunday the 26th keeps it going with another glassy morning, same 5ft SW swell (1781 energy). The afternoon brings onshore wind and a 5ft SSW swell, so morning is the call.

Monday the 27th holds a 5ft SSW early with a cross-off breeze and excellent conditions (1977 energy). This is another top session if you can get out before the onshore afternoon wind kicks in.

The swell builds through the week. Tuesday the 28th has 7ft SSW swell (2649 energy), but the wind goes cross-shore and the period is shorter at 17 seconds. This is getting up there—only for experienced surfers at this size on a reef. Wednesday the 29th is similar with 6ft SSW swell, but the winds are tricky.

By Thursday the 30th of July, it drops back to 4ft and cleaner with a cross-off morning breeze (749 energy). Then the end of the run gets rough: Friday the 31st is small and wind-affected, and Saturday the 1st of August is a write-off with poor conditions and strong cross-shore winds gusting 25 mph.

We do get a couple of small, clean mornings on Sunday the 2nd and Monday the 3rd of August, with 2ft SW swell (316-384 energy) and cross-off winds, but it’s tiny—more of a longboard or funboard wave.

So, to sum it up: the real standouts are Saturday the 25th and Sunday the 26th of July, with Monday the 27th as a close second. Get in early, bring the right board for a powerful reef wave, and enjoy the ride.

Stay stoked,
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.
