The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty with the outlook in feet, degrees in Fahrenheit, and miles per hour.
The Wash Right is a reef break that breaks fairly consistently. The water is sitting at about 89°F, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year. The first week has some clean windows, but the second week is where the real gems are.
Monday the 10th starts off glassy, with a 5 mph ENE breeze and a 3ft swell from the SSW at 13 seconds. The combined energy is moderate at 609. That morning is your window; the afternoon gets cross-on and smaller.
Tuesday the 11th and Wednesday the 12th see light cross-shore winds and knee-to-waist high swell (3ft to 4ft), but nothing special. Thursday the 13th is more small and light.
Friday the 14th morning is the standout. A nice 4ft groundswell from the SW with a 18-second period, and a clean cross-offshore breeze from the east at 5 mph. The combined energy measures 1261 – solid. It’s clean, it’s got power, and it’s the best on offer. Crowds are possible here, so get wet early. This one is for experienced surfers.
Saturday the 15th holds 5ft of swell, but the winds are cross-shore to cross-on, so it’s messy.
Sunday the 16th morning is glassy again – zero wind, 4ft of SW swell at 15 seconds – clean and inviting.
The next week is quiet. From the 17th through the 22nd, surf runs 3ft to 4ft with mostly cross or onshore wind. There are glassy pockets on Thursday the 20th (3ft, glassy both morning and afternoon) and Saturday the 22nd morning, but it’s small.
The long-range surprise is Sunday the 23rd morning. Glassy, 5 mph east wind, and a 2ft groundswell from the SW with a very long 18-second period. Combined energy is moderate at 531. A long period like that on the reef will reel off some clean lines – just small. The 24th and 25th mornings have more glassy, knee-high drifters. Fun, but not a monster session.
No giant days, but a few very good mornings. The clear standout is Friday morning the 14th for its clean power.
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.
