Table - best surf conditions forecast for The Wash Right over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's get into it.
We're looking at a solid run of waves at The Wash Right, a reef setup that's exposed to the south. The water is sitting at 88°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year – a real treat.
The week kicks off on Thursday morning, 9th July, with a clean 4ft SSW swell hitting the coast. The period is a lengthy 15 seconds, so this is proper groundswell, with plenty of energy behind it (871). The wind is glassy, making for some absolutely perfect conditions. It's a cracker of a session. The afternoon sees the wind shift to a light cross-on, so it'll get a bit bumpy, but the morning is the standout.
Friday morning, 10th July, is similar. Still 4ft of that long-period SSW groundswell, but now the wind is a clean cross-offshore. It's going to be a clean, groomed wave. After lunch, the wind picks up and goes cross-shore, making it a bit messy, so hit it early.
Saturday, 11th July, the swell drops slightly to 4ft, but the wind is light and cross-shore. It's not going to be as clean as the previous days, but there are waves to be had. Sunday morning, 12th July, is a real wildcard. There's a risk of thunderstorms, but the wind is glassy again. If you can dodge the rain, the 4ft SSW swell (14 seconds) will be pure glass.
The middle of the week gets a bit wobbly. Monday through Wednesday, we see the swell size dip and the wind becomes a bit more of a factor. Tuesday afternoon, 14th July, sees a bump in energy with a 5ft SE swell, but the wind goes straight onshore, so it's not the best.
Now, the real stand-out for the experienced crew is Friday morning, 17th July. The swell jumps to 6ft from the SSW, with 11-second period and the energy is pumping (1063). The wind is absolutely glassy. This is a powerful wave, and at that size, it's for the experts only. The sets will be pushing through strong, and the reef will be working. It's a serious session.
The following week is a bit more mixed. Saturday, 18th July, starts with glassy conditions and a 4ft WSW swell. Sunday, 19th July, has a long-period 17-second SW groundswell, but the wind is a cross-shore breeze, so it won't be perfect. The energy is decent (1115), but the wind will put a bit of texture on it.
The end of the run, around Wednesday, 22nd July, and Thursday, 23rd July, looks promising again. Wednesday morning and afternoon both have glassy wind and a clean 5ft SW swell. That's a nice, clean wave for everyone. The following Friday, 24th July, also has a clean morning with a cross-offshore wind and 4ft W swell.
So, overall, the best on offer is the Thursday 9th July morning glass-off, and the big one for the experienced surfers is the Friday 17th July morning. Get on it.
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.
