Alright, this is Rusty. Let's get into it for The Wash Right.
We've got a solid run of surf coming through here. The combined swell energy is strong, hitting four-digit figures like 1190 to 1804 in the early part, so there's plenty of push behind these waves. The water is running at a toasty 88°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, a real anomaly.
The standout session has to be Tuesday the 7th. The morning is glassy with a clean 6ft of SSW groundswell, period of 18 seconds, and strong energy (1804). That's a proper wave, but at that size and with that long period, it's going to be better for experienced surfers. The afternoon holds up just as well, glassy and clean at 5ft. That's the pick of the whole run. Monday the 6th morning is also a winner, glassy and clean with 3ft of that long-period SSW swell (20 seconds) and energy at 1576. That's a more manageable size for a wider range of folks.
The first week looks the best. The swell hangs on through Wednesday and Thursday, but the winds start to mess with it. Wednesday the 8th has a cross-shore wind that mushes things up a bit, and by the afternoon, a cross-onshore breeze with 9 mph winds makes it choppy. Thursday and Friday mornings see a cross-offshore wind, keeping things clean with 4ft SSW swell, but the energy starts to drop into the 800s.
Into the second week, from the 12th onward, the south swell is still there but it's weaker, dropping under 3ft, and the energy fades into the 500-700 range. There are some clean windows, like the mornings of the 14th, 16th, and 19th. The 19th Sunday morning looks promising with glassy conditions and a 3ft SW swell with a period of 16 seconds, energy at 589, but it's a long way off so keep an eye on it. The afternoons and some mornings get blown out by stronger cross and cross-onshore winds, sometimes hitting 12-22 mph, so those are write-offs. From the 15th through the 17th, the swell drops to 2ft and the winds are mostly messy, so it's a bit of a flat and bumpy patch.
So for the best surf, your window is Monday the 6th through Tuesday the 7th, with Tuesday morning being the absolute top call if you can handle a bit of size. The crowds at The Wash Right are noted as sometimes there, so you might have some company, but the quality in that glassy, clean, groundswell will be worth 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.
