The Lowdown
Alright folks, it’s Rusty here with a look at the next couple of weeks down at The Wash Right. This is a reef break that’s pretty consistent, and it’s exposed to the south swell. The water is sitting at 87°F right now, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.
The main event kicks off this Saturday morning, the 5th of September. We’ve got a solid 6ft SSW groundswell with a long period of 16 seconds. The combined energy is strong (1713) and the wind is glassy, dead calm. This is a serious setup, but with that size, it’s strictly for experienced surfers. This is the standout of the whole forecast. The swell is a little long in the tooth for a beach break, but this is a reef, so it’ll handle it beautifully.
The rest of the first week looks good, too. Sunday morning, the 6th, is glassy with a 5ft SSW swell, and Monday morning is clean with a 4ft swell. The energy drops through the week, but the wind stays light and mostly offshore or glassy, keeping things clean. Thursday the 10th and Friday the 11th start to get a bit sloppy with cross-onshore winds in the afternoons, but the mornings are still tidy.
After a bit of a lull, the second week brings another promising window. The morning of Wednesday the 16th has glassy conditions and a 4ft SSW swell. The real highlight, though, is Sunday the 20th of September. We’re looking at a clean, cross-offshore wind with a 4ft SW groundswell running at a very long 19 seconds. The combined energy is strong (1101). It’s a stand-out session for the second week, but it’s far out, so don’t lock it in just yet.
Keep in mind, this spot can get crowded sometimes, so get out there early.
Rusty, signing off.
