The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s look at what’s shaping up for The Wash Right. This is a reef setup that's exposed to the south, and it’s got a decent run of swell on the cards, but we’ve got to be patient for the real standouts.

The pattern starts off a bit average. Monday morning, the 10th of August, kicks off with a clean 3 ft SSW swell. The period is 13 seconds, and with glassy conditions and light easterly airs, it’ll be surfable. The wave energy is moderate (609). Things get a bit messy Monday afternoon as the wind swings westerly, flattening out the swell. Tuesday and Wednesday stay in that marginal zone – the swell holds around 3 ft with a decent period, but the wind is mostly cross or cross-on, keeping the surface a little lumpy.

The first real standout window arrives on Friday morning, the 14th of August. The swell bumps up to 4 ft from the SSW, but the period jumps to 18 seconds. That’s proper groundswell, and the combined energy is strong (1307). The wind is glassy from the southeast, so this will be clean. Being a reef, that long period will wrap in nicely and offer some real power. This is one of the best windows on offer.

The weekend gets bigger. Saturday morning, the 15th, sees 5 ft SSW swell with a 16-second period (1156 energy) and a light cross-offshore breeze. The size is starting to get up there. By Sunday the 16th, the swell drops slightly to 4 ft, but the wind is dead calm in the morning. Glassy, 14-second swell – it’ll be a fun, cleaner session.

We then have a bit of a lull through the middle of the week, with the swell staying around 3-4 ft. The wind is variable, mostly cross or onshore, keeping things average. However, there are a couple of nice glassy mornings on Wednesday the 19th and Thursday the 20th, with clean 3-4 ft SSW swell. Those are solid, mellow windows.

The standout of the entire forecast, though, is Tuesday morning, the 25th of August. That’s over a week and a half away so keep an eye on it, but it looks promising. Swell jumps to 8 ft from the SSE. The period is 11 seconds, which is solid, but the wave energy is massive (3382). This is a big, powerful swell. The wind is glassy from the ENE. This is only for experienced surfers, as it’s well over the 8 ft mark. For those with the skills, this could be the session of the month.

The water temperature is about average for the time of year, nothing too unusual.

To be honest, if you’re looking for the best on offer, that Friday the 14th morning with the long-period groundswell and glass, and that Tuesday the 25th morning for the big swell, are your two standout sessions. The rest of the time is a mix of small, clean windows and average, choppy afternoons.

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.
