Ha Golshim Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s call it like it is – this outlook is a total dud. No good surf options across the whole 16-day span. That’s the raw truth from the data. This spot goes through quiet stretches, so it’s not out of the ordinary. Forecasts can always change, though.

The only break on the map is Ha Golshim, and it’s all “poor surf conditions” from the first day to the last. The combined swell energy stays weak – you’ve got numbers like 11 up to 71, which is still only moderate at best, but the wave comment never flips. Nothing doing.

Water temp anomaly isn’t flagged, so call it about normal for the season.

From September 13th right through to the 28th, same story. You get a few glassy mornings – like Sunday the 13th morning with a 1ft swell from the WNW, glassy wind – but that swell is tiny with a period of just 5 seconds. Not enough to push a ripple. Tuesday the 15th morning has a glassy look with 2ft from the NW, period 6 seconds, energy at 22 – still puny.

The best of a bad bunch is Wednesday the 16th morning: 3ft from the NW, period 7 seconds, energy at 67, glassy wind. Cleanest morning of the whole run. But the wave comment still says “poor surf conditions.” Just no power behind it.

Later, Tuesday the 22nd morning shows 3ft from the WNW again, period 6 seconds, energy at 66, and glassy winds from the SSW. That’s the cleanest look you’ll get, but the period is short – those waves won’t stand up. It’s more like a slightly bumpy lake.

The second week fades into nothing. Swell heights drop under 1ft, energy falls to single digits, and the wind gets messy – cross-on, onshore, moderate breezes. Afternoon of the 28th Monday has 2ft from the WNW with onshore wind, period 6 seconds, energy at 33. Still “poor surf conditions.”

If you’re looking to get wet, this is more of a kite-surfing setup – tiny chop and weak swell. For a surfer? Not a single wave worth paddling for.

Hang in there. Better days will come.
