Haggerty's Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's brewin' for our local stretch.

We're lookin' at a dry spell to start. The first half-decent chance doesn't roll in until the morning of Monday, July 6th. Friday the 3rd through Sunday the 5th is a total washout with cross-onshore winds and choppy, cruddy conditions. No point paddlin' out.

Come Monday morning, the wind switches to a light cross-offshore, cleanin' things up proper. We got a long-period groundswell from the SSW, only 2 ft, but with a 16-second period it's got some grunt. The combined swell energy sits at 321—moderate. It's small, but it's clean. Water temp's 69°, which is about 5° warmer than it should be for July—real unusual, so a spring suit might be enough.

Tuesday the 7th morning bumps up a touch to 3 ft from the same SSW direction, period still 18 seconds, energy climbin' to 445. But the wind goes cross-shore, puttin' a little crinkle on the surface. Not terrible, but not as crisp as Monday.

The real highlight lands on Wednesday the 8th morning. Light cross-offshore wind again, glassy conditions, with 3 ft of SSW groundswell, 16-second period, and swell energy hittin' 510. This is the peak of the run. The break is Haggerty's—a reef and point setup that loves a groundswell. That long period (16-18 seconds) will wrap around the point nicely, not like at a beach break where it'd just straighten out. Expect company though—crowds are likely on the good days, so set your alarm.

Thursday the 9th morning is a solid runner-up: clean, 3 ft SSW, 16 seconds, energy at 358. After that, the swell starts fadin' and the winds get wonky. From Friday the 10th onward we're droppin' into 1 ft to 2 ft territory, with the odd clean window but mostly onshore chop.

The second week, from around July 12th, gets real quiet. Swell stays under 2 ft, energy drops below 200 for days. There's a few clean mornings on the 14th, 16th, and 17th, but the waves are tiny—1 ft—and just "surfable but ordinary." Not worth chasin'.

So, the call is clear: Monday the 6th and Wednesday the 8th, early, are your best shots. Small but clean, with some long-period push. After that, it's a long lull. But this spot is consistent—it usually doesn't stay flat for long. Forecasts can flip, so keep your ear to the ground.

Rusty.
