Table - best surf conditions forecast for Haggerty's over the next 16 days.
G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’m not gonna lie to you – it’s a pretty bleak stretch ahead for Haggerty's. We’ve got a long, drawn-out run of mostly poor surf with only a few flickers of something rideable. The water is sitting at a very warm 68°, which is 4° above normal for this time of year – that’s much warmer than usual, so you can leave the thick wettie at home.
The best of a very average bunch comes on Thursday July 9th. We’re looking at a clean 3ft swell out of the SSW, with a solid 16-second period. That’s a proper groundswell, so it’ll have some push and shape, but with that long period, it might wrap a bit too straight across the beach sections – better to sit on the point. Winds are light cross-off from the south at 6 mph, keeping the faces tidy. The combined energy is moderate (392), and it’s about as good as it gets in this window. This is beginner-friendly, but crowds are likely here, so get in early.
Friday the 10th and Saturday the 11th are surfable but very ordinary – same 2ft SSW swell with a 15-second period. Light cross-off winds keep things clean, but the energy drops a little each day (237 down to 202). It’ll be rideable, just don’t expect any fireworks.
After that, it’s a proper dry spell. From Sunday the 12th right through to Tuesday July 21st, it’s mostly poor surf conditions with cross-onshore winds and choppy lineups. There’s a tiny window on Saturday the 18th afternoon where a light offshore from the SE at 6 mph cleans up a 2ft SW swell (18-second period, energy of 231), giving us a surfable but very ordinary session.
Honestly, there’s no standout in this 16-day run. If you’re desperate, Thursday the 9th is your best shot. Otherwise, keep the board in the car and hope the forecasts shift.
Rusty.

Information about the Haggerty's Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Haggerty's provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Haggerty's can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Haggerty's 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 (Haggerty's) 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 Haggerty's 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.
