G’day, Rusty here. Let’s cut to it – Haggerty's is going to be a game of patience over the next couple of weeks. The water is sitting at a very unusual 68°F for early July, which is about 5°F warmer than normal, so you can leave the steamer at home.

The main story is a long-period SSW groundswell, but that cross-onshore wind is going to be a real pain. The first few days are a total loss. We’ve got a three-day gap from the start with nothing worth paddling out for.

The standout window starts on Monday 6 July morning. The wind swings light and cross-off from the south, cleaning up the 2ft SSW groundswell with a 16-second period. That’s proper groundswell energy, and the combined energy is a moderate 311. The wave comment says good conditions. This is your first real chance, but it’s only for the morning before the wind goes bad.

Tuesday 7 July morning is the cream of the crop. Swell pushes to 3ft from the SSW, still with an 18-second period, and combined energy jumps to a solid moderate 458. The wind is again light and cross-off from the south – clean as a whistle. Get in early because the afternoon is a write-off.

Wednesday 8 July morning is almost as good – 3ft SSW swell at 16 seconds, clean cross-off wind, and combined energy hitting a strong moderate 510, the highest of the whole run. The wave comment says good surf. If you can only pick one session, make it this one.

After that, it’s downhill. Thursday 9 July morning still offers a clean 3ft SSW swell with a 16-second period and moderate energy of 369, but it’s not as good as the early week. The rest of the second week is mostly small and onshore junk.

We get one oddball on Wednesday 15 July afternoon – the wind goes glassy, and you’ve got a tiny 1.0ft SW swell with a 17-second period. Combined energy is moderate at 114. The wave comment says surfable but very ordinary. Not much to get excited about, but it’ll be glassy.

To be honest, your only real windows are Monday 6 July, Tuesday 7 July, and Wednesday 8 July mornings. The size stays small, so it’s fine for learners, but that long period will make it work best on the point at Haggerty's. Expect crowds – it’s always busy here. After that, it’s a long, flat run with a few tiny pulses.

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.

Haggerty's is 5 km (3 miles) from Redondo Beach. If you plan a vacation in Los Angeles County, look for hotels and other accommodation in Redondo Beach. Redondo Beach has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
