Hakashita Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about what we've got lined up for this stretch.

The forecast is a bit of a mixed bag for Hakashita. We've got some solid windows, but you'll need to pick your moments carefully. Overall, there's some fun surf on the horizon, especially if you're willing to be patient.

Let's start with Tuesday morning the 8th. It's not the biggest, with chest-to-head-high sets around 3ft from the SSE, but the wind is a light cross-off from the north, so it'll be clean. The combined swell energy is moderate at 290, and with the reef handling the longer 9-second period, it should offer some lined-up walls. A solid, quiet option to ease into the week.

Wednesday morning the 9th is a true standout. The wind drops to nothing—completely glassy—and we’ve got a punchy 5ft swell from the ESE with 8-second period. The combined energy is 264, moderate but with enough push. This is your best bet for a clean, fun session before any afternoon rain showers mess with things. Get out there early.

The energy picks up significantly around Tuesday the 15th. Morning sees a 5ft ESE swell with 10-second period and light cross-off winds—very clean. The combined energy jumps to 531, a strong reading. This is another top call, but keep in mind that 5ft at a reef break can be a bit much for beginners, and with crowds listed as "sometimes," you might have some company for the good ones. By the afternoon, the swell bumps up to 6ft and the energy rockets to 1197, which is very strong. That’s expert territory, especially with the cross-shore wind starting to add a bit of chop.

We hit a dry spell from the 17th through the 20th. The swell drops right off, with combined energy falling below 200 and waves barely breaking at 1ft to 3ft. Most days have poor conditions with cross-onshore winds. It's a proper lull.

Things finally wake up again on Monday the 21st. The morning is glassy, with a 4ft swell from the east, period of 7 seconds, and energy at 162. It's ordinary but rideable. The afternoon, though, is where it gets good again. The wind goes dead calm, glassy as a mirror, and the swell holds at 5ft from the east with energy climbing to 207. That’s a clean, fun session to end the day on.

Then Tuesday the 22nd rolls in with more glassy conditions and a 4ft east swell, energy at 208. Another clean morning on offer.

So, the standout days are Wednesday the 9th for the glassy perfection, and Tuesday the 15th for the biggest, most powerful swell of the run. The second week is mostly a bust until that Monday and Tuesday the 21st and 22nd clean up nicely.

Rusty, signing off.
