The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty. Let’s talk about what’s coming up at Hakashita.
Alright, so looking at the next 16 days for Hakashita, it’s a bit of a slow burn. The start of the period is pretty marginal, with a bit of a wait before things clean up. The water temp is sitting at 84°F, which is pretty much normal for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The first real standout window kicks off on Monday morning, August 10th. We’ve got a 5ft easterly swell rolling in with a period of 13 seconds. That’s a solid groundswell with good energy in the water (moderate energy at 1032). The wind goes glassy, light from the NE, so it’s going to be clean. Hakashita is a reef setup, so that long period swell should line up well. This is the pick of the early week.
Tuesday morning, August 11th, is also worth a mention. The swell drops a touch to 4ft, still from the east with a long 12-second period. The wind is dead calm, absolutely glassy. The energy is moderate (613). It’s not as punchy as Monday, but the conditions will be beautiful for a more relaxed session.
After that, the swell fades and the wind turns a bit messy through the middle of the week. There’s a real lull from Thursday, August 13th, through to the following weekend. Several days of small, weak swell and either cross or onshore winds. Honestly, not much to write home about. The energy drops down to weak values (119 to 146) on those days.
Things start to look a bit more promising again around Sunday, August 16th morning. The swell picks back up to 4ft from the east, and we get a light cross-offshore breeze from the NNE, which will clean it up. The period is back to 10 seconds, with moderate energy (303). Not a standout, but a decent option after the flat spell.
Then, Saturday morning, August 22nd, catches the eye. A 5ft swell from the SSE with a 11-second period – that’s moderate energy (506), but the wind is only light cross. It’s a bit of a long-range call, so not as certain, but it has potential. The water might get a bit lumpy by the afternoon though.
Overall, if you’re keen, get out Monday morning the 10th or Tuesday the 11th. That’s your best, cleanest surf. The rest of the window is mostly waiting for the wind to play ball or for a bit more size.

A general guide to surfing at Hakashita can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Hakashita 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.

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 Hakashita 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.
