The Lowdown

G'day, I'm Rusty. Let's talk about what's on offer at Hakashita.

Alright, first up, the water temp is sitting right on 82°F which is pretty much bang on average for this time of year, so no surprises there.

Looking at the next couple of weeks, it's a slow start. The first few days have some tiny waves, but the conditions are just too ordinary to get excited about. You'll see some glassy mornings on the 21st, 23rd, 24th, 25th, and 26th, but the swell is weak—under 2ft—and the energy is low, with values sitting between 65 and 123. It's really just a case of "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions." We're basically waiting for something to kick in.

Now, the real story starts to build on Monday, the 27th of July. The morning shows a glimmer of hope with 3ft of S swell and a 10-second period, combined energy of 234 (moderate), and glassy conditions. The call is "expect good surf conditions." That's the first sign of life.

But the standout period is definitely Wednesday, the 29th of July, through to the end of the month. Wednesday morning is the pick of the entire forecast: 10ft of S swell from the SE, with a period of 11 seconds and a massive combined energy of 3569 (strong to very strong). The wind is glassy from the ENE. This is "excellent surf conditions for experienced surfers" only. Anything over 8ft is for the experts, and that's a big, powerful groundswell. The S direction is spot on for Hakashita's exposed reef setup.

Thursday, the 30th of July, is also a cracker morning with 8ft S swell, 10-second period, and 1967 energy (strong). Glassy again. This is right on the edge for most, but still excellent for those who know what they're doing. Friday, the 31st of July, hangs in there with 6ft S swell, 8-second period, and 828 energy (moderate) in the morning with glassy conditions. It's a step down but still solid.

So, the best on offer is without a doubt Wednesday, the 29th of July morning. That's the big one. The 10ft S swell, long period, and glassy offshore wind are the recipe for a proper session at this reef break. Just remember, it's a heavy wave for experienced surfers only. Crowds are possible at Hakashita, so be prepared to share the takeoff zone. The swell direction is SE, which matches the optimum for this spot.

After that, things get a bit mixed. The first week of August sees size drop off, with winds turning onshore or cross-shore, making conditions messy. The swell is still there, but the quality drops. Expect marginal surf from the 1st to the 3rd, with increasing wind.

The 4th and 5th of August are a write-off for surfing. Strong cross-offshore winds and big energy (over 400) but the swell is tiny and the period is long, so it's breaking straight. The conditions are just poor. Honestly, with that much wind and that much energy, it's more of a kite-surfing setup than a paddle-surfing one.

To sum it up: the first week is flat, the last week of July is where the magic happens, especially the 29th morning. After that, it fades. Don't hold your breath for the second week.

Rusty.

Information about the Hakashita Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Hakashita provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. 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. If you surf the same spot (Hakashita) 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 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.
