The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s coming for the next couple of weeks at Hakashita.
For now, the surf is flat and sloppy. The first real chance to paddle out shows up on the morning of September 14 – a small, clean swell from the ESE pushing about 4ft. Winds are cross-offshore, and there’s enough energy (268) to get a few rides. Nothing special, but it’s a start.
The one to keep an eye on is the morning of September 20. That’s when a solid ESE groundswell arrives – 15ft with a long 15-second interval and a clean cross-offshore breeze. The combined energy is massive (8066). This is big, powerful surf for experts only. The water sits around 82°F, which is about normal for the season.
By September 22, the swell jumps even bigger – over 21ft from the SE – but the wind turns onshore and choppy, and the report says it’s simply too big for the break. That one’s a no-go.
After that, the surf fades fast. September 23 offers some clean 4ft leftovers, but from the 24th onward it drops to under 2ft with weak energy and stays that way through the end of the forecast. A few glassy mornings pop up toward September 27, but there’s hardly any swell to ride.
If you want a proper, memorable session, aim for the morning of September 20. It’s still a ways out, but the signs are promising.
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.
