The Lowdown

Right then, let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Hakashita over the next couple of weeks.

First up, it’s a reef break, and it’s inconsistent, so you can’t just rock up any time and expect it to be firing. But when it does, it’s an intermediate’s wave. The water is sitting at 84°, which is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.

Now, the big news is a serious swell event hitting on Thursday the 6th of August. We’re talking a hefty 18ft to 20ft of ESE swell, with a long 15-second period. That’s a proper groundswell, packing a massive punch – the combined energy is a whopping 13173 and 16759 across the day. This is expert territory only; anything over 8ft is for the experienced crew, and this is way beyond that. The problem is the wind. Thursday morning’s got a strong NE cross-off at 15 mph, which could clean it up a bit, but the afternoon turns to a 22 mph cross-shore with a risk of thunderstorms. It’s going to be huge, powerful, and very messy. Honestly, for paddle surfing, it’s a write-off, but for the kite crew, that cross-wind and size might be pure heaven.

That big swell hangs around through Friday and Saturday (7th and 8th), but the wind is all wrong – constant cross-onshore from the east, blowing 15 to 19 mph. The wave heights drop from 20ft down to 8ft, but the combo of onshore wind and lumpy, choppy conditions means the surf quality is poor for days. Not worth paddling out.

We then enter a long flat spell. From Sunday the 9th through to Wednesday the 13th, the swell ebbs away to a dribble – nothing over 5ft, mostly small, weak energy (as low as 459 on the combined energy scale), and the winds are light but variable. You might see a few knee-high bumps, but it’s marginal at best. That’s a solid 4-5 days with nothing to get excited about.

There’s a flicker of hope on Saturday the 15th of August. The swell bumps up to 6ft from the east (11-second period), but the real story is the wind. It goes glassy in the morning, with a light N breeze, and then switches to a light NW offshore in the afternoon. That’s a beautiful window for clean, lined-up waves at a reef. The energy is moderate (864), but it’s a rare moment of quality. If you can be there, it’s the best on offer in this whole outlook.

It gets a bit chunky again on Thursday the 20th of August, with a 8ft ESE swell and a clean cross-offshore breeze from the NE at only 6 mph. The combined energy sits at 1173, and it’s marked as excellent for experienced surfers. That’s the second standout – a bit bigger, still clean, but definitely for the experts. The afternoon turns cross-onshore, so get it early.

Overall, the window is pretty bleak for the first week and a half. The only true highlight is that Saturday the 15th with the glass-off, and then the Thursday the 20th for the more advanced. Everything else is small, windy, or just too damn big and messy. Keep an eye on the forecasts, though – sometimes things change.

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.
