The Lowdown

Alright crew, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for Hakashita over the next couple of weeks.

We’re startin’ off with a flat spell. The first few days, Friday the 31st of July through Saturday the 1st of August, are a total write-off – tiny, weak swell with barely any energy (32 to 28) and poor surf conditions. Not worth paddlin’ out. Sunday the 2nd of August shows a glimmer of life. The early morning glass-off is a beauty, with a clean 2ft swell from the ESE, a very long 16-second period, and moderate energy (238). That’s a proper groundswell, but at a reef break like this, those long lines could be a bit tricky if it’s not hittin’ the peak just right. Still, it’s the first real chance for a wave.

Water temp is sittin’ around 86°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year – you won’t be needin’ a thick suit.

The real standout is the build-up from Monday the 3rd of August. Swell size jumps to 5ft on Monday morning, risin’ to 6ft by the afternoon, with that ESE direction and a solid 16-second period. The energy is climbin’ fast (1207 to 1886). The wind is cross-shore and light, so it’s gonna be a bit bumpy but still rideable for the intermediate surfer. From Tuesday the 4th onwards, things get serious. The swell hits 10ft on Tuesday morning with a massive 18-second period and very strong energy (5204). That’s big, powerful stuff. The wind stays cross-shore, which is okay, but this size is for experienced surfers only – beginners stay well clear.

Wednesday the 5th of August is the peak of the first big pulse. We’re lookin’ at 16ft to 18ft early, with a colossal 18-second period and energy goin’ through the roof (14055 to 19664). The wind is a moderate cross-shore, so it’ll be a lumpy, powerful beast. This is big-wave territory only. The forecast even says it might be too big for this break by the afternoon, which tells you all you need to know.

Then Thursday the 6th of August is just insane – 30ft swell with 19-second period and energy at 56593. That’s a massive, dangerous swell. The wind is a fresh cross-shore, makin’ it a real battle. Again, only for experts, and even then, you’d want to be very sure of the spot. This trend continues into Friday the 7th, with 26ft to 20ft swell and a fresh cross-onshore wind, which is gonna be messy and lumpy. Not ideal.

After that, the swell drops sharply. Saturday the 8th and Sunday the 9th of August still have 8ft to 10ft of swell, but the wind is a fresh to moderate cross-onshore, and the water’s gonna be choppy. Those are poor surf days. Then we hit a gap from Monday the 10th of August through to Thursday the 13th of August – the swell tails off to 3ft to 6ft, and the wind is mostly cross-shore or cross-onshore, leadin’ to marginal conditions. A bit of a lull.

The best bet for the cleaner, smaller waves comes later in the window. Mark your calendar for Tuesday the 11th of August morning. You’ll find a clean 5ft swell from the E, with a 13-second period (1057 energy) and a nice cross-offshore breeze. The report says “excellent surf conditions for experienced surfers,” and that’s a rare gem in this forecast. The lineup should be clean, with good shape. Also, Friday the 14th of August morning is a solid pick – a clean 5ft swell from the E, 12-second period, and a cross-offshore wind. The energy is moderate (726), and the conditions are described as “very good.” Crowds are possible at Hakashita, so get there early.

The biggest, most consistent swell is the first week of August, but it’s wild and big. The real highlights for good, clean surf are the Tuesday the 11th and Friday the 14th of August morning sessions. The forecast is a bit more uncertain that far out, but it’s lookin’ promising.

Stay safe out there. This is Rusty, signin’ off.

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.
