The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's cookin' at Hakashita over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, we've got a pretty flat spell to get through. The first week or so is looking real quiet, so don't be in a rush. The water temp is hangin' around 83°, which is dead average for this time of year, so you won't need a thick suit.
Things start to get a little interesting on Sunday, August 2nd. The morning brings a pulse of 2ft groundswell out of the ESE with a period of 16 seconds. The energy jumps up (293) and it's glassy – that's a promising sign of life. The afternoon gets better: the swell builds to 4ft from the ESE, the period stays long at 15 seconds, and it's still glassy. The energy is solid (671) and the conditions are lookin' real tidy for a Sunday sesh.
Now, the real standout – the one you've been waitin' for – is Monday, August 3rd. The morning is set to be absolutely firing for experienced surfers. We're looking at a 7ft swell from the ESE, a very long period of 18 seconds, and glassy conditions. That's proper groundswell energy (2621), and at this size it's gettin' too meaty for the beginners. Remember, a long period like that means it'll be better at a reef setup like Hakashita, but at a beach break it can break a bit too straight. This is a reef, so it should handle it well.
Hold onto your boards, because Tuesday, August 4th is the pick of the whole run. The morning is exceptional, with a massive 12ft swell from the ESE, a very long 19-second period, and glassy conditions. The energy is through the roof (9627), but this is strictly for expert surfers only. Anything over 8ft is big, and this is well into that territory. You'll want to be on your A-game. The crowds are sometimes a factor here, so on a day like this, expect some company if it's as good as it looks.
The quality holds through the next few mornings. Wednesday, August 5th and Thursday, August 6th both offer 12ft swells from the E, with glassy mornings and powerful energy readings (7941 and 6892). Again, big, powerful, and for experts only. By Friday, August 7th, the swell starts to ease back to a still-chunky 8ft, but the wind is lookin' a bit more suspect with a light cross-onshore.
So, to sum it up: you've got a quiet first week, then a barnstorming week from Sunday, August 2nd right through to the end of the outlook. The standout is Tuesday, August 4th – that is a once-in-a-forecast type morning. Set your alarms.
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.
