The Lowdown

G’day, I’m Rusty. Let’s have a look at the surf ahead for Hakashita. This is a reef break, exposed to the south-east swell, but it’s inconsistent and only really for intermediate surfers. The water temp is sitting at 84°F, which is about average for this time of year with a tiny anomaly of just 0.5°F – nothing to write home about.

We’re kicking off Saturday the 29th of August, and honestly, it’s a bit of a slow start. Saturday morning has a weak 3ft south swell with a short 7-second period and a light cross breeze – combined energy is only 228 (moderate), but the conditions are marginal. Saturday afternoon is worse: 4ft, same short period, cross-on wind, and the energy drops to 248. Not worth paddling out.

Sunday the 30th offers a bit of hope. Early morning you’ll find glassy conditions with a tiny 3ft south-south-east swell, period still short at 7 seconds, and combined energy of 141 (weak). It’s surfable but very ordinary. By Sunday afternoon, it’s onshore and messy – 2ft and 106 energy. Skip it.

Monday the 31st starts with a glassy calm and a 1ft east swell with a long 11-second period – energy is only 91 (weak). That’s a groundswell pulse, but it’s tiny and the period is borderline for a reef break. Not much to get excited about. Monday afternoon goes onshore.

Tuesday the 1st of September sees a jump in size with a risk of thunderstorms. Morning brings 5ft south-south-east swell, 8-second period, cross-on wind, and combined energy of 623 (moderate). It’s marginal. Afternoon is 5ft, still cross-on, energy 448 – still poor.

Wednesday the 2nd: morning has 6ft south-south-east swell, 9-second period, onshore wind, and energy of 692 (moderate). Afternoon reaches 7ft south-east, 9 seconds, cross-on, energy 838 (moderate). Both are marginal at best, and the wind is making it ugly.

Thursday the 3rd is where things get serious but not for the faint-hearted. Morning shows 12ft south-south-east swell with an 11-second period – that’s a groundswell, and combined energy is 3358 (very strong). That’s big, over 8ft, so only for experts. The wind is onshore and there’s moderate rain. Afternoon jumps to 13ft, same period, onshore cross-on wind, energy 3894 – poor conditions. This is more kite-surfing territory than clean paddle surfing.

Friday the 4th drops back to 7ft south-east, 9 seconds, cross-on wind, energy 799 (moderate). Still marginal. Afternoon: 6ft, same direction, but wind picks up to 12 mph cross-on, energy 614 – poor.

Now, here’s a standout. Saturday the 5th of September morning – this is the first real bright spot. Glassy conditions, a 6ft east-south-east swell with an 8-second period, and combined energy of 551 (moderate). The wind is dead calm, the swell is a solid size for intermediates, and it’s forecast to be very good. This is the pick of the first week.

Sunday the 6th of September morning has a bigger 10ft east swell, 9-second period, clean cross-off wind from the north-north-east, energy 1371 (strong). That’s excellent for experienced surfers, but it’s pushing into expert territory. Afternoon gets messy with onshore wind.

Monday the 7th of September morning is a monster: 20ft east swell, 12-second period, very long period groundswell, combined energy of 11323 (very strong). That’s massive – only for the bravest experts, and the wind is onshore with risk of thunderstorms. Afternoon drops to 13ft, still huge.

The second week is less certain, but there’s promise. Sunday the 13th of September morning is worth circling: glassy, 12ft east-south-east swell with a very long 13-second period, and combined energy of 4190 (very strong). That’s a clean, powerful groundswell – excellent for experienced surfers, but the long period means it might break a bit straight at the reef, so watch for that. Crowds are possible here, especially with a forecast like that.

Overall, the best on offer is Saturday 5th September morning – clean, glassy, 6ft south-east swell, moderate energy, and perfect for intermediates. The long-range standout is Sunday 13th September morning, but keep an eye on it – long-period groundswells like that can be fickle.

Stay stoked,
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.
