Hakashita Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s cooking at our little slice of paradise, Hakashita. This is a reef setup, so it’s got that raw, natural bottom that can really shape up a wave, but it’s not the kind of spot that fires every day. We’re looking at a patchy 16-day window, but there are a couple of windows where it’ll be well worth the paddle out.

The overall pattern is a slow start, a solid mid-range pulse, and then a fade into smaller, cleaner conditions. The wave energy starts off moderate but builds nicely. The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing unusual.

Sunday the 9th is a bit of a write-off. We’ve got a 4.3ft S swell with a short 11-second period, but the wind is a cross-on from the ENE at 9 mph, making it choppy and messy (combined energy 867). It’s a no-go, honestly. The afternoon gets a little bigger at 4.9ft from the E with a 14-second period, but the same cross-on wind ruins it.

Monday morning the 10th is where it starts to get interesting. The wind drops to a glassy 3 mph from the E, and we’ve got a solid 4.9ft E swell rolling in with a 13-second period (combined energy 1075). That’s a proper groundswell, and with glassy conditions, the reef should be cleaning up nicely. This is a stand-out session for the experienced surfer. The afternoon stays okay but the wind shifts cross-on again.

Tuesday the 11th morning is another glassy gem. Dead calm, 0 mph from the NNE, with a clean 3.9ft E swell at 12 seconds (combined energy 667). The shape will be there, and the crowds? They’re *sometimes* around, so you might have a few friends out, but it won’t be a circus.

The swell dips a bit on Wednesday the 12th with a 3.3ft ENE swell (10-second period, combined energy 414), but it’s glassy again in the morning. Small, but clean. Thursday and Friday the 13th and 14th are a waste – tiny, messy, poor conditions. Saturday the 15th isn’t much better with a cross-shore wind.

Now, here’s the real standout. We’ve got a pulse coming through. Monday the 17th morning is looking magic. Glassy winds from the NE at 0 mph, and a 5.6ft E swell with a 10-second period (combined energy 1112). That’s a powerful, clean wave on the reef. It’s a bit on the bigger side, so it’s for the experienced crew, but the quality is there. The afternoon gets a bit sloppy with a cross/onshore, but the morning is a must-paddle.

Tuesday the 18th morning is still good with a glassy 5.2ft E swell (combined energy 504), but the afternoon drops off. Wednesday the 19th morning is the biggest of the run – a glassy 6.6ft E swell, 9-second period (combined energy 1216). That’s a solid push of energy, and it’s clean. At 6.6ft, it’s pushing into expert territory on a reef, so only the brave need apply. The rest of the week after that fades out into smaller, cleaner conditions, with the 23rd and 24th offering glassy mornings on tiny, long-period swells – good for a log, not much else.

So, the two best bets: Monday morning the 17th for that powerful, glassy groundswell, and Wednesday morning the 19th for the biggest, cleanest push of the forecast. The rest is a waiting game or for the small-wave crew.
