The Lowdown

Alright, this is Rusty, and I’m looking at a 16-day run for Hakashita. This spot is an intermediate reef break, exposed to the swell, and it’s set up best with an east-southeast direction. It’s an inconsistent wave, so when it gets going, you better be on it.

We start off slow. Tuesday (1st September) is a write-off with stormy weather, cross-onshore winds, and only knee-high slop. The water temp is sitting at 84°, which is about normal for this time of year.

Wednesday morning (2nd) is the first real look. Swell jumps to 6ft from the SSE with a clean cross-offshore NNE breeze. The combined energy is moderate at 614, but that's solid for this spot. It’s only a 9-second period, so not a classic groundswell, but the conditions will be tidy. The afternoon gets a bit crossed up with wind, so hit the early. Crowds are *sometimes* a factor, so you might see a few out.

Thursday (3rd) actually pushes some size – 7ft from the SE in the morning, but that moderate cross-shore wind and 11-second period makes it a bit warped. The afternoon cleans up nicely with a cross-off, but it’s still a mixed bag quality-wise. The energy is now over 1100 (moderate), but the scores are only marginal.

Friday (4th) is a messy day with heavy rain and a gale-force cross-off by the arvo, pushing 7ft and a very short period. That’s not for paddling; that’s a kite day. Saturday (5th) gets big – 10ft to 12ft from the ENE. The combined energy hits 2803 and 4263 (strong to very strong). The wind is clean in the morning, but with that size and short period, this is strictly for experts only. This is big, unruly power.

Sunday (6th) to Monday (7th) hangs around the 6ft to 7ft mark with cleaner winds, but the swell direction is shifting easterly and the quality is still just okay. There’s a gap here where nothing is firing.

The standout window opens from Friday the 11th through Wednesday the 16th. The absolute best of the whole run is Tuesday the 15th morning. We’ve got an 12ft swell from the east with a very long 15-second period. That’s proper groundswell. The combined energy is a massive 6404 (very strong), with light offshores from the NW. For a reef break like Hakashita, this is the one. That’s exceptional, heavy, expert-level surf. The afternoon hangs on at 10ft, but gets a messy cross-on.

The next morning, Wednesday the 16th, is a sleeper pick. It drops to a much cleaner 6ft from the east at 12 seconds, and the wind is completely glassed out – 0 mph from the NNW. That will be clean, clean, clean. The energy is 1313, which is very manageable. This is the session for the intermediate crew if the 15th is too heavy.

So, for the highlight: Tuesday the 15th morning at Hakashita is the big dog. Big east swell, long period, light offshore wind. That’s the one to circle, but it is only for experts. The Wednesday morning glass-off is the one for everyone else.

Rusty out.

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.
