The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – the next 16 days at Hangers are looking pretty grim. We’ve got a long stretch of nothing happening, and I mean nothing. The first real blip on the radar doesn't show up until Saturday the 8th of August, and even then, it's barely a whisper.
From now until then, it's a total write-off. We're looking at a gap of about 8 days with no surf worth mentioning. Tiny, weak swells with pitiful energy (between 11 and 46 units of combined energy), and the wind is all over the place – cross-off, onshore, you name it. It's just not happening.
So, let's talk about that Saturday the 8th. We finally get a bit of a pulse. The morning of Saturday the 8th of August is our only real standout. The swell will be a tiny 2ft from the East, with a period of 8 seconds. The energy is still very weak, hitting only 71 units. But here's the kicker – the wind is forecast to be glassy, dead calm (0 km/h). That means Hangers will be flat as a tack but clean as a whistle. For a beach and reef setup, that's about the only way you're gonna get a slide.
It's not going to be big, it's not going to be powerful, but if you're desperate for a few ankle-biters on a glassy surface, that's your window. For the rest of the 16 days, the swell stays tiny, the wind is mostly cross-onshore or choppy, and the energy is pathetic. It's a tough stretch.
Stay patient, keep your eye on the forecast, and don't smash your gear on the rocks trying to make something out of nothing.

Information about the Hangers Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Hangers provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Hangers can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Hangers 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 (Hangers) 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 Hangers 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.
