The Lowdown
Right then, let’s have a look at what’s on the table for Hangers over the next couple of weeks. I’ll be straight with you, mate – this is a tough stretch. We’re looking at a real flat spell, and honestly, there’s barely a ripple worth getting excited about for days on end.
The first recommendation isn’t until the afternoon of Wednesday, July 15th, and even then, it’s a bit of a struggle. The swell is tiny, just 2 feet from the East, with a short 7-second period, giving us weak wave energy. It’s surfable but very ordinary. The wind is a cross-off from the SW at 9 mph, keeping it clean, but there’s just no push. After that, it’s back to poor conditions with nothing doing until Thursday, July 23rd.
The afternoon of Thursday the 23rd sees a slight improvement. We get 2 feet from the ESE, period still short at 8 seconds, and a bit more energy. The wind swings cross-off from the SSW at 9 mph, so it’s clean again, but these are tiny, weak waves. It’s surfable, but you’ll be working hard for nothing.
Honestly, over this whole 16-day window, there’s nothing that stands out as good surf. The swell never gets above 2 feet, the period is short, and the wind is often onshore or side-on. For any seasoned surfer, this is a write-off. At 2 feet, it’s not even big enough to be a problem for beginners, it’s just… flat. With the persistent onshore flow and tiny, weak swell, this setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer.
The water temperature anomaly isn’t listed for the first break, so I can’t tell you if it’s warmer or cooler than average. But it doesn't really matter when there's no surf to paddle out in.
Keep the sticks in the car and save the energy for another week. Forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a long blank run.

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.
