G’day, Rusty here. I’m not gonna sugarcoat it—this 16-day run for Hangers is a real bummer. We’re looking at a long stretch of tiny, weak waves that barely qualify as surf. The whole period is filled with slop, and the best energy we see is a combined 90 (that’s on Thursday afternoon the 9th), which is barely a pulse. If you’re keen to get wet, you’ll be chasing shadows.
It starts Sunday, July 5th. Glassy conditions in the morning, but it’s just 1ft of weak ESE swell at 8 seconds. Water temp is 85°, pretty normal for this time of year. The problem is it’s tagged as “poor surf conditions,” and that doesn’t change much. Monday the 6th morning has offshore wind and clean conditions, but it’s still only 1ft of nothing.
The closest thing to a highlight is Thursday morning, July 9th. Light cross-off breeze, clean surface, and the swell nudges up to 2ft from the ESE with a 9-second period. The combined energy hits 56—still weak, but it’s the only session with a “surfable” note. For a spot that’s fairly consistent, this is a rough patch.
From there, it’s rinse and repeat. Friday the 10th has 2ft but onshore wind messes it up. Saturday the 11th, Sunday the 12th, all the way through to Monday the 20th of July, it’s 1ft to 2ft of short-period ESE slop, mostly with cross-onshore winds adding chop. The energy numbers hang in the teens and twenties.
No standout days here. If you’re a kiter, the afternoons with 12-15 mph winds and choppy conditions might offer something, but for a surfer? This is a long, flat spell. Forecasts can change, though.
Rusty.

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.
