The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here, switching to feet and miles for the imperial crew.

Let’s be real, the next two weeks are mostly a bust. There’s a big gap of flatness for about 12 days before we see any real kick.

The only session that’s really worth talking about is the Saturday afternoon, August 8th at Hangers. The swell pushes up to 3 feet from the east, with a combined energy reading of 142 – that’s a moderate pulse. The period is only 9 seconds, so it’s a bit of a short-period windswell, not a clean groundswell, but it’s the biggest we’ve got. Wind is from the NNE at 12 mph, which is a cross-shore, so expect some chop. The water temp is about normal for this time of year.

The morning of the 8th is much smaller, only 2 feet from the east with a 5-second period and a combined energy of just 26 – weak stuff. Sunday the 9th morning has some cleaner conditions with a SSW wind at 9 mph blowing offshore, but the swell is only 2 feet with an 8-second period. Small.

From July 27th through August 7th, the surf is tiny. Heights are mostly 0.6 feet to 1 feet, periods are short, and the combined energy barely gets above 20. There are a few clean mornings, like the 29th and 30th of July, but there’s no swell to ride. It’s a flat spell.

If you’re itching to get wet, the Saturday afternoon of August 8th at Hangers is your only real shot. Otherwise, it’s a long wait.

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.

Hangers is 15 km (9 miles) from Melbourne. If you plan a vacation in North Florida, look for hotels and other accommodation in Melbourne. Melbourne has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
