The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Hangers over the next couple of weeks.
Alright, straight up, this is a tough one. We’re looking at a long, dry spell with nothing worth paddling out for. The first decent bump doesn’t show up until Monday the 14th of September, and even then, it’s not exactly firing. Before that, we’ve got a solid week of nothing—tiny, weak waves and poor conditions. The wind is mostly cross or onshore, and the swell is tiny, with combined energy values barely registering (47, 36, 18...). It’s a real bummer.
The first real chance to get wet comes on Monday the 14th of September. Early morning, the wind goes glassy, and we’ve got a 4 ft swell from the ENE. The combined energy jumps to 171 (moderate) and the water is a warm 85°. It’s not epic, but it’s surfable. The swell period is a short 7 seconds, so it’s not going to have much grunt, but with glassy conditions, Hangers might offer a few clean little runners. The afternoon gets choppy again, so it’s a morning-only window.
The next standout is on Saturday the 19th of September. We’ve got a 3 ft swell from the ENE, period of 7 seconds, and glassy early winds. The combined energy is 118 (moderate). Again, it’s not a classic, but it’s clean and the wind is off. It’s a similar story to the 14th—small, short-period, but clean. The water is still warm.
Honestly, the best on offer is probably that Monday the 14th of September morning. It’s the biggest swell, with glassy wind and moderate energy. It’s not a day for the history books, but it’s the one to circle. The 19th is a similar runner-up, but it’s all a bit on the small side.
For the rest of the period, it’s mostly junk—cross-onshore or onshore wind, short-period swell, and low energy. The wave comment says it all: “poor surf conditions” for most of it. There’s a few glassy mornings with tiny waves, but nothing that’s going to get the heart pumping.
So, to sum it up: we’ve got a long wait until the 14th, and then a couple of small, clean windows. It’s not the best run, but it’s what we’ve got. Keep an eye on the forecast, because things can change.
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.
