Table - best surf conditions forecast for Hargen over the next 16 days.
Hey, Rusty here. I'll level with you – this stretch at Hargen is a real bummer. We're looking at a proper flat spell to start, with barely a bump for the first several days. The water is at 66°, which is a massive 6° warmer than usual for this time of year – that's very unusual, so don't plan on a thick wetsuit.
Wednesday the 8th and Thursday the 9th are a total write-off. Tiny windswell, if you can call it that, with a combined energy of just 22 and 11 (weak). The wind is all cross-on or cross, making for choppy, poor surf. Don't bother.
Friday the 10th morning shows a glimmer of clean conditions with a light cross-off breeze, but the swell is a pathetic 0.7ft from the N with a period of 6 seconds. Clean, but there's just no power.
The weekend doesn't offer much. Saturday the 11th has a tiny pulse, and by Sunday the 12th we get the biggest waves of this entire outlook – a mighty 3ft from the N with a period of 4 seconds. Combined energy hits 20 (still weak), but with a fresh 19 mph cross-shore wind, it's going to be lumpy and messy.
The whole first week is a bust. From Monday the 13th right through to the end on Thursday the 23rd, it's the same story: small, weak swell (combined energy mostly in the single digits or low teens) and almost constant cross or onshore wind. A few clean moments, but the swell is barely breaking. On Wednesday afternoon the 23rd, a 2ft SW swell shows up with a 4-second period, but with a fresh 22 mph cross-shore, it's just another lumpy, poor session.
Honestly, there isn't a single standout day in this entire 16-day window. Every single forecast is poor. If you're kitesurfing, those breezy afternoons with some chop might be fun, but for a paddle surfer, this is a solid two-week break. We just have to wait and hope for a change. Forecasts can change, but right now, save your energy.
Rusty.

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