The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the table for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it's a pretty grim stretch for Hargen. The whole 16-day window is a write-off. There's not a single moment where the conditions come together for a paddle. We're looking at a solid two weeks of nothing worth getting wet for. The swell is tiny, the wind is almost always cross or cross-on, and it's just messy. It's one of those runs where the forecast is a total blank, and that's just how it goes here sometimes. You wouldn't be missing a thing.
The first real chance of anything happens right at the very end. On the 27th of July, Monday morning, there's a bit of a pulse from the southwest. Swell hits about 3ft, period around 6 seconds, but it's cross-shore wind and the energy is still weak (50). It's a poor surf situation. The next day, Tuesday the 28th, has similar 3ft southwest swell, but again, cross-onshore winds mess it up. The energy is still low (59). It's not worth a second look.
The pattern is clear: mostly onshore or cross-shore wind and a severe lack of any decent swell. It's a classic case of the surf being a no-go. Forecasts can change, and it never stays this poor forever, but for now, the boards are staying in the van.

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.
