The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – the outlook for the next couple of weeks is a real tough one. We’ve got a long, quiet period ahead with only a tiny window of anything rideable, and even that’s pretty ordinary. Let’s break it down.
We’re looking at a massive gap with no real surf on offer. From now right through until the morning of Friday the 18th of September, it’s pretty much a write-off. The energy is weak, winds are messy, and the swell is tiny. The bigger days in that stretch, like Wednesday the 9th, have some moderate energy (combined energy of 226) but the cross-onshore winds and lumpy conditions wreck it. Not worth paddling out for.
The one and only time we see a glimmer of hope is on Friday morning, the 18th of September. There’s a bit of a pulse coming through at Hargen, a beach/breakwater setup. We’ll have a 4ft swell out of the west, with a period of 6 seconds. That’s a short-period windswell, so it’s not going to be any kind of classic groundswell, but the wind will be a gentle cross-offshore breeze from the ENE, making the surface clean. The combined energy is moderate (104). It’s surfable, but very ordinary. The water temperature is about average for this time of year.
If you’re desperate for a paddle, that Friday morning is your only shot. But honestly, with such a short period and a beach break, it’s likely to be a bit soft and disorganised. For the rest of the 16 days, it’s flat, clean, and empty. A blank run like this is pretty normal for the area when the pattern stalls.
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.
