Updates in hr min s Forecast update imminent
Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – the next couple of weeks are looking pretty grim for a proper paddle. Let's break it down.
We're looking at the Hargen (beach/breakwater) zone, and honestly, the surf forecast is a tough one. Starting from Saturday, July 4th, the swell is tiny and weak, with a combined energy of just 49. That WNW swell at 3ft is from a short-period windswell, and with a stiff 16 mph onshore wind, it's just messy. The water temp is way warmer than usual for this time of year at 67°, but that’s about the only good news.
Sunday the 5th and Monday the 6th are more of the same – small, onshore, and ugly. The swell stays under 3ft with weak energy (under 69), and winds are howling from the west, keeping conditions blown out. It's a real bummer.
The rest of the first week into the second week doesn't get any better. We see small swells with periods under 8 seconds and the combined energy drops below 30. From Wednesday the 8th onward, the swell completely dies, with heights bouncing between flat and 2ft. Even though we get some clean offshore winds from the east on the 9th and 10th, there's just no wave energy – energy values of 11, then 3, then zero. That's just a lake out there.
There's a long gap with no surf to speak of. From around July 8th all the way through to July 19th, the best we see is a pathetic 2ft on the 8th and a tiny 2ft on the 13th. The energy is so low (under 12 for almost all of it) that it's barely a ripple. For almost two weeks, you're looking at flat, clean, but completely unsurfable conditions. You could probably kite-surf it if you're really keen, but for a paddle surfer, it's a solid stretch of nothing.
To be honest, if you're chasing waves in Hargen over this forecast period, you're out of luck. There is no standout session, no hidden gem. The entire 16-day window is a write-off for surf. Forecasts can change, but for now, leave the boards in the garage.
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.
