The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk Hargen in feet and miles per hour.
This Hargen stretch? It’s a long dry spell, my friend. Over the full 16-day forecast, every single session here is marked as poor surf conditions. For a beach/breakwater setup like this, a quiet run isn’t out of the ordinary.
Starting Saturday the 12th of September, the surf is tiny—about 1ft at best in the afternoon, with a wind blowing 19 mph from the WSW cross-onshore. The water is messy and lumpy, combined swell energy just 30. Not worth paddling out.
Sunday the 13th keeps the 2ft waves but the period is around 5 seconds, and we’ve got onshore winds in the morning. The energy stays weak between 17 and 23. By Monday and Tuesday it’s all cross-shore chop with 0.5ft to 2ft waves and combined energy barely reaching 35. Truly flat spells.
Wednesday the 16th brings some rain showers, a bit more energy around 52, but the swell is only 3 to 3ft with a short period and onshore NW winds at 16 mph. Unrideable. The rest of the first week is a rinse and repeat of small, messy surf and fresh cross-onshore breezes.
There’s a glimmer Monday the 21st when the swell hits 4ft with an 8-second period and combined energy jumps to 235—moderate energy for sure. But that onshore wind from the WNW at 22 mph wipes it out. Same deal Tuesday the 22nd: 4ft waves, energy 196, but the wind is cross or cross-onshore. Conditions are poor.
From the 23rd onward, it’s a fadeout. Waves drop under 3ft, energy sinks under 100, and even when the wind goes light or offshore (like Thursday the 24th with a clean little 1ft wave from the NNW), there’s just not enough size to do anything. It’s flat.
No standout sessions here, mate. Keep the board waxed and wait for a better week. Sometimes it’s just like that.

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.
