The Lowdown
Rusty here again, with the same outlook in the scale you landlubbers use for your cars. We're looking at a pretty grim couple of weeks out at Hargen.
The first week is a total wash-out. Starting Thursday the 10th, there's a mix of tiny wave heights and winds that just won't let up. It's mostly cross-shore or onshore, which makes it a messy, unrideable mess for a paddler. The water's a little warmer than normal for the season, running at 66°F.
We get a little bump in energy around Thursday the 17th and Friday the 18th, but the combined energy is still only in the weak-to-moderate range, and the wind stays in the cross-on or onshore quadrant. For a beach and breakwater setup, you need clean air, and we ain't getting it. The whole thing is more interesting for a kite than a surfboard for most of this run.
Your only real chance, and I'm using that word lightly, comes on Friday the 25th of September. The morning shows a cross-off breeze with a 4ft swell from the west. The combined energy finally climbs to 146, which is a moderate push. The swell period is a short 7 seconds, so the lines will be weak, but with the wind blowing offshore, a few of the more experienced surfers might buy a wave or two. It’s the only thing even close to a session in this entire 16-day window.
For the rest, there's nothing to write home about. The final week is dead with strong winds and near flat conditions. It’s a classic flat spell for the area. 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.
