Hash Point Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here. Gonna give you the rundown for Hash Point, but don’t get your hopes up. This stretch is flat and quiet, with no real surf on offer. Let’s dig in.

From Sunday July 5 right through the first week, it’s all "poor surf conditions." Swell heights stay below 2 ft, periods are short – 5 to 10 seconds – and wave energy is low, mostly under 60 (weak). Winds are cross or cross-onshore from the WNW or WSW, nothing clean. A couple of glassy mornings, like Wednesday July 8 and Thursday July 9, but with only 1 ft to 2 ft of swell, it’s barely rideable. Not worth paddling out.

A little bump shows up Monday July 13 afternoon: 4 ft from the NW, 7-second period, energy at 121 (moderate). Still says "poor surf conditions" because it’s short-period windswell with light cross-shore wind. A bit bigger, but messy.

Tuesday July 14 afternoon brings 3 ft NW swell, same 7-second period, energy at 132 – moderate energy but quality’s not there. Winds are cross-onshore, so expect chop. This repeats through the second week: some days with swell between 2 ft and 4 ft, mostly from the NW, periods 6-9 seconds, winds never truly offshore. Energy stays moderate on the bigger days (100-186 range), but the surf stays poor.

The biggest day is Sunday July 19 afternoon: 4 ft NW swell, 7-second period, energy at 186 (moderate). Winds are light cross-onshore. It’s the biggest pulse, but not clean. For a sheltered point like Hash Point, we really need that optimum NW swell direction with offshore NE wind – not happening.

Water temp? Not in the data, so no word.

Bottom line: no real surf. Tiny waves, messy winds. The bigger pulses are short-period chop. Kite surfers might like those 12-18 mph cross-shore afternoons, but for paddle surfing, it’s a skip.

Hold tight – forecasts can change. But right now, it’s a flat spell.

Rusty.
