The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the 16-day window. Gotta be straight with you – for the first week or so, it’s a bit of a struggle. The wind’s mostly cross-shore and the waves are messy, so we’re waiting for a proper window. The real standout is a monster day about a week away, but it’s for the experienced crew only.

The first few days, from Monday the 10th through to Friday the 14th of August, are a real write-off. We’ve got swell from the ENE and SSW, but the wind is a fresh cross-shore breeze, 15 to 19 mph, creating a lumpy cross-chop. The combined wave energy is moderate, around 468 to 842, but the surf quality is poor. It’s a frustrating start, with nothing to get excited about.

Things start to look a little more interesting on Saturday the 15th of August. The swell picks up a bit, with the morning showing 7 ft from the East, and the wind switches to a cross-offshore from the NE, making it clean. The combined energy climbs to 948. By the afternoon, the swell is 7 ft from the East with a period of 11 seconds, and the energy is up to 1369. It’s still marginal, but the clean conditions are a step up. Keep an eye on it.

Now, here’s the one you’ve been waiting for. Sunday the 16th of August is the real deal at Haubush. This is a reef break, fairly consistent, and it’s exposed to the swell. The morning brings a serious 12 ft swell from the ENE, with a period of 13 seconds. The wind is a moderate offshore breeze from the NNW at 12 mph, and the combined energy is a massive 7095 – that’s strong to very strong wave energy. The reports call it exceptional, but only for expert surfers. This is a big, powerful groundswell, and with that long period, it’s going to be a proper paddle out. The afternoon stays big at 13 ft from the ENE, period of 12 seconds, with a clean cross-offshore wind. This is the standout session. Just keep in mind, this is a reef break, so know your limits. Also, the water temperature is about average for the time of year, so no surprises there.

After that peak, the surf drops off quickly. Monday the 17th of August turns ugly with onshore winds and a messy 12 ft swell from the East. The rest of the week into the 24th and 25th sees dropping swell, mostly 4 ft to 6 ft, but the wind stays cross-shore or cross-on, and the energy is moderate. The quality is poor to marginal at best. It’s a long wait for the next real pulse.

So, to sum it up: the first week is a bust. The one true standout is Sunday, the 16th of August, for expert surfers only. After that, we’re back to waiting for the next one. The forecast can change, but for now, that’s the story.

Rusty.

Information about the Haubush Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Haubush provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Haubush can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Haubush 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 (Haubush) 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 Haubush 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.
