The Lowdown
IMPERIAL
Alright, mate, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for the next couple of weeks.
Well, I gotta be straight with you – the next 16 days are a bit of a mixed bag, and honestly, it’s gonna be a grind for most of it. The first few days are a write-off, so don’t even bother paddling out until we get into the middle of next week. The wind is just howling from the east-northeast, making a mess of things. The water temp is sitting at a balmy 81°, which is about average for this time of year, so at least you won’t need a wetsuit.
After a pretty grim start, things start to look a little more promising come Tuesday, the 4th of August. Haubush (a reef break) is the only game in town, and it’s your best bet for the whole window. The swell direction is from the east, and the combined energy is moderate (462). The real standout is the wind. On Tuesday afternoon, it goes completely glassy – a light northeasterly at 3 mph. That’s a dream for clean conditions. The swell is a modest 4 ft, so it’s not going to be pumping, but it’ll be smooth and rideable. Just keep in mind, this spot can get crowded, so get out there early if you can.
The following day, Wednesday the 5th, has a small window of opportunity in the afternoon. The wind shifts to a light cross-off, making for clean conditions again, with a 3 ft swell from the east-northeast at 9 seconds. Not a standout, but a nice little session if you’re desperate.
After that, we hit a long, flat spell. The swell drops right off, and the wind goes back to being rubbish. There’s a long period groundswell (21 seconds) that shows up on the 7th, but it's tiny (1 ft) and completely blown out. It’s just not worth it.
The second week offers a glimmer of hope. On the 10th and 11th, we see a long-period, medium-energy swell from the south-southwest (16 seconds, combined energy 540-788), but the wind is still cross-shore and messy, keeping those scores low. The biggest energy spike comes on the 12th of August, with a solid 4-5 ft swell from the south, packing a punch (combined energy 1238-1441). That’s strong wave energy. But the wind is still cross-shore or cross-onshore, so it’s going to be lumpy and choppy. Not a clean one, I’m afraid.
The very last day worth mentioning is the 15th of August. A tiny 2 ft swell from the south, but the wind goes glassy again in the afternoon. If you just want to bob around on a longboard in perfect conditions, that’s your moment.
Overall, the only true standout is that glassy Tuesday afternoon on the 4th. Everything else is a bit of a hard slog. The forecast for the second week is promising in terms of swell size, but the wind is the real letdown. It’s a waiting game, lads.
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.
Haubush is 2 km (1 miles) from 'Ewa Beach. If you plan a vacation in Oahu, look for hotels and other accommodation in 'Ewa Beach. 'Ewa Beach has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
