The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s cooking for the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – this is a tough stretch. The opening days are pretty grim with a lot of cross-shore wind and lumpy, messy conditions. The one window that actually looks worth paddling out for is a short one on the morning of Tuesday, 28 July. That’s the standout.
Tuesday morning, 28 July at Haubush (reef) is where it’s at. The combined swell energy is pumping at a solid 1276 (moderate wave energy), and we’ve got a 6 ft swell pushing in from the east with a 12-second period – that’s some proper groundswell energy. The wind is a light cross-offshore from the NE at 9 mph, keeping things clean. This is a reef setup, so that long period east swell should wrap in nicely. It’s a little on the bigger side, so more for the experienced crew. Crowds are often here, so don’t expect to have it to yourself. The water temp is sitting at 80°F with a 0.7°F anomaly, so pretty much average for this time of year.
Now, after that Tuesday morning window, it all goes downhill fast. The wind cranks up from the ENE, and through the rest of that week and into the first week of August, we’re looking at a solid stretch of poor conditions. The cross-shore wind gets strong, the swell gets messy, and the wave quality is just not there. There’s a gap of several days with no real recommendations.
Tuesday morning, 4 August comes back with a marginal look – a 5 ft swell from the ENE with a long 12-second period, but the wind is still cross-shore at 12 mph, so it’s not clean. The combined energy is 661 (moderate), but the cross-chop will be a problem. Not a day to get excited about.
The rest of the forecast into the second week stays pretty poor. Consistent ENE cross-shore winds, and the wave heights bounce around but the quality never comes together. Even the bigger swells, like the 8 ft on Saturday morning, 1 August, are blown out by strong cross-shore winds. That setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing, if you ask me.
Honestly, the only real shot you’ve got in this whole 16-day window is that Tuesday morning, 28 July. Everything else is a write-off. It’s a tough run, but forecasts can change, so keep your eyes peeled.
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.
