The Lowdown
Alright, let's talk waves. Lookin' at the whole run, it's a slow starter, no doubt. For the next week or so, it's mostly cross-shore winds and lumpy junk. A real dry spell until things finally wake up.
The one that's got me stoked is the afternoon of Monday, September 7th at Haubush. This reef break finally gets its act together. We're talking a clean 4ft swell from the SSW with a very long 16-second period – that's proper groundswell, with shape and power. The wind goes glassy, so the surface will be like a mirror. The energy is pumping hard at 1274. This is prime for experienced surfers. Just know that crowds are a regular thing here, so you won't be alone.
The next best shot is the afternoon of Tuesday, September 8th at the same spot. The swell holds at 4ft from the SSW, with a long 15-second period. The wind goes light cross-offshore, keeping things clean. The energy is still strong at 790. A very solid option, but Monday afternoon is the one to circle.
Earlier on the 7th, it's marginal with a light cross-onshore breeze and a solid 1002 energy reading, but the magic happens when the wind flips to glass. A few other days are just barely worth a look, like the 3rd and 4th, but with cross-shore winds and short-period chop, you'd be wasting your time.
The one to chase: Monday afternoon, September 7th at Haubush. Glassy, 4ft of long-period SSW groundswell, and excellent quality for those who know what they're doing. That's the call.

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.
