The Lowdown

G’day, Rusty here, and I’ve been staring at the charts for your area, and I gotta be straight with you – it’s a long, tough wait for anything decent. The first break worth paddling out at is Haubush, a reef set-up that’s fairly consistent and exposed to the swell, but it's not going to be pretty for a while.

Right now, water temp is sitting at 80°, which is about what you’d expect for this time of year – nothing wild there.

The first few days are a write-off. From Tuesday 21 July right through to Friday 24 July, the ocean is in a foul mood. Swell is small, around 2ft to 3ft, coming from the S or SSW, with a cross-wind that’s got some chop on it. The combined swell energy is moderate (484 to 1150) but it’s all messy and poor. You’d be wasting your time.

Saturday 25 July and Sunday 26 July are a bit better, but still marginal. Swell nudges up to 3ft to 4ft, swinging around to the E, but that cross-wind is still there, fresh and lumpy. Energy picks up (1025 to 1493) but the surf conditions are just not clean. It’s frustrating.

Now, Monday 27 July and Tuesday 28 July – we’re getting somewhere. Swell builds to 5ft–6ft from the E and ENE, with periods around 13–14 seconds, so it’s got some push. The combined energy is strong (1089 to 1253). But again, that cross-wind is messing with the surface. It’s still marginal, but if you’re desperate, Tuesday 28 July afternoon might offer a few lumpy ones.

The standout window is Wednesday 29 July. That’s the one. Morning sees 6ft from the ENE, period of 12 seconds, and the combined energy is strong (1132). Then by afternoon, the wind switches to a light cross-offshore from the NE at only 9 mph, and the wave comment says it’s excellent for experienced surfers. The swell direction (ENE) is a good match for Haubush’s optimum (SSE, but this ENE groundswell will wrap in nicely). That afternoon session is your best bet – clean, manageable, and with some real power. Just be aware, with periods around 12 seconds, it’s a groundswell and will have some longer gaps between sets, but the reef will handle it well. Crowds are likely at Haubush, so get there early.

Thursday 30 July has a bit of leftover swell (4ft–5ft, ENE, 10 seconds) but the wind turns onshore or cross-onshore, so it’s messy again. Then from Friday 31 July through to Sunday 2 August, it drops right off – small, weak, and poor. The combined energy falls to 292–489, and it’s just not worth it.

The second week, from Monday 3 August onward, shows some small pulses but nothing to write home about. Swell holds around 3ft–5ft from the E or ENE, with periods of 8–16 seconds, but the wind stays cross or cross-onshore, and the surf is either poor or marginal. There’s a slim chance on Wednesday 5 August morning with 5ft from the ENE, but it’s still lumpy.

So, to sum it up: the only standout is Wednesday 29 July afternoon at Haubush. That’s your moment. The rest of the 16-day window is a struggle. If you’re a kite surfer, the consistent cross-winds and moderate swell might be more your thing, but for paddle surfing, it’s a tough stretch.

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.
