The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the next couple of weeks. To be straight with you, it’s a tough stretch ahead. We’ve got a lot of days with messy cross-shore wind and lumpy conditions that just aren’t going to deliver the goods. The swell energy is moderate to strong at times, but it’s being wasted. Gonna have to be patient and pick your moment.
The one spot we’ve got to work with is Haubush. It’s a reef break, fairly consistent but it can get crowded. The water temp is about average for the time of year, so nothing unusual there.
Let’s start from Thursday, 30 July. The morning shows a small 3ft S swell, but it’s let down by a moderate cross breeze. The energy’s there – 600 (moderate wave energy) – but it’s just messy.
Friday, 31 July, into the weekend gets worse. Swell builds to 7ft by Saturday morning, with energy jumping up to 1086 (strong wave energy), but the wind is howling from the ENE at 28 mph. That’s a strong breeze creating lumpy, messy surf. Sunday and Monday keep the pattern of moderate to strong cross-shore wind. With these beach setup conditions, honestly, it looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
Now, after nearly a week of poor conditions, we finally see a glimmer on Tuesday, 4 August. The morning is still marginal, but by Tuesday afternoon the wind drops to glassy – that’s a major positive. You’ve got a 4ft ENE groundswell with a period of 11 seconds, and energy of 445 (moderate wave energy). That long period will give clean, well-shaped waves at the reef. This is your standout session for the whole outlook, and it’s still a week away, so keep an eye on it as it gets closer.
After that brief window, it’s back to poor surf for the rest of the run into mid-August. The wind turns onshore again, and the swell stays small or messy. There’s a long gap from Wednesday, 5 August all the way through to the end of the forecast with no real recommendations. We do see a few marginal mornings on 10 and 12 August with some SSW swell, but the conditions are still cross-shore and choppy. Not worth getting too excited about.
So, to sum it up: the one true standout is Tuesday afternoon, 4 August at Haubush. Glassy conditions, a clean 4ft swell from the ENE. That’s your best bet. Everything else is a write-off until the forecasts change.
Stay tuned, and don’t put your boards away just yet.
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.
