The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – the next two weeks are looking pretty flat for the Haulover area. We’ve got a long run of tiny, weak swell and mostly onshore or cross-onshore winds. There’s no standout surf in the window, so don’t get your hopes up for anything decent.
Right now, Tuesday the 21st through Saturday the 26th, we’re seeing nothing but poor surf conditions. The swell is barely peeking above 2 ft with a period of only 4 to 5 seconds – that’s pure wind chop, no power, no shape. The wind is mostly cross-onshore from the SE or SSE at 9 to 12 mph, making it choppy and messy. The combined energy is weak, sitting between 25 and 38 (low energy). The water temp is a warm 87°, which is about 2° warmer than average – comfortable, but that’s the only good news.
From Sunday the 27th through the end of July, the swell drops to 0.7 ft. The period stretches to 8 seconds, which is better, but there’s just no size. A few windows show clean conditions with a light WSW or W breeze, like Sunday morning and Monday morning the 27th, but with 0.7 ft of swell, you’re looking at knee-high dribble at best. The energy drops to single digits – 8 or 9. It’s not worth paddling out for anything other than a float.
The first week of August is more of the same: tiny waves, weak energy, and onshore winds from the east or southeast. Morning of the 1st shows a glassy window with NW wind at 3 mph, but again, 0.7 ft swell and 9-second period means it’s flat. The combined energy is 10. That’s a long way from a surfable wave.
The standout here is not a wave, but the lack of one. The whole 16-day stretch is a quiet one. There’s nothing for beginners, nothing for experts. If you’re desperate, the cleanest water will be on the mornings with light offshore winds, like Sunday the 26th morning, Monday the 27th morning, or Friday the 31st morning, but be prepared for a knee-high dribble. Don’t expect a proper wave.
Hang in there, but this one’s a write-off.

Information about the Haulover Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Haulover provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Haulover can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Haulover 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 (Haulover) 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 Haulover 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.
