The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, swapping to feet and Fahrenheit.
Gotta be honest, this 16-day stretch is as flat as a parking lot. From July 20th all the way through August 4th, there’s no real surf to speak of. It’s a long, empty gap with nothing worth paddling out for.
The only spot we’ve got is Haulover, a beach/pier/jetty that’s inconsistent and beginner-friendly. But the swell is pathetic – wave heights are just 0.7ft to 3ft, coming from the SSE or SE with periods of 4 to 8 seconds. That’s short-period, weak windswell. The combined energy is tiny, reading between 6 and 41 (that’s weak to very weak). No power behind it.
Wind is a buzzkill too. Most days it’s a moderate cross-shore or cross-onshore breeze, making the surface choppy and messy. A few late July mornings look clean with a cross-offshore wind, but with only 0.7ft of swell, it’s glassy and flat. The water temp isn’t in the data, so I can’t say if it’s warm or cold.
With no real swell, poor quality, and those winds, this setup is more for kite surfers than paddle surfers. A blank run like this is pretty normal for the area. Forecasts can change, but for now, leave the board at home.
Rusty.

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.
