The Lowdown
Yo, it's Rusty. Alright, let's be straight with you – looking at the whole 16-day window for Haulover, it's a pretty grim stretch for surf. The finder is showing zero recommendations, and honestly, the guidance file backs that up. This spot is rated as "inconsistent" to begin with, so a blank run like this isn't totally out of the blue for the area. We're looking at a long dry spell.
From now, starting Sunday the 26th of July, right through to Monday the 10th of August, there's just nothing to get excited about. The swell is tiny, mostly hovering around 0.7 ft to 3 ft, with periods that are either short (3-4 seconds) or a bit longer (8-10 seconds). The combined wave energy is weak, only reaching into the double digits (like 13, 21, 55) and even the highest we see is a weak 55. The wind, while occasionally glassy on the Monday morning (27th) or offering a light offshore on the 30th and 31st, is mostly cross, cross-off, or cross-on, which just chops up what little bump there is.
The water temp is sitting at 87°, which is about normal for the time of year with only a slight anomaly of 1°.
Don't bother paddling out for this. The setup at Haulover is a beach/pier/jetty, and with these tiny, weak swells and messy wind, it's a complete write-off for us. If the wind picks up like it does on the 29th (19 mph from the SW), it might look more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. Keep the board in the car and wait for a proper forecast.
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.
