Hazuk Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this 16-day window for the Hazuk area is a tough one. We’re looking at a long stretch of small, weak, and messy surf, with only a couple of windows that might get you wet. It’s not a total write-off, but you’ll need to be patient and pick your moments.

The whole forecast is dominated by tiny swell. For the first week and a half, from now through to the end of August, the waves are struggling to hit even 3ft, with periods hanging around 5-7 seconds. That’s short-period, weak windswell, not the kind of energy that builds a proper wave. The combined energy readings are mostly in the teens and twenties – really anemic stuff (18, 19, 23). The wind is mostly cross-onshore, chopping up what little shape there is. You’ll see a few glassy mornings, like on Monday the 24th and Tuesday the 25th, but the swell is so tiny (1ft to 2ft) that it’s barely a ripple. Even the glassy conditions can’t save that.

The first real standout in this entire outlook is Sunday, 30th August. The morning looks like the best bet for a surf. The wind goes dead calm – glassy as a mirror. The swell pushes up to 2ft from the NW, with a period of 8 seconds, giving the combined energy a modest boost to 60. It’s still small, but it’s the cleanest, most surfable it’s going to get. The water temperature is a touch warmer than normal at 86°F, so it’s a proper tropical bath. Hazuk is a beach and reef setup, and with that NW swell, it might just offer a few fun, weak little waves for a beginner. Don’t expect anything firing, but it’s the only real chance for a paddle in decent conditions.

After that, we slip back into the doldrums. The first week of September is a dead zone of tiny, weak surf (1ft to 2ft) and messy cross-onshore winds. The combined energy drops to single digits at times (5, 8). It’s basically a flat spell.

Then, about a week and a half away, around Saturday, 5th and Sunday, 6th September, we see a modest bump. The swell height lifts to 3ft to 4ft from the WNW, and the period stretches to 8 seconds. The combined energy climbs into the three-digit zone (108, 120, 135), which is moderate energy. That’s the most size we’ll see. But the problem is the wind. It’s cross-onshore, meaning the waves will be lumpy and choppy. The morning of Monday, 7th September, then offers a brief moment of calm with glassy conditions and a 3ft NW swell, with a solid 131 combined energy. That’s your second best bet – a clean, if not perfect, wave at the end of the run.

Overall, keep your expectations low. The consistent theme is poor surf quality. The best windows are the glassy mornings of Sunday 30th August and Monday 7th September. The rest of the time, it’s a flat, choppy mess. If you’re desperate, those two mornings are your only real shot.

Rusty.
