Hazuk Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here, and I gotta be straight with ya – it’s been a tough stretch of days at Hazuk. This is a beach and reef setup, exposed to the NW, and we've had a real dry spell. If you’re looking for a paddle, you’ve been waiting, and honestly, you’ll be waiting a bit longer. The first surf that’s even worth mentioning doesn't show up until Wednesday, September 16th.

Before that? Friday the 11th through Tuesday the 15th is a dead zone. Tiny, weak swell with combined energy barely hitting double digits (15 at best) and a rubbish wind direction that's just mucking it all up. Sure, you get some glassy mornings, but with waves around 1ft to 2ft and poor surf conditions, it’s more of a lake than a line-up. Not worth wetting the wetsuit for.

Alright, so Wednesday morning, September 16th, we finally see a pulse. A new WNW swell pushes in at 3ft with a period of 7 seconds, combined energy gets up to 88 – that’s still weak energy, but it’s a start. The real beauty here is the wind: glassy from the WNW. The morning will produce surfable waves, but it’s very ordinary conditions. Don't expect barrels. The afternoon goes to crap as the NW wind swings cross-onshore at 12 mph and chops it all up.

Thursday morning, September 17th, is a carbon copy – 3ft, glassy, WNW wind. That early session is your only real window before it gets messy again. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing wild to report there.

Friday morning, September 18th, is the first real step up. Swell builds to 4ft from the NW with a period of 7 seconds. This is when the combined energy finally cracks triple digits (126), meaning moderate wave energy. The morning wind is glassy from the WNW again, so you’ll have clean conditions with a bit more push. This is the best on offer in the whole outlook. It’s still small enough for beginners, but there’s just enough juice for a fun little ride on a log or a fish. The afternoon goes cross-onshore again and falls apart.

After that, the swell backs right off. Saturday the 19th drops back to 2ft, and then from Sunday the 20th all the way through Tuesday the 23rd, it’s back to tiny, weak, and mostly cross-onshore junk. Wednesday morning the 23rd tease a bit of a bump (2ft, 8-second period, glassy), but the combined energy is only 73 – weak. Then Thursday the 24th morning is similar with 2ft, but again, it’s all over by lunch.

The long-range stuff from September 25th and 26th is a non-event. Small, weak, and poor. Honestly, if there’s any decent wind and it gets choppy, this open beach setup might look more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer.

Bottom line: if you’ve got a flexible schedule, hit the glassy morning windows on Wednesday the 16th or Thursday the 17th for a knee-to-waist high jog. For a slightly better wave, the standout is Friday morning, September 18th at Hazuk. That’s your best bet – 4ft from the WNW, glassy, clean. Don’t sleep in.

Rusty.
