Hazuk Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you — the next couple of weeks are looking pretty bleak for a proper paddle. Let’s break it down.

We’re looking at Hazuk, a beach and reef setup, and it’s exposed to the NW. The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing to write home about. The first half of the outlook is a write-off, with poor surf conditions and onshore or cross-onshore winds messing up the tiny, weak swell. Tuesday morning the 21st of July has a tiny 1 ft swell from the NW with a short period of 6 seconds, and a light cross-on breeze. The combined energy is a weak 8. It’s not happening.

Wednesday and Thursday the 22nd and 23rd are more of the same — small, weak, and choppy. By Friday the 24th, we’re still stuck with poor surf and a 3 ft swell. The wind is onshore in the afternoons, so forget it.

Now, Saturday the 25th of July sees a bit of a bump — the swell pushes up to 4 ft from the NW, period 8 seconds, and the combined energy jumps to 129 (moderate). But the wind is cross-on from the SSW in the morning, so it’s not clean. Still a no-go.

Sunday the 26th drops back down to 2 ft with onshore wind. The whole first week is a dud.

Finally, on Monday morning the 27th of July, we get a glimmer. The wind goes glassy at 0 km/h, and there’s a 3 ft swell from the WNW with an 8-second period. The combined energy is 93 (weak) and it’s only rated as surfable but very ordinary. Still, glassy conditions are a major positive. It’s the only real window in the first week for a small, clean wave, but it’s tiny.

The rest of the week into the start of August is more of the same — small, weak, and choppy. The best of the whole 16-day run is actually Saturday morning, the 1st of August. The wind goes glassy again, with a 3 ft swell from the WNW, period 8 seconds, and combined energy of 128 (moderate). It’s still only rated as surfable but very ordinary, but with glassy conditions, this is your best shot. It’s a small, clean wave at Hazuk.

After that, it fades back into weak, wind-affected rubbish for the rest of the second week. The swell is tiny, the periods are short, and the wind is mostly cross-on or onshore. There’s a big gap of days with no real recommendations. The spot is fairly consistent, but the quality just isn’t there.

If you’re desperate, the 27th of July morning and the 1st of August morning are your only real chances. But honestly, with the small size and weak energy, it might be more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer, especially on the beachier sections.
