The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. We've got a look at the Himalayas for the next 16 days, and I gotta be straight with you – it’s a tough stretch. We’re starting on Friday, August 14th, and honestly, there’s no decent surf to speak of for the entire run. This is a blank run, plain and simple.
From Friday the 14th all the way through to Saturday the 29th of August, we're looking at a real dry spell. This isn't exactly unusual for this setup when it's out of sorts, but it doesn't make it any easier to swallow.
The main issue is the swell. We're consistently seeing tiny waves, mostly around 0.7ft to 2ft across the whole period, with a few weak pulses barely hitting 3ft. The combined swell energy rarely gets its act together. Most days it’s floundering in the low teens and twenties, with the highest reading being a weak 92 on Wednesday the 19th. That’s negligible, weak energy across the board. The wind stays cross-off from the ENE or E, which would usually be clean, but with zero power behind it, it’s just a chop on flat water. You’d be sitting on your board doing nothing.
Even around Wednesday the 19th, when we get a brief uptick to 3ft from the NE with a short 7-second period, the energy is still rubbish (92) and the conditions are marked as poor.
I can't find a single standout moment here. There's nothing to recommend. With swell this small and the energy this low, the conditions are just poor for any kind of paddle surfing. Honestly, if you had a big kite, you might get a skid on, but for us wave riders, it's a full-on bust.
Keep the chin up, forecasts can change, but for now, it’s a flat spell.
Rusty.

Information about the Himalayas Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Himalayas provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Himalayas can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Himalayas 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 (Himalayas) 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 Himalayas 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.
Himalayas is 14 km (9 miles) from Wahiawa. If you plan a vacation in Oahu, look for hotels and other accommodation in Wahiawa. Wahiawa has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
