The Lowdown
Alright, mates, Rusty here. Let’s call it like it is – this forecast for the Himalayas is a tough one. We’ve got a long, flat stretch ahead with not much to get the heart pumping.
The whole run starts with a massive gap. From Sunday the 9th of August all the way through to the afternoon of Thursday the 20th of August, it’s almost completely flat. The water’s sitting right around normal for the season at 27°, but the energy readings are pathetic, barely breaking 92 (weak energy) with little to no swell height. The wind is mostly cross-off from the ENE, but that doesn’t matter when there’s no wave to ride. It’s just a dead period.
Then, finally, a glimmer. The first real standout hits on the afternoon of Thursday the 20th of August. We get a little 2ft swell pushing in from the SW with a very long 18-second period. The energy jumps to a moderate 180, and with a light ENE cross-off breeze, it should be clean. The direction isn’t perfect – the spot likes it from the NW – but it’s rideable and it’s the first real chance in nearly two weeks. That 18-second period means it’s a proper groundswell, so look for it to have some push, even if it might feel a bit straight-running.
Friday morning the 21st of August offers a repeat – similar 2ft, clean, and 156 energy. A small but welcome window. After that, it’s right back into the quiet life. The rest of the forecast through the 24th is just more tiny waves and building onshore winds. Nothing else worth mentioning.
All in all, mark your calendar for the 20th afternoon and 21st morning. It’s not pumping, but it’s the only game in town.
Keep the wax handy,
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.
