The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what’s on the table for the Himalayas over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, mate, this is a tough run. The whole sixteen-day window is looking flat and disappointing. We’ve got a solid stretch of clean conditions, but without any real push of swell to work with. The first recommendation comes on Tuesday the 28th of July, but it's not one to get excited about. Through to around the 1st of August, the combined swell energy numbers are mostly in the weak range, often under 100, with tiny waves and short periods. After that, things stay low and slow, with a slight uptick in energy towards the end of the first week of August, but even then, we’re talking about weak energy in the 60 to 108 range and heights barely reaching 2 ft. There’s a long gap here with absolutely no decent surf on offer.
If you’re absolutely desperate for a paddle, the afternoon of Wednesday the 29th of July has a 5 ft swell from the NE, but with a short period of 9 seconds, light cross-onshore wind, and a marginal forecast, it’s not going to be pretty. The water temperature is sitting at 79°, which is pretty much spot on average for the time of year.
The only other blip worth a mention is the afternoon of Friday the 7th of August, where the combined swell energy finally creeps into moderate territory at 108, with a 1 ft swell from the W and a period of 14 seconds. That’s a longer-period groundswell, so it might offer some shape, but it’s tiny. The wind stays cross-off from the ENE at 16 mph, which keeps it clean, but honestly, there’s just not enough size to surf.
For a reef break that’s exposed to NW swell, this is a brutal outlook. There’s nothing here for beginners, and not even enough for experienced surfers to bother with. The consistent clean conditions make this setup look more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing for most of the period.
Rusty, signing off.

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.
