The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk about the Himalayas. This is a tricky one. The whole 16-day window is a grim one for this exposed reef. We’ve got a consistent, exposed reef that needs a solid NW groundswell to really fire, but the charts are showing pretty much nothing for the next two and a half weeks.
Right now, on the 27th of July, we’re looking at a messy 5 ft NE windswell with a short 7-second period. The wind is a nasty cross-shore from the NE at 15 mph, putting a cross-chop on the surface. Water temp is 79°, which is dead average for this time of year. The combined wave energy is weak at 281. This is just poor, unsurfable conditions.
That theme continues straight through the end of July and the first week of August. The swell drops right off, mostly below 2 ft, and the wind stays cross-off from the ENE, keeping it clean, but with virtually no waves to ride. Wave energy readings are down in the single digits and low teens. There’s a solid 10-day stretch here with absolutely nothing on offer – just flat, clean water.
Now, there is one faint glimmer of hope way out on the 9th of August. Sunday morning shows a jump in swell to 6 ft from the NE, with a moderate 9-second period. The combined energy jumps up to 468, which is moderate. The wind is a clean cross-off from the E at 12 mph. This is a marginal call – the file flags it as questionable for tides or conditions, but it’s the only pulse of size in the whole outlook.
Following that, the 10th of August (Monday afternoon) shows a similar bump: 4 ft from the NE with 9-second period and a combined energy of 254. Again, light cross-off wind. This one gets a rating of "expect good surf conditions," but it’s still a small, short-period swell on a reef that really wants bigger, longer-period groundswell from the NW to make it properly good.
If you’re an advanced surfer and you’re desperate, the morning of the 9th of August and the afternoon of the 10th are the only windows with any real size. But don't hold your breath. This looks more like a scenic mountain view than a surf destination in this period.

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.
