The Lowdown
Righto, let’s have a look at what’s on offer. To be honest, the outlook for the Himalayas is a bit of a slow burn. For the first couple of weeks, we’re looking at a very drawn-out period of tiny, weak surf. From Thursday the 6th of August all the way through to Wednesday the 19th of August, the waves are barely a whisper – mostly 0.6ft to 2ft with combined wave energy values that are mostly in the low double digits (23, 51, 9…). It’s clean, sure, with some nice cross-off breezes, but there’s just no power or size to get excited about. That’s a solid two-week gap where the surf is more of a paddle than a ride.
Now, things finally start to show some life from Wednesday the 19th of August. The afternoon brings a jump up to 5ft from the NE, with a period of 8 seconds and a combined energy of 407 (moderate energy). That’s a bit of a lumpy, short-period swell, but it’s a start. The real highlight, though, is on Thursday the 20th of August. The morning starts with 4ft NE swell, and the afternoon pushes it to 5ft from the same direction, with the energy dialling up to 449 (moderate energy). The winds are light and gentle from the ENE, keeping things clean. This is the best on offer – a solid, fun-sized NE swell with clean conditions. It’s not huge, but after that long flat spell, it’s a genuine treat. The break is a reef setup, consistent, and exposed to the NW, but the swell is coming from the NE, which is close to the optimum direction. It’s an advanced wave, so keep that in mind.
Friday the 21st of August looks a bit of a write-off though, with a cross-on breeze and a risk of thunderstorms, so that Thursday the 20th is your window.
The water temperature isn’t given, so I can’t comment on that.

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.
