The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s chew the fat on Hobson County Park.
To be straight with you, the next 16 days are a total dud. Tiny, weak, and messy from start to finish. You’re looking at swell heights from 0.2ft to about 0.7ft for almost the whole run, with periods that don’t know what they want to do – short, long, doesn’t matter, because there’s no power behind any of it. The combined swell energy is mostly under 100, with a few days in the second week creeping into the low 100s, but it’s still not enough to push a decent wave. Water temp on the first day is 70°, which is a solid 7° warmer than usual – pretty wild for this time of year.
The wind is light and mostly onshore or cross-onshore, so you’d get a bit of chop on top of the flatness. There’s no real surf to speak of for a paddle board. The only thing that looks even slightly interesting is the 17th of August, when a 1ft short-period swell shows up with a combined energy of 256 and a decent onshore breeze – that’s a kiteboarder’s session, not a surfer’s.
No standout days. No hidden gems. Just a long, flat period. It happens. Don’t sweat it – forecasts change, and it won’t stay this quiet forever.
Rusty.

Information about the Hobson County Park Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Hobson County Park provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Hobson County Park can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Hobson County Park 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 (Hobson County Park) 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 Hobson County Park 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.
