Huzzawouie (Huzzas) Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for Huzzawouie (Huzzas). This is a reef setup, fairly consistent, and it's exposed to the swell. The optimum direction is from the west, so we're looking for that.

The forecast kicks off with a bit of a dud. Thursday the 3rd and Friday the 4th are a write-off. Strong, onshore winds are chewing up a solid 12ft to 16ft SW swell, making for poor conditions. The combined wave energy is massive (5726 to 9375), but it's all a messy, blown-out chop. Not worth paddling out for.

Saturday the 5th ain't much better. The morning is a no-go, but the afternoon sees a shift to a cross-offshore wind with a 15ft WSW swell. The period drops to 9 seconds, which is short and weak, and the energy is still high (3543), but it'll be clean. The score is pretty low though, so keep expectations in check.

Now, Sunday the 6th is where we start to get a glimpse of something good. We've got a 13ft SW groundswell with a 13-second period, and the wind swings offshore from the SSE. The energy is impressive (8585), and the forecast is calling it clean. This is a solid option for experienced surfers, as anything over 8ft is for experts only. Monday the 7th keeps the goodness going with a smaller but cleaner 12ft SW swell, and the period stretches out to a very long 16 seconds. That's proper groundswell energy (6731), and with light offshore winds, the morning session looks exceptional for those who know what they're doing. Tuesday the 8th is a carbon copy, with a 12ft WSW swell and the same 16-second period, glassy conditions, and light offshore breezes. This stretch from Sunday the 6th through Tuesday the 8th is the standout run. The wind is clean, the swell is powerful, and the direction is spot on.

Things get a bit messy again from Wednesday the 9th through Friday the 11th. The swell sticks around at 10ft, but the wind turns onshore or cross-shore, and the conditions get lumpy and poor. The combined energy is still high, but the quality drops right off.

Then we get a second pulse. Saturday the 12th and Sunday the 13th are looking excellent. The swell is 13ft to 15ft from the WSW, the period is a long 15-16 seconds, and the wind is light and cross-offshore. The energy is huge (8769 to 9487), and the forecast for Sunday afternoon is calling for exceptional conditions. This is another clear standout for the experts. Monday the 14th is a bit smaller at 12ft, but glassy conditions in the morning make it a great option for the experienced crew.

That's it for the real highlights. The rest of the 16-day window, from Tuesday the 15th through to Friday the 18th, is a mix of onshore winds, lumpy conditions, and poor surf. The swell will be there, but the wind will ruin it.

Overall, the best bet is Sunday the 6th through Tuesday the 8th, and then again on Saturday the 12th and Sunday the 13th. Lock in those days for the cleanest, most powerful waves. The rest of the time, you're fighting the wind.

Rusty.
