The Lowdown
Alright, this is a tough one to call. I’m looking at the whole 16-day window for Waiehu beach park, and honestly, there’s not a single session where I’d tell you to grab your board with any real enthusiasm. The whole run is a bust. From Thursday the 30th of July, right through until Friday the 14th of August, every single forecast is rated as poor surf conditions. That’s a solid two-week gap with no real recommendations.
The main issue is that persistent cross-onshore wind. It’s blowing from the ENE or E at 9 to 16 mph for most of the period, keeping the surface chopped up and messy. The swell is there, but it’s not working for us. We see a bump in the combined energy mid-week, hitting 865 (moderate wave energy) on the 1st of August with a 7ft swell from the ENE, but with that short 8-second period and the wind ruining it, it’s just a washing machine. That setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
The water temperature is sitting at 80°F with a tiny anomaly of 0.4°F, so it’s about average for the time of year, which is nice if you’re just floating around, but that’s about the only positive.
There is one morning that teases us. On Tuesday the 4th of August, the swell period stretches to 11 seconds, giving a 5ft ENE swell with a combined energy of 582 (moderate). The wind is a lighter 6 mph from the ENE, still cross-on, but it’s a light breeze with just small wind ripples. The guidance calls it “marginal” and gives it a score of 1 out of 10. That’s the best we get, and it’s still not good. The long period (11 seconds) suggests some groundswell energy, which at this reef and point break could produce a few cleaner lines, but that cross-on wind will still mess with the face. Don’t expect much.
The rest is just a write-off. Consistent small, short-period chop with onshore wind day after day. For a spot that’s usually consistent, this is a rough stretch. Forecasts can change, but right now, I’d save the wax for another week.

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 Waiehu beach 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.
