The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let's keep it real—this 16-day window is a total dud for Waiehu beach park. Every single session is marked as "poor surf conditions" with a score of zero. What's the deal? It's a non-stop run of cross-onshore winds out of the east-northeast, blowing 12 to 16 mph for most of the period, which is going to keep the surface all chopped up and messy. The swell is small to moderate, mostly 3 to 5 ft, but with a short period of 7 to 8 seconds, so there's no real power or shape. The combined wave energy sits mostly between 130 and 480 (moderate to weak), so it's wind chop, not real swell.
The first few days are the worst. Saturday morning the 1st of August starts with a 7 ft swell from the east-northeast, but it's short-period and cross-on, so it's just a lumpy mess. That theme holds through the first week. By Monday the 3rd of August, the swell drops to 5 ft but still with that choppy, cross-onshore wind. There's a small change on Thursday the 4th of August when the period bumps up to 11 seconds, hinting at some groundswell, but the wind is still cross-on at 9 mph, and the wave comments are still "poor." So don't get your hopes up.
There's a gap of nearly two weeks of nothing but "poor" before we see something on Sunday the 16th of August morning. The swell direction swings to the west-northwest with a period of 13 seconds and combined energy of 478 (moderate), but the swell height is only 2 ft and the wind is still cross-on from the east-northeast at 12 mph. That's a tease, not a session.
This is a reef and point break that's consistent and beginner-friendly when conditions are right, so it's a bummer to see it so flat and messy. The water temperature is about average for the time of year, so no surprises. But honestly, for the whole 16 days, there's not a single standout. If you're really keen, the setup with the persistent cross-onshore winds and moderate swell might actually be more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. Otherwise, keep your board dry or look elsewhere. Forecasts can change, but right now, it's a solid blank.

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.
