The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here, let’s take a look at what’s cooking. This is not a classic run, but there’s a little bit to work with.

The first real chance to get wet comes on Thursday the 6th of August. We’ve got a solid push of swell from the SSE, running 7ft with a 13-second period. That’s got some real energy – the combined energy reading is 1955, so it’s a strong pulse. But the wind is a cross-shore from the ENE, and it’s putting a light chop on the surface. The water temp is 78°, which is about 1° cooler than the long-term average, so it’s a touch on the cool side but nothing crazy.

The spot is Hebara, a beach-and-reef break. It’s consistent and exposed to the swell, with the best direction being SE. That 7ft swell is getting into the “bigger for beginners” zone, but it’s not a full-on expert session yet. The problem is the wind. It turns onshore in the afternoon, and Friday the 7th is a write-off with 6ft from the S and onshore wind making it choppy. The energy drops to 1268, still moderate. Saturday and Sunday are a bit of a bust, with smaller swells and messy wind.

The best window is Monday the 10th of August. The swell drops to 5ft from the E, but the wind swings to a clean cross-offshore from the NE. That’s the key. The combined energy is 759, moderate, but the clean conditions will make it more fun than the bigger, choppier days. You want to be out there in the morning because the afternoon gets lumpy again. Tuesday the 11th is another decent call with 6ft from the ENE and cross-offshore wind, and the energy jumps to 1363. That’s a solid groundswell with an 11-second period. It’s got more punch, but it’s still clean.

From the 12th onward, it’s a slow grind. The swell hangs around 3ft to 5ft, but the wind is almost always cross or cross-onshore, sometimes strong. The energy drops into the 200-700 range, and the wave comments are all “poor surf conditions.” There’s a long stretch from the 16th to the 21st of August that’s just flat and messy. By the 21st, we’re down to 2ft from the S with a 12-second period, but the wind is a moderate cross-shore. It’s not worth the effort.

So, the picks are Monday the 10th morning for the cleanest conditions, and Tuesday the 11th morning for the best combo of size and quality. After that, we’re waiting for the next system. It’s a quiet spell, but it happens.

Rusty.

Information about the Hebara Surf forecast

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

Hebara is 8 km (5 miles) from Ohara. If you plan a holiday in Chiba, look for hotels and other accommodation in Ohara. Ohara has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
