The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it.
We’ve got a bit of a mixed bag on the horizon at Hebara. The start of the period is a write-off, honestly. We’re looking at small, junky, cross-shore wind and messy conditions for the first few days. The real action doesn’t even start to look half-decent until Friday the 11th, and that’s more of a breather than a proper session.
The standout window is squarely on Monday the 21st and Tuesday the 22nd. That’s where the ocean wakes up. Monday afternoon sees a massive jump in energy with a deep southerly groundswell, combined swell energy is a beastly 5380, but it’s a big, powerful 8ft swell from the SSE with a very long 16-second period. That’s a proper groundswell, but for a beach-and-reef setup like Hebara, that long period might make it break a bit too straight and dumpy. The wind goes clean offshore from the NW though, so the surface will be pure glass. Tuesday the 22nd is even bigger – we’re talking 12ft of swell from the ENE (13-second period), with combined energy at 5955. That’s a huge, powerful swell. The morning has clean offshore wind from the NW, but the height is over 8ft, which means this is strictly for experts only. It’s going to be a washing machine for anyone else. For the average punter, the best of the smaller stuff is Friday the 11th. It’s only 3ft to 2ft, but the swell rolls in with a nice long period (14 seconds) from the ENE, and the morning has a gentle cross-off breeze, keeping the surface clean. It’s small, but it’s fun. The water temp is a touch warmer than normal at 82°.
So, to sum it up: the first week is mostly a dud. The second week looks promising, but the biggest energy is way too big for beginners. The standout for the experienced crew is Tuesday the 22nd, with that massive, clean, expert-only swell. For the rest of you, Friday the 11th is your best bet for a clean, small-wave session.
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.
