The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here, breaking down the surf for Hebara in the coming weeks.

Honestly, the first few days are a tough watch. Friday the 31st has some small, weak 2ft swell from the SSW, but the conditions are just okay, and that cross-off breeze isn’t helping. Saturday the 1st goes even flatter with a tiny 1ft swell, though the morning is glassy – still not enough to bother. Sunday the 2nd gets a bit more size, around 4ft to 4ft from the SE, but the wind on Sunday afternoon is messy with a cross-chop, so it’s a write-off.

We hit a lull in quality, but the energy starts to build. Monday the 3rd brings a 7ft SE swell in the morning, and the wind is cross-off, leaving it clean. That’s a decent wave, but the swell period is 17 seconds – that’s proper long-period groundswell. At a beach-and-reef setup like Hebara, it might break a bit too straight, but it’ll have plenty of push. The combined energy is already strong at 2610.

Now, the real story is from Tuesday the 4th of August through to Thursday the 6th. We get a massive pulse of swell. Tuesday morning has 13ft surf from the SE with a 17-second period, and the combined energy is a massive 8706. Wednesday the 5th is even bigger, peaking at 15ft from the SSE, with energy over 10,000. This is not for the faint of heart. The wind is cross or cross-off, but this size is strictly for experts only. Beginners and intermediates should stay well clear – it’s too big and powerful. The setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing on those days, honestly.

The swell drops through the end of the first week into the second. Friday the 7th has a 6ft swell, but it’s onshore, so it’s messy. The weekend of the 8th and 9th is small and cross-on, nothing to write home about.

The best day on offer, and the standout of the whole outlook, is Thursday the 13th of August. The morning brings a clean 5ft swell from the east with a 13-second period, and the wind is glassy – light and variable. The conditions will be excellent for experienced surfers. The combined energy is 1155, which is moderate, but the quality of the wave should be way better than the raw numbers suggest. That’s the one to circle.

After that, Friday the 14th and Saturday the 15th see a bit more size, around 7ft to 8ft from the ENE, but the wind is cross-on or onshore, so it’ll be choppy and hard to enjoy.

So, for the real highlight: get on Hebara on the morning of Thursday the 13th. The swell is 5ft east, with a long period, and glassy conditions. It’ll be clean, and the crowd is just “sometimes” so you might have it to yourself. It’s a consistent break, so you can trust it to produce. The water temperature is 80°F, which is about normal for the time of year, so no worries there.

If you’re an expert looking for a big-wave challenge, the 4th through 6th is on, but it’s raw and dangerous. For most of us, Thursday the 13th is the 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.

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.
