The Lowdown

G’day, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the table at Hebara over the next couple of weeks. This is a beach and reef setup that’s exposed to the swell and breaks pretty consistently, which is a good start. The water temp is sitting around 80°, which is dead average for this time of year, so no surprises there.

We kick off Sunday morning, the 9th of August, with some real promise. A solid 6ft ESE groundswell rolling in with a 13-second period – that’s proper long-period energy. The combined wave energy is strong at 1131. What really makes this one stand out is the glassy conditions with a whisper-light ENE breeze at just 3 mph. The wind is offshore and the sea is clean. This is excellent surf for experienced surfers. The swell’s a bit over 5ft, so it’s not for beginners, but for anyone who knows what they’re doing, this is the pick of the forecast. Crowds can be an issue here sometimes, so get in early.

Sunday afternoon sees the wind shift and pick up to a 9 mph cross-onshore, messing up the surface. The swell holds, but the quality drops right off. Not worth paddling out.

Monday the 10th has a bit more size at 7ft from the east, period around 12 seconds, so still a groundswell. The morning sees a cross-offshore breeze at 16 mph, keeping things relatively clean, but the combined energy jumps to 1323 – strong. The afternoon gets choppy with a fresh cross-shore. Again, not great.

Tuesday the 11th is another standout morning. Swell’s 7ft from the ENE, 10-second period, and the wind is a light cross-offshore at 6 mph. Clean conditions and a combined energy of 1514 – that’s a powerful, punchy swell. Another one for experienced surfers only, given the size.

From Wednesday the 12th through to the end of the first week, things drop off. We get a run of smaller, weaker swells with onshore or cross-shore winds. The combined energy falls into the low hundreds – weak by comparison. A few mornings show clean conditions, like Friday the 14th with 6ft from the east and a cross-off breeze, but the scores are just not there.

The second week opens up on Sunday the 16th with a return of size – 8ft from the east, 11-second period, and a combined energy of 1412. That’s strong, but the wind is a moderate cross-shore, so the surface will have some bump. Worth a look for experienced crew. Monday the 17th sees even bigger 10ft swell from the ESE, but it’s short-period (9 seconds) and cross-shore wind at 16 mph. That’s big, messy, and for experts only. The rest of that week sees the swell drop and the winds stay strong or onshore, with combined energy mostly in the low hundreds. There’s a small window on Friday the 21st morning with a tiny 3ft, but it’s weak and cross-shore.

The last few days, from the 22nd onward, are small and poor. A 3ft SSE groundswell on Sunday the 23rd morning might offer a tiny cleanish window, but it’s marginal at best.

Overall, the true standouts are Sunday morning the 9th and Tuesday morning the 11th – both offer strong, clean, powerful surf for those who can handle it. The rest of the period is a mixed bag of size with messy winds or small weak dribble.

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.
