The Lowdown
Alright, I’m looking at the charts for the next couple of weeks, and honestly, it’s a pretty grim stretch for Hebara. We’re looking at a long stretch of nothing before any real hope shows up.
Right now, starting July 17th and running all the way through July 25th, it’s dead flat or just plain messy. We’ve got tiny swell, poor wind, and the wave comment is just “poor surf conditions” for every single session. The combined energy is weak, barely cracking 200 (146 to 252) most days, and the wind is mostly cross-onshore or onshore, so it’s choppy and blown out. The water temp is sitting around 77°, which is pretty average for the time of year, so no complaint there, but there’s nothing to surf on.
The first period that even looks worth paddling out for is around July 27th and 28th. On Monday, July 27th, we’ve got a 7ft to 8ft swell from the SSE with a period of 12 to 13 seconds. That’s a solid groundswell, but it’s pushing a ton of energy—over 1900 (1904 to 1884) on the energy scale. That’s strong, heavy stuff. The wind is cross-shore from the SW, so it’ll be a bit bumpy, but not totally ruined. This is only for experienced surfers though—at 8ft, it’s too big for beginners. The break is a beach-and-reef setup, so with that long period, it might be a bit straight and fast, but there’s power there.
The standout, if you can call it that, is actually Tuesday, July 28th. The morning session has a 5ft swell from the S, period 13 seconds, and the wind is a gentle cross-onshore from the SSE. The combined energy is 1220—still decent. The afternoon is similar, 5ft from the SSW, but the wind turns onshore from the SE. It’s still marginal, not clean, but it’s the best we’ve got in the whole 16 days. The later part of the week, July 30th and 31st, gets a 10ft pulse from the SSW, but it’s short period (6 to 8 seconds) and comes with onshore winds and risk of thunderstorms. That’s a messy, blown-out mess only for masochists.
There’s a gap of about 10 days with no real recommendations—from July 17th to July 26th, it’s all poor. Then from July 27th to 28th, it’s marginal at best. Then it drops off again. For a spot that’s usually consistent, this is a rough run. Sometimes you just have to wait for the next swell.

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.
