The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a pretty bleak stretch ahead. Things are looking flat and messy, with a real lack of clean, rideable waves for the better part of the forecast. There’s a big gap of poor surf conditions running from the start right through to the end of the third week of July. The water temp is sitting at 77°F, which is pretty much bang on average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The first real glimmer of anything worthwhile doesn’t show up until Saturday the 25th of July. The wind is forecast to be glassy in the morning, which is a major positive. We’ve got a short-period, 4ft swell from the South, with a period of only 6 seconds. That’s a weak, wind-driven affair, and combined energy is a moderate 291. It’s the cleanest morning on offer, but the swell is short and fat. Expect some fun little waves, but nothing to get overly excited about. The afternoon gets a bit messy.
The standout is on Sunday the 26th of July. The morning session at Hebara looks like the best bet. We’ll have a light, cross-offshore breeze from the Northeast, cleaning it up nicely. The swell is a consistent 4ft from the East-Northeast, with a period of 8 seconds. Combined energy is a moderate 269. It’s not a big swell, but it’s the most organised and cleanest wave of the whole period. This is the one to aim for.
After that, things get a bit hit and miss. Monday the 27th is marginal. The real surprise is Tuesday the 28th of July morning. Glassy conditions again with a light 2ft swell from the South-Southeast. The combined energy is weak at 212, but for a little cruiser, it’ll be clean. Then Thursday the 30th of July afternoon brings a clean, offshore breeze from the Northwest and a 2ft swell from the Southeast with a period of 10 seconds. Combined energy is a moderate 235, but it’s a clean, offshore setup. Both are fun little windows, but the 26th is the clear winner.
Overall, it’s a lean period. Don’t get your hopes up for anything big. The 26th is your best chance for a proper 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.
