The Lowdown

G'day, Rusty here, checkin' in with a look at the surf ahead. I'm gonna level with you straight up—this is a tough stretch for our shores. We're looking at a solid two weeks of mostly flat, poor conditions before a real surge of energy finally arrives, but it comes with its own set of problems.

The water's sittin' around 79°, which is pretty much bang on average for the time of year, so no surprises there.

Right now, through the end of July and into the first couple of days of August, it's a write-off. We're talking tiny waves, weak energy, and breezes that are either cross or cross-onshore, putting a chop on everything. The combined energy barely cracks 100 at best, and mostly it's struggling in the double digits. Poor surf conditions are the story, day after day. There's a long gap here with no real surf on offer.

Now, keep your eyes on Monday, August 3rd. The swell starts to build. By Monday afternoon, we're seeing a 6ft south-east swell at 17 seconds, which is a proper long-period groundswell. The energy jumps to 1679, but it's still a cross-onshore wind, so it's gonna be messy and choppy. The score's still low, so don't get too excited.

The standout—and I mean the only real standout in this entire 16-day window—is Tuesday, August 4th. The morning sees an 8ft south-east swell, and by the afternoon, it's pushing 10ft from the same direction, with a 17-second period. The combined energy is massive, hitting 4206. The wind is cross, but it's a light breeze, which is the best we'll see. This is big, powerful, groundswell. For a beach and reef setup like Hebara, that long period can make it break a bit straight, but the power is undeniable. This is expert territory at 8ft to 10ft—too big for beginners. It's a marginal forecast, but it's the biggest pulse of the whole period.

Wednesday, August 5th, stays big at 10ft, but the wind picks up to a fresh 19 mph cross breeze, bringing a lumpy cross-chop. Thursday is similar, still big but with more moderate cross-shore wind. The energy remains in the thousands, but the quality is dropping. By Friday, August 7th, the swell backs down to 7ft, and the wind goes cross-onshore, chopping it up further.

So, if you're an expert charger, Tuesday the 4th is your window. It's the only time the size and the wind align to give you something remotely rideable. The rest of the time, it's either flat or a choppy mess. For the everyday surfer, this is a long stretch to sit out. Signing off, 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.
