Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s cookin’ for this little stretch.
First up, we’ve got Hebara, a beach-and-reef setup that’s exposed to the swell. The water’s sittin’ at about 76°, which is bang on average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
Honestly, the outlook is a bit of a slow burn. The first several days are pretty flat and weak. Monday the 13th has a tiny bit of life—about 4ft of SSW swell with a 13-second period, but it’s a risk t-storm morning with cross winds, and the combined energy is only moderate (475). Hardly worth paddling out for. The afternoon cleans up a little, but the swell drops to 3ft. Not gonna get the heart racing.
Tuesday the 14th morning is glassy, but the swell is a measly 2ft and the energy is low (162). It’s surfable, but you’d be bored. From Wednesday the 15th all the way through to Saturday the 19th, the surf is just junk—small, choppy, and onshore. There’s a gap of about 5 days where you’d be better off stayin’ home.
Now, Sunday the 19th morning shows a glimmer: 3ft of SE swell, clean cross-off wind, and the energy bumps up to 458. Still not epic, but it’s a start. The real standout doesn’t arrive until Wednesday the 22nd of July. This is the one to circle. The morning brings 7ft of E swell with a solid 11-second period, glassy conditions, and the combined energy is strong (1228). That’s groundswell territory, and at a beach-and-reef break, it’ll be a bit straight, but for experienced surfers, this is excellent. The crowd can be around sometimes, so don’t expect solitude.
That morning is the best on offer. After that, Thursday the 23rd and beyond drop off into poor, choppy junk again.
So, the takeaway: if you’re an experienced surfer, that Wednesday the 22nd is your window. The rest is slim pickin’s.
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.
