The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking for the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, it’s a bit of a slow start. Saturday and Sunday are pretty ordinary – small, weak, cross-shore winds, not much to get excited about. The water temperature is sitting about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The real standout is Monday morning, August 24th, at Hebara. We’ve got a clean, glassy surface with an ESE offshore breeze, and a nice 4ft groundswell rolling in from the SSE. The period is a long 18 seconds, which means proper, powerful lines with long gaps between sets. The energy is strong at 1326, and with the swell direction coming right out of the southeast, it’s hitting the optimum for this spot. This is the best window of the whole forecast – clean, lined-up waves for experienced surfers.
Monday afternoon sees the swell bump up to 7ft, but the wind swings cross-on and it gets choppy, so that morning window is where it’s at.
Tuesday morning, August 25th, still has some size – 6ft from the SSE with a 13-second period – but the cross-shore wind puts a bit of chop on it. It’s still surfable, but not as clean as Monday.
We then hit a flat, windy spell through the rest of the week. Wednesday through to Saturday, August 30th, is mostly poor with light swell and moderate breezes, nothing worth paddling out for.
Things pick up again on Sunday morning, August 30th. We’ve got a 7ft swell from the SE, period 12 seconds, and a clean cross-off breeze from the NNE. The energy is strong at 1447, and the waves are set up for experienced surfers again. This is a solid session, if you can handle the size.
After that, the swell stays big into Monday, September 1st, with 8ft from the SE, but the wind gets messy and cross-onshore, so it’s more of a big-wave wind-slop situation. The following days drop off a bit in size but the wind stays troublesome, with a lot of cross-onshore and lumpy conditions.
There’s a brief clean window mid-week, around Wednesday, September 2nd, with a 7ft E swell and a good cross-off breeze, but it’s only marginal due to the energy and wind. By the time we get to the first weekend of September, the winds are fresh and choppy, and the swell is all over the place.
Best bet: Monday August 24th morning – glassy, clean, long-period groundswell, and the right direction. That’s your 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.
