The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get into it. This is Rusty, and I’m looking at the next couple of weeks for Hebara. Honestly, it’s a pretty slow start with a whole lot of nothing.
The first real chance of a surfable wave isn’t until Saturday the 22nd, and even then it’s marginal. The wind will be cross-shore from the SW at 9 mph, with the swell coming from the east at 3 ft and a period of 11 seconds. The combined wave energy is at 267, which is moderate. It’s a risk of thunderstorms day, and the conditions are only just scraping by. Sunday the 23rd morning is a real tease – the wind goes glassy, calm as can be, with the same east swell at 3 ft and a 10-second period (216 combined energy). That’s the cleanest window in the first week, but the swell is small and the risk of storms is still there.
Then there’s a big gap. The next thing that pops is Tuesday the 25th morning. The swell picks up to 3 ft from the SSE at 12 seconds, and the combined energy jumps to 729 – that’s strong. The wind is cross-shore from the ENE at 6 mph, so it’s light and could be okay, but the forecast calls it marginal. It’s still not a standout.
Now, if you’re an expert and you’re willing to wait, things get interesting way out there. On Wednesday the 2nd of September, the forecast shows a massive 16 ft east swell with a 12-second period and a combined energy of 6979. That’s very strong, and it’s too big for this break. The wind is cross-offshore from the NNE at 22 mph, which would make it clean, but it’s simply too much wave for Hebara. It’s going to be a washing machine, even for the most experienced. That’s not the day to be out here.
So, the honest truth? There’s no real standout in this 16-day window. The best bet is Sunday morning the 23rd for a tiny, glassy session if you’re desperate, but don’t expect much. Hebara is a consistent spot, so this run of poor conditions is a bit of a bummer, but forecasts can change. Keep an eye on it.
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.
