The Lowdown

G'day, Rusty here. Let's have a look at how things are shaping up for Hebara over the next couple of weeks.

Alright, straight up, we've got a bit of a flat spell to start. The first surf that's even worth considering won't show up 'til Tuesday, 1st of September, and even then it's only a marginal call. The real standout is looking like Tuesday, the 8th of September, but there are a few stretches with nothing that's worth paddling out for, so you'll be picking your moments.

The first window is Tuesday, 1st of September morning. It's a marginal start with swell around 3ft from the ESE. The energy is moderate, clocking in at 315. Winds are light cross-shore, which is about as good as you're going to get that day, but the period's short at 12 seconds, so the waves will be a bit weak and gutless. Not one to get too excited about.

Wednesday, the 2nd of September morning looks similar – 3ft from the ESE with a period of 10 seconds. The combined energy drops a bit to 244. Light cross-shore winds again, keeping it clean, but it's still a marginal day. Not a standout, just something to wet the line if you're desperate.

Now, Tuesday, 8th of September morning is the one to circle. The swell pushes up to 8ft from the SE with a 10-second period. That's a solid, powerful groundswell. The combined energy is a very strong 1309. Winds are light and cross-shore, so it should be glassy and clean. This is a proper, meaty swell for Hebara. It's a beach and reef break, and with long-period SE swell, the reefs and points will be handling it best – the beach might get a bit straight. But at 8ft, this is for experienced surfers only; beginners should sit this one out. This is truly the best on offer across the whole forecast.

Wednesday, 9th of September morning hangs in there with 7ft from the SE, combined energy still very strong at 1221. Winds are moderate cross-shore, so it's still surfable, but that tidy glassiness is gone. A good backup if you missed Tuesday.

Thursday, 10th of September morning has a solid 8ft from the SE but the wind cranks up – a strong breeze from the NNE, cross-offshore, so it'll be clean but howling. The energy is massive at 2044. This is a powerful, clean swell but the wind will make it a battle; it's for the dedicated crew only.

After that, things turn nasty. From the 11th of September right through to the 13th, it's stormy. Friday is risk of thunderstorms with strong onshore winds and messy waves. Saturday looks worse – near gale-force winds and a total blowout. Even Sunday stays onshore and choppy. Not worth a look.

Finally, Monday, 14th of September morning brings some relief. Swell drops to 4ft from the SSW with a lovely long period of 13 seconds. The combined energy is moderate at 646. Winds are light cross-offshore from the NNE, so it'll be clean. This is a nice, long-period groundswell that should wrap nicely into the reef. It's not big, but it'll be fun and clean – a decent way to finish the forecast period.

So, bottom line: if you're waiting for something good, aim for Tuesday the 8th of September. That's the big one. The water temp is about average for this time of year.

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.
