Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s on the menu for the next couple of weeks.
We’re looking at a rough start, truth be told. The early part of the window is pretty grim. From Wednesday July 8th all the way through to Friday July 17th, it’s a long run of marginal conditions at best—lots of cross-onshore wind and messy, chopped-up surfaces. There’s swell around, but the wind just ruins it for paddle surfing. The water is sitting at 73°, which is a bit colder than normal for this time of year, so you’ll want a decent wetsuit.
The first real standout finally shows up on Saturday July 18th in the morning. Hebara gets a clean window with a gentle cross-offshore breeze from the NNE. Swell is a solid 7 ft from the SE with a period of 13 seconds—that’s proper groundswell with some punch. The combined energy is moderate to strong (1559). This is a beach and reef setup, and with those conditions, it’ll be well-shaped and not too crowded, though it can get busy sometimes. Keep an eye on the afternoon though, as the wind swings cross-on and chops it up.
After that, things get serious. Sunday July 19th into Monday July 20th sees a big pulse of energy. The swell jumps to 10 ft to 15 ft from the SE, with periods hitting 15-16 seconds—that’s very long-period groundswell. Combined energy is massive (3273 to 8933). This is expert-only territory. The wind is light or onshore, but the sheer size will make it a washing machine at Hebara. It’s too big for any beginner or even most intermediates. It’ll be breaking straight and closing out at the beach, so it’s more of a show than a go.
Tuesday July 21st drops back a bit but remains marginal, until Wednesday July 22nd morning offers another nice moment. Glassy conditions with a 6 ft SE swell at 11 seconds. That’s a clean, user-friendly size with light offshore influence. Combined energy is moderate (1561). That morning session should be a gem for experienced surfers.
Then Thursday July 23rd brings another big spike—12 ft to 10 ft SE swell with fresh cross-winds. Again, for experts only, and the lumpy chop will make it a battle.
To sum it up: if you’re a competent surfer, the pick of the windows are Saturday July 18th morning and Wednesday July 22nd morning at Hebara. The big stuff on Sunday July 19th and Monday July 20th is just for the brave or the foolish. The rest is a write-off until those standouts.
Stay safe out there.

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.
