Henrys Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, let’s talk about Henrys. It’s a reef break, consistent, and you’ll often see a few other heads out there. Water temp is about what you’d expect for this time of year.

The first few days are a bit of a slow burn. Wednesday the 15th has some clean, glassy surf in the afternoon with a 2ft SW swell running at a very long 16 seconds. The combined energy is moderate (418). That morning, there’s a 2ft SSW swell and offshore wind, so it’s clean. The 16th and 17th are just average – cross-off winds and marginal surf. Friday the 17th morning is poor, with only 1ft on offer.

The 18th is nothing special. Sunday the 19th afternoon picks up a bit with a 2ft SW swell and offshore wind, clean and with moderate energy (205). It’s okay, but not a standout.

Now, the second week is where it gets interesting. The real standout window starts on Sunday the 26th. The morning brings a 4ft SW swell (19s period) with clean conditions and a gentle breeze. The combined energy is strong (1016). That afternoon gets glassy with a 4ft SW swell. Good, clean lines.

Then Monday the 27th morning is a beauty. Dead calm, glassy conditions, with a 5ft SW swell (18s period). The energy is very strong (1388). This is excellent for experienced surfers – too big for beginners.

Tuesday the 28th morning keeps the fun going with a 5ft SW swell (18s) and clean conditions, energy is very strong (1491). Again, expert territory.

The 29th and 30th still have solid waist-to-chest high swell with clean conditions and lighter winds, but the absolute best of the window is the 26th, 27th, and 28th. That long-period SW groundswell will be lining up nicely at this reef. It’s a point-and-shoot setup, so expect long, clean waves.

First week is for the die-hards. Second week, from the 26th to the 30th, is the real deal. Get out there.
