Trez Hir Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what Trez Hir is offering up over the next couple of weeks.

Right off the bat, I gotta tell ya, it's a slow start. For the first week and a half, the swell is tiny and the conditions are pretty poor. We're looking at a long stretch of nothing really rideable until the very end of the period. The water temperature is sitting at about 66°F right now, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but you won't be feeling it on these flat days.

So, for days from now through to the 25th of July, it's a total write-off. You're looking at waves around 1ft to 2ft, mostly from the west and northwest, but the energy is weak – we're talking combined energy values of just 4 to 48. The wind is light and sometimes offshore, but there's just no power to work with. It's all showing as 'poor surf conditions'.

Now, mark your calendar for the 26th of July. That Sunday morning is the standout. A solid 6ft swell rolls in from the WNW with a long period of 12 seconds, packing a punch with a combined energy of 923. The wind is offshore from the NW, so the lines should be clean and well-formed. This is the best on offer, and it's a good one for the more experienced surfers as 6ft is pushing it for beginners. That afternoon stays solid at just over 6ft, but the wind picks up to 19 mph, making it a bit more of a handful.

The 27th and 28th keep the swell size up, but you have to be more careful. Monday the 27th morning has 6ft waves and offshore wind, so it's still very good. But the afternoon starts to get a bit messy with a cross-off wind and the quality drops. The 28th sees the swell kick up even more, with 8ft waves from the SW. That’s big, expert-level stuff, but the wind is swinging around, and the period drops to 8 seconds, so the shape won't be as good as the 26th. The combined energy is still high, around 828, but the conditions are only marginal.

By the 29th, it's dropping off again with 5ft waves and moderate winds, but it's not the clean, powerful stuff we saw on the 26th. There's a little bit of hope for the 26th morning, but that's your one and only true highlight. For the rest, it's a waiting game.

Rusty.
