Trez Hir Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it.

First off, I gotta be straight with you – the outlook for Trez Hir over the next 16 days is a bit of a mixed bag. We’ve got a few windows where it’ll be worth paddling out, but there’s a lot of junk to wade through. The first decent surf doesn’t show up until Thursday the 4th, so don’t get your hopes up for the early part of the week.

The real standout is the Friday the 4th afternoon session. The swell is pushing 5 ft from the WNW with a period of 11 seconds. That’s a proper groundswell, and it’s packing a solid punch – the combined energy is sitting at 594 (moderate wave energy). The wind is a cross-offshore breeze at 9 mph, keeping things clean. This is the best on offer, no question. It’s a little punchy for beginners, but intermediates will have a good time. The morning of the 4th is also worth a look with 4 ft from the WNW and a 9-second period, clean conditions, and energy at 272 (moderate).

After that, it drops off. Saturday the 5th and Sunday the 6th are pretty weak, with swell dropping to 3 ft and 2 ft respectively. The glassy Sunday afternoon with 2 ft might give you a few fun little ones if you’re on a longboard, but it’s not a highlight.

We do get a bit of a pulse on Wednesday the 9th. The morning has 7 ft from the W with an 8-second period, and the wind is offshore at 19 mph. The energy is 566 (moderate). That’s a big swell for Trez Hir, and it’s gonna be a bit of a washing machine for the beach breaks – better suited for experienced surfers. The afternoon is a bit smaller at 6 ft from the W with a 10-second period, clean cross-off wind, and energy at 683 (moderate). Still, the setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing given the size and the short period.

From Thursday the 10th onward, it’s a long, quiet stretch. The swell drops to under 4 ft, and the wind is often strong or messy. There’s a gap of several days with no real recommendations. The last few days of the forecast period – from the 13th to the 16th – are basically flat or tiny, with poor conditions.

So, bottom line: Friday the 4th afternoon is your best bet. The morning of the 4th is a solid second option. Wednesday the 9th is for the brave or the kite crew. Otherwise, it’s a time to rest the arms and wait for the next one.

Keep an eye on the forecasts, lads. It’s been a bit of a quiet spell, but it won’t stay this way forever.

Rusty.
