Trez Hir Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, let’s break down the surf at Trez Hir. This spot is a bit of a tease, if I’m honest. It’s rated as rarely breaking, so you’ve got to be patient and pick your moments. The water temp is sitting at 62°, which is about normal for this time of year, so nothing to worry about on that front.

The first real chance to get wet kicks off on Saturday afternoon, the 5th of September. We’ve got a clean 6ft swell rolling in from the WNW, with a 12-second period. That’s a decent groundswell, and with a light offshore breeze from the NW at 6 mph, it’s going to be clean. The combined energy is a very strong 1034, so there’s plenty of power behind it. This is a standout session for the more experienced surfer – the size is a bit much for beginners, but for the rest of us, it’s a proper punchy wave.

Sunday the 6th is a write-off, with onshore winds and poor conditions. Monday the 7th, however, is the real highlight of the whole outlook. Monday morning brings a 7ft swell from the W, with a 13-second period and a light offshore breeze from the WNW. This is a serious groundswell, and the energy is massive at 1510. The forecast says it’s excellent for experienced surfers, and that’s spot on. Over 8ft, this is expert territory, but the quality will be outstanding. Monday afternoon keeps the goods with a 7ft swell and clean conditions, though the energy dips a little to 1267.

Tuesday the 8th and Wednesday the 9th are small and messy, not worth a paddle. Thursday the 10th is flat. Friday the 11th sees a bit of a return with a 5ft swell from the W, but the wind is up at 16 mph, so it’s a bit of a battle. Saturday the 12th has a cleaner 5ft swell in the afternoon from the WNW with a 10-second period and offshore winds. Not a standout, but surfable.

The next real standout window is Sunday the 13th of September. Sunday morning is glassy as it gets, with a light 6ft swell from the W, a 10-second period, and zero wind. The energy is 538, and the conditions are perfect. This is a fantastic window for anyone who can handle the size.

The tail end of the outlook has a couple of interesting sessions. Tuesday the 15th of September afternoon sees a very nice 5ft swell from the WNW with a long 13-second period and clean conditions. The energy is 677, and the quality looks very good. Wednesday the 16th morning holds a similar 5ft swell with a 12-second period.

After that, the swell drops off and the winds become less reliable. The 18th of September has glassy morning conditions, but only a 4ft swell, which is just ordinary. The last few days are small and not worth the effort.

So, to wrap it up: the absolute best on offer is Monday the 7th of September, with that big, powerful groundswell and clean offshore winds. The second standout is Sunday the 13th of September for the glassy, perfect conditions. Get on it if you can.
