Trez Hir Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the table for the next couple of weeks.

To be straight with you, the first week and a half is a write-off. There’s a long stretch from the start of the outlook right through to the 24th of July where the surf is just too small or messy to bother with. We’re talking about tiny waves, mostly under 2 feet, with weak energy, and onshore or cross-off winds that aren’t doing us any favours. It’s a real flat spell, and honestly, there’s no point in even paddling out.

Now, the real story starts to build later in the period. The standout here is Trez Hir, and it’s all happening on the morning of Saturday the 25th of July. That’s when we finally see a pulse of WNW swell pushing in at 5 feet, with a solid 12-second period and combined energy jumping to 588 (moderate). The wind is light and cross-off, keeping it clean. That morning session is the best on offer, no question. The swell is a bit small for experts but plenty fun for anyone else, and the direction is a good match for the break.

The swell sticks around for Sunday the 26th, but it gets a bit bigger and a bit more wind-affected. The morning of the 26th shows 6 feet from the WNW with offshore winds, but the energy is up at 592 and the period drops to 10 seconds. It’s still surfable, but the Saturday morning is the one to circle.

After that, we get some bigger swell pushing through on the 27th and 28th, with waves over 7 feet. That’s expert territory, and the winds turn cross and cross-onshore, messing up the surface. The energy is strong, but it’s not clean. By the 29th, the swell is still 8 feet to 8 feet with cross-onshore winds, so that’s more of a kite-surfing setup than a paddle session.

To sum it up: the first week is a bust. Wait for the 25th of July for your best window. The water temp is 65°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so the wetsuit can be a bit thinner.

Rusty.
