The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's on the table for Trez Hir.
First up, the water temp is sitting around 64°, which is pretty much what you'd expect for this time of year – no nasty surprises there.
Honestly, for the first week, it's a real struggle. We're looking at a whole lot of nothing from now through to the end of the first week of August. Tiny dribbles, mostly under 2ft, and the wind is all over the shop. There's a couple of afternoons with clean offshore breeze, but with almost no swell to push it around, it's flat. You'd be better off checking the tide pools. The combined wave energy is down in the single and low double digits for days – that's a flat spell.
We finally get a pulse on Wednesday the 12th. The morning shows a bit of life with a 3ft swell from the west, period at 10 seconds, and a gentle offshore wind from the WNW. It's clean, but the energy is only moderate (158). It's surfable, but I'd call it a "get the wetsuit on and hope for a fun one" kind of day. The afternoon holds similar size with a bit more wind.
The real action, the one that gets my heart pumping, kicks off on Monday the 17th of August. We see a solid push of swell. Morning has 5ft from the WNW with a period of 7 seconds and a gentle offshore breeze from the NW. The energy is strong (275). The afternoon is even better – 6ft, same direction, clean offshore wind. That's a good, solid, paddling-out session.
Then Tuesday the 18th is the standout. The afternoon session is where it's at. We're looking at a clean 6ft of swell from the WNW, period of 8 seconds, and a light offshore wind from the WNW. The combined energy is a strong 461. That's proper waves, clean faces, and not too much crowd hassle if you pick your spot. This is the one to circle on the calendar. It's sizey enough to be fun but not out of control.
The energy builds even further into the week. Wednesday the 19th afternoon sees 6ft from the west, period of 8 seconds, and a moderate offshore wind from the NNW. The energy jumps to a very strong 774. That's a lot of water moving around, and the wind will hold it open. That's a serious session for any experienced surfer.
Saturday the 22nd of August is another big one. The morning shows 7ft from the WSW, period of 9 seconds, and a clean offshore wind from the WNW. The energy is massive (1076). Now, that's big. At 7ft, this is for the well-experienced crew only. Beginners, stay on the beach for this one. The afternoon holds similar size, still at 6ft with a period of 10 seconds, but the wind goes cross-offshore, which might make it a bit more manageable.
So, to wrap it up: the first week is a write-off. The real action starts from the 17th of August. The best of the best? Monday the 18th afternoon and Wednesday the 19th afternoon. Both offer clean, powerful waves with good wind. The big Saturday swell on the 22nd is for the hardcore lot only.
Rusty.

Information about the Trez Hir Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Trez Hir provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Trez Hir can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Trez Hir surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period.

Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Trez Hir may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
