Trez Hir Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Right, grab a drink and let's have a yarn. Rusty here.

Truth be told, looking at Trez Hir right now, it’s a pretty bleak run for the next week and a half. We’ve got a big ol’ gap of nothing worthwhile until Thursday the 16th of July, and even then, it’s only just barely surfable. The long-range picture finally shows some pulse, so don’t write the place off completely.

Let’s break it down. Nothing doing from Monday the 13th through to Wednesday the 15th – tiny, weak swell with combined energy barely registering above 30 (26 or less at times), and even when the wind goes clean and offshore, there’s just not enough push. Thursday the 16th is our first glimmer of hope, with waist-high swell around 3 ft to 3 ft from the SW/SW, period between 7 and 8 seconds. It’s ordinary, but at least it’s surfable with a combined energy finally hitting three digits (101 in the afternoon). Winds are cross-offshore, keeping it clean enough for a longboard or a funboard.

Friday the 17th stays small, around 3 ft to 3 ft from the SW, with a short 6-second period. The afternoon sees a moderate offshore wind, so it’ll look clean, but it’s still pretty gutless. Then it’s back to tiny or flat from Saturday the 18th right through until late in the second week.

Right, here’s the only real standout in this entire 16-day window, and it’s a promising one. Monday the 27th of July is where it’s at. Trez Hir is set to see a solid pulse of groundswell, pushing up to 10 ft from the W with a period of 10 seconds. The combined energy spikes to a massive 1446, so there will be serious power. Winds are light and cross-offshore, so it’ll be clean. This is big, powerful surf – honestly, it’s for experienced surfers only. The morning session is where you want to be. The afternoon drops to 8 ft but gets a stronger cross-offshore wind, still good but a bit more challenging.

Before that, the best we get is Sunday the 26th of July – a decent precursor with 8 ft to 7 ft from the WSW, short 8-second period, but consistent and clean with offshore winds. Combined energy sits around 600, so it’s punchy. Still an expert-level day.

So, to be honest, you’ve got nearly two weeks of flat or poor conditions to work through, but that last Monday (27th) looks like it could be an absolute cracker. Mark your calendar and keep your fingers crossed.

Keep it salty.
Rusty.
