The Lowdown
Alright, let’s look at what we’ve got coming down the line. Don’t get your hopes up for the first bit, because Trez Hir is a spot that rarely breaks, and we’re in a dry spell.
There’s a big gap at the start. From now until around the 11th of August, there is virtually nothing worth a paddle. We’re talking tiny, weak waves – 0.6ft to 2ft – with energy that’s barely registering. Winds are messy, and it’s just flat and frustrating.
It picks up a little on Wednesday the 12th of August (morning). That morning brings a clean 4ft swell from the WSW with a 9-second period. The energy is moderate (282), and the light cross-offshore breeze will keep the surface clean. It’s not a world-beater, but it’s the first real chance for a wave. The water temperature feels about normal for the season.
Now, the standout. Sunday the 16th of August. That morning we get a solid 7ft of swell from the WNW, with an 8-second period. The energy jumps way up (759), and the wind goes light offshore and clean. This is proper surf. At this size, beginners will want to sit it out, but for everyone else, this is the one to aim for. Crowds can show up here, so plan ahead.
And if you can, Monday the 17th of August (morning) goes even bigger: 8ft from the WNW with an 8-second period and very strong energy (1119). Light offshore wind again. That’s expert-only territory, but it’s the biggest and best session of the whole forecast.
So, the story is simple: a long, quiet start, a slight warm-up around the 12th, but the real fire lights up on the 16th and 17th of August. Mark those dates.

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. If you surf the same spot (Trez Hir) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. 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.
