Righto, let’s talk surf. Honestly, if you’re at Fenway Beach, you might want to keep the board in the car for a good stretch. We’re starting off with a real dud. For the first week, from Sunday the 5th of July right through to the 10th, it’s mostly tiny, weak, and chopped up. The wind’s messy, the swell’s barely a ripple, and we’ve got scores that say don’t even bother. You’re looking at a solid week of nothing rideable.
The first real glimmer shows up on Saturday the 11th of July. There’s a little pulse of south swell at about 4ft, with a period of 8 seconds. The big news is the wind: a light offshore from the NNE in the morning, and the water’s going clean. It’s not going to be pumping, but if you’re itching, the morning session might give you a few mediocre rolls. The combined energy is moderate for this spot (142), which is about as good as it gets in this forecast.
After that, it drops right off again – back to tiny, messy, or just flat. No real quality to hang your hat on until we get further out.
Now, here’s where it gets interesting. On Saturday the 18th of July, the south swell bumps up to 7ft, with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy jumps to a strong 699. This is a proper pulse of energy, but look, the wind is cross-onshore. It’s going to be lumpy, and it’s likely too big for beginners. For experienced surfers, there might be some hefty closeouts. Then Sunday the 19th holds similar size (6ft to 5ft) but the wind swings stronger, cross-onshore, making it a real battle. That whole stretch from the 18th to the 20th has energy but the quality is trashed by the wind. There’s no standout session here that’s going to be a classic, but the 18th morning has the most power if you’re a charger and don't mind messy conditions.
Truth is, this is a lean period for Fenway Beach. Keep an eye on the charts, because it tends not to stay this poor for long. But for now, maybe go for a surf skate.

Information about the Fenway Beach Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Fenway Beach provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Fenway Beach can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Fenway Beach 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 (Fenway Beach) 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 Fenway Beach 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.
