The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's get into it for Fenway Beach (breakwater).

First up, the water temp is sittin' around 69°, which is pretty much normal for this time of year. With the anomaly at just 0.9°, you're not gonna need a steamer or a spring suit unless you're real sensitive.

Now, I gotta be straight with you: this 16-day window is a tough one. The swell's gonna be tiny, the periods are short, and the wind is mostly gonna stuff it up. We're looking at a long dry spell for any kind of decent wave. The first few days have a bit of energy but it's all poor quality surf, so don't get your hopes up.

Thursday the 10th sees a bit of a pulse with a 4ft SSW swell, but with a short 7-second period and cross-shore wind, it's gonna be all chop and no juice. That combined swell energy is only 142 (moderate), but the conditions will kill it. Then from Friday the 11th right through to Wednesday the 17th, we're looking at waists to knees at best, with a mix of onshore and cross-onshore breezes. Not worth paddling out for.

We get a brief window of calm on Monday the 14th afternoon, with glassy conditions, but the swell is only 2ft from the SE with a 6-second period. It'll look like a lake, but there's no push.

From the 18th of September onward, the swell drops into the ankle-to-shin range with a long period of 12 seconds, but the energy is practically zero. The 24th of September shows the highest combined energy in the whole run, hitting 111 (moderate) on Thursday morning and 140 (moderate) in the afternoon, but that's from a 2ft ESE swell with a 10-second period. The wind is chopping it up, so it'll be a mess.

Honestly, the whole run is flat and fizzled out. There isn't one standout day. For a breakwater spot like Fenway, it's a total bust. With the swell that small and the wind that bad, this setup looks more interesting for a kite than a paddle.

Rusty.

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.
