Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight – it’s a long, quiet run ahead at Fenway Beach. This place is a breakwater setup, fairly exposed, best with swell from the SE. The water’s sitting at 67°, which is pretty much what you’d expect for this time of year.

The whole first week is a total write-off. We’re talking from Tuesday the 7th right through to Sunday the 13th – nothing but tiny, weak junk. Heights barely scrape 1.0ft to 5ft, and the period is short and nasty. Winds are mostly cross or onshore, keeping things choppy. The combined energy never cracks triple digits (peaking at a pathetic 143), so don’t even bother paddling out.

The second week doesn’t get much better. From Monday the 14th through to Friday the 18th morning, it’s the same story – small, weak swell in the 1.0ft to 4ft range with even weaker energy (as low as 15 to 87). The only thing that gets my heart pumping is the Saturday the 18th morning session. We finally see a real pulse of 7ft S swell with a 9-second period, and the wind goes glassy (W at 3 mph). The energy jumps to 995, which is solid. That’s your one real window. But it’s a morning-only deal – by the afternoon, it’s onshore and the quality drops out. Because that 7ft is pushing past the beginner zone, you want to be comfortable on a bigger board.

After that, Sunday the 19th morning is marginal – still 5ft S swell (463 energy) with a light cross-on breeze, but it’s not clean. And from there it trails off again into weak 2ft to 4ft slop through the rest of the period.

So, the standout here is very simple: Saturday morning, July 18th. That’s your best shot. Get out early for a glassy 7ft groundswell before the wind turns. Otherwise, it’s a long dry spell. This area tends to go quiet like this, but forecasts can flip. Keep an eye on it.

Stay salty,
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.
