The Lowdown

G'day, I'm Rusty. Let's have a look at what Fenway Beach has on offer.

Honestly, it's a pretty grim outlook across the whole 16-day window. We've got a run of poor surf conditions and very ordinary waves, with no real standout days at all. The water is sitting at 68°, which is a bit colder than normal for this time of year – that's a solid 3° cooler than average, and you'll feel that chill.

We start on Wednesday, July 29th. There's a 6ft swell from the SSE with a short period of 6 seconds. The combined wave energy is 323, which is moderate, but the wind is a 22 mph cross-onshore from the SE, making it lumpy and poor. It's not worth paddling out. Thursday the 30th sees the swell drop to 3ft from the SSE, with an 8-9 second period, and the wind switches offshore from the NNW at 6 mph on the morning. The energy is moderate at 195. Conditions clean up, and you get surfable waves, but it's ordinary. For a beginner break, that offshore wind will make it look better than it is.

Friday, July 31st, the swell is small at 3ft with a 9-second period and energy of 140. The morning has a light cross-offshore breeze from the WNW, making it clean. Again, surfable but nothing special. From Saturday the 1st of August through to Tuesday the 12th of August, it's mostly poor surf conditions. The swell stays small, between 1ft and 4ft, with short periods often under 8 seconds. The wind is consistently cross-onshore, onshore, or just messy. The energy is weak to moderate at best, peaking at 211 on Friday the 7th of August, but with a 6-second period and poor winds. There's a stretch here where you could go a week without a decent wave.

Sunday, August 9th, has a 5ft swell from the SSW with a 7-second period and energy of 206. The morning has a light cross-offshore breeze from the WNW, cleaning it up, so it's surfable but very ordinary. Monday, August 10th, offers a 4ft swell from the S with an 8-second period and energy of 191. The morning is glassy with an easterly breeze at just 3 mph, giving you clean, smooth conditions. This is probably the best of a bad bunch, but it's still just surfable. The combined swell energy is 191 in the morning, but it's not a standout by any means.

After that, from Tuesday the 11th of August through Thursday the 13th, it's back to poor surf with small, weak swell and onshore or cross-onshore winds. There's simply no good surf on offer in this entire forecast period. For Fenway Beach, with the small, short-period swell and frequent onshore winds, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. The forecasts can change though, and it tends not to stay this poor for long.

Rusty, signing off.

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.
