The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again, same spot, same story. Fenway Beach isn't giving us much to work with over the next 16 days. There’s a long dry spell right at the start, so don’t bother rushing out.
From now until the morning of July 22nd, it’s a bust. Small, weak swell, all under 3 feet, and the wind is chopping everything up. The first real chance comes on Wednesday morning, July 23rd. Swell climbs to about 4 feet out of the south, period around 8 seconds, and we get a clean cross-offshore breeze from the NNW at 9 mph. Energy picks up to moderate levels (236). That’s your best shot this whole period.
Then on Friday morning, July 24th, it goes dead flat but glassy. The wind is nearly nothing out of the SSE, just 3 mph. Swell is small at 2-3 feet, weak energy (131), but if you want an easy, clean session with no crowd, that’s your move. After that, it’s back to the same old story: small, short, and choppy through the rest of July and into early August. A few mornings here and there show clean conditions but with the swell barely a whisper. Nothing on this forecast screams "go now." The direction is never right, the winds are mostly wrong, and the energy just isn’t there. It’s a flat spell. We’ve been through it before.
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.
