The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what Fenway Beach has in store for us over the next couple of weeks. I gotta be straight with you, it's a bit of a mixed bag, and patience is going to be the name of the game.
Right from the get-go, we're looking at a long stretch of nothing special. The water temp is sitting at 67°F, which is a bit colder than usual for this time of year, so you might want a thicker spring suit. The first real glimmer of anything worthwhile doesn't pop up until Wednesday the 29th. Before that, it's all small, short-period wind swell in the 2ft to 3ft range, with onshore or cross-shore breezes making it choppy and generally poor.
That Wednesday the 29th morning is where things finally get a pulse. We’ve got a bump in swell to 6ft from the ESE with a short 6-second period. It's not going to be the most beautiful wave shape, but the wind is from the NNW and offshore, which means the surface should be clean. The energy reading is a moderate 191, so there's something to push you around. It's a slight upgrade from the nothing we've had, but conditions are still 'very ordinary'. The Wednesday afternoon sees the swell drop a touch to 4ft, but the energy actually climbs to 272 and the offshore wind sticks around.
If you're holding out for the standout, circle Thursday the 6th of August on your calendar. After another run of mediocrity, Thursday afternoon looks like the real deal. The swell builds to a solid 6ft from the SSW, with a short 7-second period. The real kicker is the wind – dead calm, glassy conditions. That's a major positive right there, giving you the cleanest surface you'll see all window. The combined energy hits 276, making it the most punchy swell of the whole forecast. It’s the best on offer.
For the rest of the second week, don't get your hopes up too high. The morning of Tuesday the 4th of August shows some potential with 4ft swell from the south and a 9-second period, and glassy winds, which is promising, but the energy is a weak 251 and conditions are still considered 'very ordinary'. There's not much else to get excited about as we head into the second weekend, with small, onshore, choppy conditions returning. Basically, if you can only get in the water once, make it that Thursday the 6th afternoon session.
This is 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.
