The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s cookin’ at Fenway Beach over the next couple of weeks.

Honestly, it’s a tough stretch ahead. For the next week and a half, this spot is gonna be a tough sell. We’ve got a long gap of days where the surf is just not cooperating, so if you’re itching to paddle out, you’ll need to be patient. The water temp is sitting at 67°, which is a bit colder than normal for this time of year, so a good-quality spring suit is the move if you’re keen.

Thursday the 16th kicks off with a tiny 1 ft SSW swell and some cross-onshore wind, making for a choppy, bumpy mess. That pattern sticks around for days – small waves, wrong wind directions, and poor conditions. The combined swell energy stays weak, mostly in the teens and twenties (brackets: 17 to 33). Saturday the 20th sees a bump to 4 ft and a longer 9-second period, but the wind is still cross-onshore with light rain, and it’s just not clean. Not worth it.

There’s a flicker of hope on the morning of Wednesday the 22nd: 4 ft swell from the south with a 9-second period and a clean cross-offshore wind from the northwest. The energy jumps up to moderate (brackets: 251). That’s a session you might actually enjoy if you’re desperate – the wind is clean and the waves could have a bit of shape. But it’s still only rated as poor surf conditions overall.

The real standout, and the only one I’d circle on the calendar, hits on the final day: Friday the 31st. The morning shows a solid 5 ft swell from the south, period of 6 seconds – so it’s a bit short period, but the wind is clean and cross-off from the WNW. The combined energy is solid (brackets: 280). The description says “expect good surf conditions,” and that’s the best we get. By the afternoon the swell pushes to 5 ft, but it’s still manageable for most surfers. That morning window on the 31st is your best bet all outlook – clean, punchy waves, and a bit of energy behind them.

Don’t hold your breath in between. There’s a long dry spell from the 16th right through to the 30th with hardly a decent wave to speak of. But the end of the month might just throw you a bone.

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.
