Alright folks, Rusty here with the lowdown on Fenway Beach. Gotta be honest—this 16-day window is mostly a dud, so don’t get your hopes up.

We’re lookin’ at a long stretch of weak, small swell and winds that are almost always onshore or sideways. Water temp is 65°F, a bit chilly for the season, so you’ll feel it.

Kickin’ it off Saturday, 4th July: morning has a 1-foot SE swell with a 9-second period, cross wind, and weak energy—barely a ripple. Afternoon bumps to 2 feet but from the SSW with a pathetic 4-second period and messy cross-on wind. Sunday 5th is more of the same, tiny 1-footers. Monday 6th sees the biggest swell of the week at 5 feet ESE by the afternoon, but the period is short and wind is fresh cross-shore, making it a lumpy, choppy mess. Energy hits moderate but the conditions are poor—this one’s more for kite surfers than paddlers.

Tuesday 7th is the one bright spot. Morning has 3 feet ESE with a clean light cross-off breeze, energy moderate. Afternoon goes 3 feet with offshore wind from the NNE, clean and rideable, though still weak. That’s about as good as it gets.

Wednesday 8th through to Saturday 18th July is a long, flat run of knee-to-waist high mush, mostly with onshore wind, rain, and even thunderstorms on the 18th. Swell periods are short, energy is mostly low. A few bits hit moderate energy on the 17th and 18th, but with onshore wind and rough conditions it’s not worth the paddle.

The final day, Sunday 19th July, morning shows 3 feet S with a clean cross-off breeze and moderate energy. It’s still just ordinary, but it’s the best thing in the second week.

If you’re really itchin’, hit it Tuesday 7th or maybe the morning of Sunday 19th. Otherwise, save your energy for another window.

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.
