The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you: this outlook is a tough one. We’ve got what looks like a classic flat spell settling in, with very little to get excited about for the next couple of weeks. The good news is there’s a few small windows where conditions clean up, but don’t expect any fireworks.

The first real chance to get wet comes on Thursday, July 23rd. The morning session at Fenway Beach is the best we’ve got. The water is a bit colder than normal for this time of year, sitting at 67°F. We’re looking at a small 4ft swell from the south, with a moderate energy level (257). The wind is a light, cross-off breeze from the northeast, which will keep the surface clean. It’s a surfable wave, but the conditions are still very ordinary. The swell period is a short 9 seconds, so it won’t have much punch, but for beginners, it’s a safe size.

After that, the forecast is a real grind. The surf drops off dramatically, and we’re looking at consistent “poor surf conditions” for days on end. There’s a gap of over a week where I wouldn’t bother paddling out. The swells are small, the wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, and the energy readings are weak (mostly under 100). It’s a blank run that’s pretty normal for this area when the pattern stalls.

Looking way out to Monday, August 3rd, there’s a glimmer. The morning brings a 4ft swell from the southeast with a bit more energy (118), and a light cross-off wind from the west-northwest. Again, it’s surfable but ordinary. It’s a long way off, so don’t bank on it, but it’s the only other window worth noting in the whole 16-day stretch.

Honestly, if you’re desperate for a paddle, Thursday morning is your only real shot. The rest of the time, the beach setup with poor surf and moderate wind might actually be more interesting for the kiteboarders than us. The waves are just too weak and messy to get excited about.

Stay patient, 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.
