Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for Fenway Beach.
To be straight with you, this stretch is looking pretty grim for the next couple of weeks. The Finder has flagged zero good surf days, and scrolling through the numbers, I can see why. For the first week and a half, from now through the 18th of July, the swell is tiny, often under 3 ft and the period is short. The wind is mostly cross or cross-onshore, and the water energy is often under 100 (weak). It’s a real flat spell, and you’d be better off keeping the board in the car.
The one faint glimmer of hope comes in the final days of the outlook. Around the 20th of July, the swell does push up a bit—Monday afternoon sees 6 ft from the S, with a period of 8 seconds. That combined wave energy hits 358 (moderate), which is the biggest pulse in the whole run. But there’s a catch: that wind turns onshore from the SSE, so it’s going to be bumpy. This is a beach-and-breakwater setup, and with those onshore winds, it’s going to be messy. Honestly, that’s looking more interesting for the kite crowd than for paddling.
The water temperature at Fenway Beach is sitting at 67°, which is 1° cooler than the long-term average—basically normal for this time of year. Nothing odd there.
So, bottom line: there are no standout sessions to chase. The surf is poor across the board, and even the slightly bigger pulse late in the run is spoiled by the wind direction. It’s a blank spell, but for this area, that happens. Keep an eye on the charts; things rarely stay this quiet for long.
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.
