The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's cut the bull and talk about what Horseneck Beach has on offer for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a grim stretch. The surf is pretty much a no-show for days on end, and we’re staring at a long, flat spell. Don't expect anything worth paddling out for until we hit the second week of September. The water is running a touch warmer than usual for this time of year.
The only faint pulse comes on Wednesday the 9th of September. Early morning we might see a little bump, with a summary swell height of about 3 feet out of the SSW, with a period of 7 seconds. The combined swell energy will be moderate (102). Despite the small size, we’ve got some glassy conditions first thing, so it’ll look clean. The wind stays light, but it’s a cross-onshore, so it won’t be magic. By afternoon the energy sneaks up a bit (110), but that light breeze turns it choppy. If you’re itching for a session, the morning window is your only real option. Just don't expect much. It’s a closeout mess for the most part.
The rest of the run is flat out grim. There’s a blink of a glassy morning on the 12th of September, but the swell drops to 1 foot, so it’s barely a ripple. This is a stretch where you’re better off cleaning your board than riding it. Don't get your hopes up.
Rusty.

Information about the Horseneck Beach Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Horseneck Beach provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Horseneck Beach can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Horseneck 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 (Horseneck 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 Horseneck 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.
