The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about the local surf scene for the next couple of weeks.
Well, truth be told, it’s a pretty grim stretch ahead for Horseneck Beach. The finder isn’t throwing up any good surf options in the entire 16-day window. Every single entry is a dud, and that’s unusual for a spot that’s *fairly consistent* – so don’t write it off completely. Forecasts can change, and this area tends not to stay this flat for long.
We’ve got a few fleeting moments where the wind cleans up, but the swell is just too weak to get excited about. The only real glimmer of hope comes on Thursday afternoon, July 30th. A gentle offshore breeze from the NNW will clean things right up, and we’ll see a 3ft south swell with a 8-second period. The combined energy will be low at 97 – that’s weak stuff. It’ll be surfable, but it’s tiny and very ordinary. For a beginner, those tiny, clean waves might be a fun little session, but don’t expect to get your hair wet on anything with punch.
After that, we drift into a real flat spell. From Friday, July 31st, all the way through to the end of the outlook on Wednesday, August 12th, the swell is tiny – think 0.3ft to 2ft – and mostly wind-affected. Even with some clean, glassy mornings on Tuesday, August 4th and Wednesday, August 5th, the swell is barely registering (combined energy in the 20s and 30s). There’s just no ocean energy to work with. Honestly, with the onshore winds and weak swell, this setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer than for a paddle surfer on most days.
So, bottom line: hang the board up for a while. It’s a blank run. The only day worth even a glance is that Thursday afternoon, July 30th, for a quiet, clean little knee-slapper on a longboard.
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.
