The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what Horseneck Beach has got cookin' for us over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – this is a tough stretch. The whole 16-day window is pretty much a flat spell. There's a tiny bump of energy coming through, but it's weak and the wind just won't cooperate for anything decent. You're looking at a long gap of nada, so don't hold your breath.
Starting on Wednesday the 9th, we've got some tiny 2ft swell from the SSW with a pathetic period of 4 seconds. That's just wind chop, and with a 16 mph cross-on wind, it's gonna be a mess. The combined energy is a measly 23 (weak), so there's nothing there to get excited about.
Thursday the 10th has a bit more size, hitting 5ft from the SSW, but it's still a short 7-second period and the cross-shore wind will chop it up into a crumbly, ugly mess. Not worth paddling out for.
Friday morning the 11th sees the wind swing offshore from the NNW at 9 mph, which would normally be great news, but the swell is only 2ft. It'll be clean but tiny – a knee-high dribbler. The afternoon turns cross-shore, and that little bit of energy fades.
From Saturday the 12th right through to the end of the forecast on September 24th, it's all poor surf conditions. We're talking ankle-snappers at best, with either onshore winds or just nothing on offer. The water temp is sitting at a pretty average 70°, which is normal for this time of year.
There is one standout here, but only if you're desperate for a window of clean conditions. Friday morning, September 11th, at Horseneck Beach. The offshore wind from the NNW will make it glassy, and it'll be your only shot at a clean wave. But honestly, with only 2ft of weak swell (combined energy of 35) and a short 6-second period, don't expect much. It's a beginner-friendly sandbar, and it's fairly consistent, so you might get a few knee-high rollers. Just don't drive too far for it.
The takeaway? This is a blank run, plain and simple. The forecasts can always change, but right now, you're better off finding something else to do.
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.

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.
