Alright, let's get into it.
Look, I gotta be straight with you – Horseneck Beach is going through a proper flat spell right now. We’re looking at a solid stretch of days where the waves are just not doing anything for us. From Sunday the 5th all the way through to about Thursday the 17th, it's basically a write-off. We’re talking tiny little knee-high slop at best, and the wind is mostly from the wrong direction or just too strong. The energy is weak, with combined swell readings barely getting into double digits most of those days. Save your wax for later.
Now, you might start seeing something building around the weekend of the 18th and into Monday the 20th. There’s a little pulse of swell arriving Saturday the 18th, with waist to maybe chest-high sets (5 ft) from the SSW, but the wind is out of the SW at 18 mph, making it lumpy and cross-onshore. The energy jumps up to a moderate 237, but it’s not clean.
The one window that's worth nodding at, even if it’s a bit of a gamble, is Sunday the 19th. That morning we see the peak of the run – head-high to slightly overhead (6 ft) from the SSW, with a period of 9 seconds giving it some push. The combined energy is strong at 455. And here’s the kicker: the wind is light, from the WSW at just 10 mph, keeping it fairly cross-shore with only a slight chop. It’s a beach break, so the longish period might make it a little straight, but if you get a sandbar working, it could be fun. It’s only rated as marginal, so go in with expectations low, but it’s the best we’ve got on offer. Water temp is about 72°, which feels much warmer than normal for this time of year. The crowds at Horseneck can be a thing, so expect some company if the waves show.
After that Sunday, the swell fades quickly into Monday the 20th – back to smaller, mediocre stuff. So, really, if you’re jonesing, circle that Sunday 19th on the calendar. It’s a long-range call so don’t bet the farm on it, but it’s the only time in the next two weeks I’d even bother checking the tide chart.

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.
