The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, and I'm lookin' at Horseneck Beach for the next couple of weeks, and I gotta be honest – it's flat. Real flat.
For the first 13 days, forget about it. The surf is a total no-show. The water temperature is about what you'd expect for this time of year, so no weirdness there.
The first crack at something comes Sunday, September 20th. We finally see a little 4-foot swell push in from the SSW, but it's nothing special. The energy is there, just enough to mess around, but conditions are just ordinary. The morning on the 20th will be your best look with a clean offshore wind out of the NNW. The swell is short-period junk, so don't expect any power, just some lumpy, rideable walls.
Outside of that, the whole window is a washout. With the wind howling and the surf being so weak, this spot looks way more fun for a kite than a paddle. It's a beach break that just can't get it together. Keep an eye on it, but for now, don't hold your breath.
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.
