Hey, Rusty here. Horseneck Beach is lookin’ at a long, flat spell before a little pulse shows up—but it’s not gonna set the world on fire.

The water’s running about 71° – that’s 5° warmer than usual, so you’ll be comfortable even if the waves aren’t.

First up, from Tuesday 7 July right through to Friday 17 July, it’s pretty much all poor surf conditions. Swell heights barely scrape 3 ft, mostly under 2 ft, with short periods and messy winds—cross-shore, cross-on, onshore, you name it. The combined energy stays well under 100 (weak) most days, so you’re not missing much. A few afternoons clean up (like Friday 10 July afternoon with a light cross-off breeze), but the groundswell’s tiny at 2 ft from the SW. Not worth paddling out for.

Then we get a slight glimmer on Saturday 18 July morning. Swell builds to 5 ft from the S at 9 seconds – moderate energy (290). It’s still cross-shore with a light breeze, so the surface could be okay, but the wave comment says “marginal surf forecast or questionable tide conditions.” Later that afternoon the swell jumps to 6 ft from the SSW (9s, strong energy at 505), but with a cross-on wind it’ll be choppy and poor.

Sunday 19 July morning is similar – 5 ft S, 9s, marginal (347 energy) and light cross-on breeze. Afternoon sees 5 ft SSW (10s, 454 energy) but again cross-on. The best of the bunch is probably Saturday morning, but it’s still a gamble.

Monday 20 July offers some size – 4 ft morning, 5 ft afternoon – but the wind stays cross-on and the surf is rated poor. Tuesday 21 July drops off quickly, and from there it’s back to ankle-biters.

So the standout? If you’re desperate, hit Horseneck on Saturday 18 July morning for a chance at clean-ish 5 ft S swell. But honestly, this stretch is mostly flat or sloppy. Keep an eye on it – forecasts can change, but right now it’s a quiet window.

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.
