Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for JT Flemming over the next couple of weeks.
Well, I gotta be straight with you – this is a tough one. The whole 16-day window is a bit of a dud for JT Flemming. There’s no good surf on offer at all. The break is a point that *rarely breaks*, and this forecast is proving that.
From Wednesday afternoon, July 8th, all the way through to Thursday afternoon, July 23rd, every single session is marked as “poor surf conditions.” The wind is locked in from the ENE, smacking the wave face with a cross-shore breeze the whole time. That’s a fresh 15 to 22 mph wind, kicking up a lumpy cross-chop every day. Just not what you want on a point break.
The swell coming in is mostly from the ENE or NE, which is not the optimum NNW direction for this spot. Swell heights bounce around between 5 ft and 8 ft, and the periods are short, mostly 6 to 9 seconds, so it’s weak, onshore wind-swell, not a proper groundswell. The combined energy numbers are mostly in the moderate range, but it doesn’t matter because the wind just ruins it.
Even the water temp is average for this time of year at 79°F. Nothing to get excited about.
There is one oddball on Tuesday afternoon, July 21st, with a tiny 2 ft swell but a very long period of 17 seconds and moderate energy. But even then, the wind is still cross-shore at 15 mph, and the direction is ENE, not NNW. It’s still a no-go.
So, that’s the story. A blank run of 16 days. For a spot like this that rarely breaks, it’s not totally surprising. Forecasts can change, but right now, I wouldn’t even bother waxing the board. Save your energy.
Rusty.

Information about the JT Flemming Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for JT Flemming provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at JT Flemming can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our JT Flemming 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 (JT Flemming) 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 JT Flemming 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.
JT Flemming is 21 km (13 miles) from Wailuku. If you plan a vacation in Maui, look for hotels and other accommodation in Wailuku. Wailuku has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
