Alright, let’s break it down in feet and miles per hour now.
Same story: Maghermore is struggling. This beginner spot is inconsistent and we’re looking at a long flat spell. Water temp is about normal for this time of year.
From now through late July, there’s no real surf. The first tiny pulse comes Tuesday 15th July afternoon – a 3ft NNE swell at 5 seconds, combined energy just 67 – that’s weak. Cross-shore winds, not clean.
Wednesday 16th July morning holds a 2ft NE swell, 5 seconds, 56 energy – still weak. After that it’s back to nothing. A 0.3ft south swell on Friday 18th July with a 14-second period is just a ripple.
There’s no standout day. The biggest (still small) wave is on the 15th afternoon, but the wind ruins it. For real surf, this stretch is a wash. Could change, but for now it’s a no-go.
Rusty.

Information about the Maghermore Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Maghermore provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Maghermore can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Maghermore 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 (Maghermore) 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 Maghermore 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.
Maghermore is 18 km (11 miles) from Arklow. If you plan a holiday in Wexford, look for hotels and other accommodation in Arklow. Arklow has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
