The Lowdown
Hey, Rusty here. Let’s talk about the surf at Nam O Point.
First off, the next week is basically flat. From Sunday 26 July through to Wednesday 5 August, we’re looking at tiny surf—mostly under 2 ft—with a mix of light cross-shore breezes and some glassy mornings that just don’t have enough energy. Combined energy readings stay low, mostly below 25 (weak). A few glassy moments on Monday and Thursday mornings are clean but there’s nothing to ride. That’s over a week of nothing worth getting wet for.
Then, things perk up. Wednesday 5 August afternoon shows a pulse: 1 ft from the ENE at a very long 17-second period (groundswell), combined energy at 59 (still weak). Glassy conditions make it surfable but ordinary. Thursday 6 August stays glassy with the swell bumping to 2 ft, ENE, 17 secs, and energy climbing to 179 (moderate). Still small, but cleaner.
The real standout window opens Friday 7 August and runs through Monday 10 August. Friday morning brings 2 ft ENE groundswell (16 secs) with clean offshore WSW breeze at 6 mph—combined energy 238 (moderate). That’s proper lines at this beach/jetty setup. By Friday afternoon it goes glassy with the swell at 3 ft and energy at 322 (moderate). Lovely.
Saturday 8 August gets even better: 3 ft ENE, 17–18 secs, glassy in the afternoon, combined energy hitting 616 in the PM (strong). That long-period groundswell will wrap in nicely, and the glassy finish is a beauty.
Sunday 9 August and Monday 10 August are the peak: 4–4 ft ENE, 18 sec period, steady offshore WSW at 9 mph, and combined energy readings of 943 and 853 (strong to very strong). The wind stays clean offshore, giving you some of the best shaped waves of the whole outlook. Water temp’s about average for this time of year.
Nam O Point is a consistent break and can get crowded sometimes, so expect company during this run. The ENE swell matches the optimum NE direction well, so it’ll be lined up.
Crowds are likely, but the quality’s worth it. Mark your calendar.
Rusty.

Information about the Nam O Point Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Nam O Point provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Nam O Point can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Nam O Point 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 (Nam O Point) 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 Nam O Point 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.
Nam O Point is 14 km (9 miles) from Da Nang. If you plan a holiday in Da Nang, look for hotels and other accommodation in Da Nang. Da Nang has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
