Table - best surf conditions forecast for Nam O Point over the next 16 days.
The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get into this. There’s a slow start, with no real surf on offer for the first few days. The first session worth paddlin’ for is Wednesday morning.
Water temp is about 87°, which is just a hair warmer than normal for this time of year.
The clear standout is Wednesday, 2nd September. That morning, Nam O Point is lookin’ at a 1.8m swell out of the NNW, with a short period of 7 seconds. The wind is light from the W, cross-off, so the waves should be clean. The combined swell energy is a hefty 517 (strong wave energy), so there’s plenty of push. This is the best call of the whole window. The swell direction is a bit off the optimum for this spot, which wants NE, but the power and glassy conditions make it worth a look. With that size, it’s for the experienced crew only. And crowds are possible here, so be ready to share.
The day before, Tuesday, 1st September, has a decent afternoon session with 1.4m from the NNW, 7-second period, and offshore wind from the WSW at 10 km/h. Combined energy is 201 (moderate wave energy). It’s a solid warm-up but not the main event.
After that Wednesday peak, it drops off hard. The rest of the first week is small and poor, with choppy winds and weak energy.
The second week is mostly flat, with small, weak swells and onshore or cross-onshore winds. The energy values are low, mostly under 100, and the conditions are poor. Nothin’ to get excited about.
So, if you’re gonna go, make it Wednesday, 2nd September, for the morning. That’s your best bet. The rest is a bit of a dud.

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.
