The Lowdown
Alright mate, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what’s cooking for this stretch.
To be straight with you, this is a grim run. We’ve got a solid 16 days on the calendar, but honestly, there's nothing worth paddling out for. The whole period is a flat spell, with no proper swell on the horizon. For the next two and a half weeks, the best we see is tiny dribbles, never cracking even 2 feet. It’s a long, quiet stretch with no standouts at all.
We start on Monday the 10th with a tiny 2 ft NW windswell at Nam O Point, but the period is a short 5 seconds and it’s only got weak energy (28). The water temp is sitting at a warm 86°, which is about average for this time of year. The wind is light offshore in the mornings at times, which would keep it clean, but there's just no power behind it. By Tuesday morning the 11th, it drops to a measly 0.3 ft, and it stays that small for days. The glassy mornings are nice to look at, not to surf.
A little bump shows up around the 22nd and 23rd with 1 ft swells and energy creeping into the 20s and 30s (max 37), but again, we’re talking knee-high maximum, with short periods around 7 seconds. A few mornings have glass or light offshore winds, which would make it look pretty, but you’d be fighting for a ripple, not a wave. It’s a beach/jetty setup here and it is consistent, but there’s nothing to be consistent about. It’s not even worth mentioning the crowd profile, because nobody will be out.
If you’re a kiter, maybe you can get some use out of the light breezes, but for us surfers, this is a write-off. A blank run like this is unusual, but sometimes the ocean just shuts down—forecasts can change, so keep an eye on it, but for now, don’t get your hopes up.
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.
