The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this 16-day stretch for Nam O Point is a tough one. We’re looking at a long, flat spell with very little to get excited about for the first couple of weeks. The water is sitting at a warm 87°, which is about average for this time of year, so at least a dip won’t be a shock to the system.
The first solid recommendation doesn’t pop up until the morning of Thursday, July 31st. That’s a gap of over two weeks with nothing worth paddling out for. We’ve got tiny, weak swell and poor surf conditions day after day. The combined energy is laughable, usually in the single digits or low teens – a real bummer.
That Thursday morning, July 31st, is your best and only real shot. We’ve got a 1 ft swell coming from the ENE with a very long period of 14 seconds. That’s proper groundswell energy, and with a combined energy reading of 66 (moderate), it’s got some push. The wind will be glassy from the NNW, which is a major positive – it’ll be clean. The catch is that long period, 14-second swell can be real tricky at a beach/jetty setup like this, often breaking too straight. It’s not a beginner wave by any means.
The afternoon of the 31st looks a bit worse with a cross-onshore wind. So, mark your calendar for the morning of Thursday, July 31st. It’s not a massive swell, but it’s the only moment of real promise in this whole forecast.
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.
