The Lowdown
Hey folks, Rusty here. Not gonna sugarcoat it – Nam O Point is looking pretty bleak for the next couple of weeks. Water's a balmy 87°F, which is dead normal for this time of year, so that's fine. The waves, though? Don't get your hopes up.
We're staring down a long dry run from Saturday 18 July all the way through Wednesday 29 July. Day after day of tiny, weak surf – most of it under 1 foot, with short-period windswell and cross-onshore chop. Not worth a second look.
Then on Thursday 30 July morning we get a brief reprieve. The wind goes glass – dead calm – and a tiny 1-foot groundswell rolls in from the ENE, with a 14-second period. That long period gives it a bit of push, but it's still ankle-to-knee-high. The combined energy is only 84, so it's weak. Still, if you're jonesing for a ride, that's the pick. Crowds are possible but unlikely given the size.
Friday 31 July morning is almost identical – another glassy start, 1-foot ENE groundswell at 13 seconds, energy 68. Surfable, but barely. After that, it's back to flatness and blown-out afternoons. By Saturday 1 August, we're back to nothing.
Bottom line: if you need a surf fix, aim for those two mornings at the end of July. Otherwise, save your energy – this is a long, quiet stretch. Rusty out.

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.
