The Lowdown
G'day, I'm Rusty, and I've been poring over the charts for Nam O Point. Let's not sugarcoat it: the next couple of weeks are a tough watch for surfers. The 16-day outlook starts with a massive flat spell that runs for almost two weeks. There's just nothing doing. The wave energy is pathetic, sitting in the single digits (8) and low teens, with tiny, short-period slop that won't push a thing. It's a pretty normal quiet spell for this spot when the ocean just goes to sleep.
From Wednesday the 22nd right through to the start of August, we're seeing waves from a mere 0.3ft to 2ft, mostly with winds that are glassy or light, which is frustrating because the ocean is empty. There's a slight bump on the 30th and 31st with 2ft to 2ft waves, but with a short period (8 seconds) and weak combined energy (76 max), it's still not worth the effort. The water is sitting at a balmy 86°F, which is about 3°F warmer than usual for this time of year, so it's more like a warm bath than a surf session.
But hold on to your wetsuit. If we fast-forward to the second week of August, things change. Around Wednesday the 5th and Thursday the 6th, the models are lighting up with a long-period groundswell (17-19 seconds) out of the ENE. The combined energy surges into the hundreds: 189 on Wednesday morning, then up to 238 and 298 by Thursday. Wave heights will be in the 1ft to 2ft range. That long period means the wave quality goes up, though at a break like Nam O Point, a long-period groundswell can sometimes run a bit too straight on the beach setup. The wind forecast is sweet though: glassy conditions on Wednesday afternoon and Thursday afternoon, with a light offshore on Thursday morning. The models are calling for good surf conditions. Remember, this is a long-range call, so it's promising but not locked in. The standout window looks like Thursday the 6th of August, especially the afternoon with dead calm winds, 2ft ENE swell, and powerful energy (269). It won't be massive, but it'll be the cleanest and most fun waves in this whole outlook. If you can wait, that's your day.
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.
