The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it for our local stretch.
First up, the water’s sitting at a balmy 87°F – a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so you can leave the thick wetsuit at home.
We’re looking at a slow start, I won’t lie. The first proper recommendation doesn’t kick in until Sunday the 26th of July, so there’s a couple of days of flat or junk to sit through. Sunday morning, Nam O Point (Da Nang) is showing a small 2ft pulse from the ENE with a solid 13-second period. The wind is glassy, dead calm, and that’s a major positive. You’ll be dodging a few shoulders, but it’ll be clean. The combined energy is moderate (160), so there’s a bit of push behind it. Sunday afternoon gets a little bigger at 3ft from the same direction, but watch for those afternoon t-storms and onshore wind.
Monday the 27th of July is another early morning glass-off, with 2ft of ENE swell, period dropping to 10 seconds. It’s small, but clean. The energy is weak (68), so it’s a longboard or a funboard kind of session.
Now, the real standout for this whole outlook is a solid week and a half away, but it’s worth keeping an eye on. Thursday the 6th of August and Friday the 7th of August are looking like the best on offer. Thursday morning brings 2ft from the ENE but with a very long period of 20 seconds, and good offshore wind from the WSW at 6 mph. The combined energy jumps to a solid moderate level (226). Thursday afternoon goes glassy, dead calm, with 2ft of that same long-period groundswell, energy hitting 311. Friday the 7th of August is also clean, with 2ft in the morning (offshore wind, 273 energy) and glassy conditions in the afternoon. Keep in mind that long-period swell like this (over 15 seconds) can be a bit straight at a beach/jetty setup like Nam O, so it might be a bit more fun if you can find a bit of a bank or a corner. This is promising, but it’s a long-range call, so don’t book the day off work just yet.
The rest of the period is pretty much small, weak, or onshore junk. Nothing worth paddling out for until that early August window.
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.
Nam O Point is 14 km (9 miles) from Da Nang. If you plan a holiday in Da Nang, look for hotels and other accommodation in Da Nang. Da Nang has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
