The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s get into it.
Honestly, looking at the next two weeks, it’s a bit of a flat spell for Nam O Point. We’ve got a long stretch of small, weak, and mostly messy conditions before a few windows of something rideable pop up, particularly towards the end of the run. The best of the bunch is a standout on Monday afternoon, August 31st, but other than that, you’ll be picking through the leftovers.
Right now, through Sunday the 30th, the wave energy is tiny, with a combined energy reading of just 14 (very weak). The wind is cross-off, but there's nothing to push it around. Monday the 31st is where things get interesting. Monday afternoon brings a jump to a combined energy of 324 (moderate wave energy), with a 6ft swell from the NW and a clean, 9 mph offshore wind from the WSW. That’s the clear standout—a rare window of decent, clean waves at this jetty break. It’s not huge, but for the area, that’s the session to target.
After that, it’s a real struggle. Tuesday the 1st drops right off again, and we’re looking at a week of nothing but poor surf conditions right through to Sunday, September 7th. The wave energy stays below 100 for most of that (mostly weak), with a lot of cross-shore wind and tiny, short-period swell. There’s a glimmer on Thursday the 3rd, with a glassy morning, but the swell height is only 2ft and the energy is just 54, leaving waves that are barely surfable.
The second week is quiet. A little bump shows up around Monday the 14th with a 5ft NE swell and combined energy hitting 225 (moderate wave energy), but it’s flagged as marginal, and the winds are light and cross-shore. Still, it's more promising than the rest of that week, just keep your expectations in check as it’s a long way off.
The only real recommendation I can give is that Monday afternoon, August 31st. The water temp is about average for this time of year. For a beginner-friendly spot like Nam O Point, that 6ft with offshore winds is a clean, manageable size. Keep an eye on that one.
Rusty.

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.
