The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you: the next 16 days are a real struggle for Nam O Point. The forecast is calling it poor surf conditions across the entire run, and I’m not seeing a single window that’s worth paddling out for. The overall pattern is flat and lifeless, with tiny swell and light winds that are mostly onshore or cross-onshore, which just messes up what little bump there is.
We’re starting off on Sunday, July 19, with a tiny 1 ft swell from the ESE at a short 5-second period. The combined energy is weak (13), and with a light breeze from the ENE, it’s just not happening. The water temp is sitting at 87°, which is about average for this time of year, but that’s about the only thing normal here.
From Monday, July 20, through the end of the month, we’ve got a long stretch of nothing. Mornings sometimes go glassy, like on Monday the 20th (WNW 3 mph, glassy) or Tuesday the 21st (WNW 3 mph, glassy), but the swell is a joke—0.7 ft to 1 ft range, period stuck at 4-5 seconds, and energy readings in the single digits. That’s not surf, that’s a lake. The afternoons are all cross-onshore or onshore, with wind picking up to 6-12 mph, making it choppy and messy.
There’s a small bump in the evening of Thursday, July 30, when the swell climbs to 2 ft from the ENE at 13 seconds, with energy hitting 149—that’s moderate energy. But it’s marked as poor surf conditions, and the wind is onshore from the NE at 6 mph. The direction is from the ENE, which is not the optimum NE direction for this spot, so it’s not really lining up. This is a beach/jetty setup, so the long period (13 seconds) might actually make it too straight and fast for a beach break. Not a goer.
By Friday, August 1, we’re back to flatness. There’s a brief moment on Saturday, August 1, morning with glassy conditions and no wind, but the swell is a pathetic 1 ft from the SE at 6 seconds. Energy is a measly 9. On Monday, August 3, the morning goes glassy again with a 0.3 ft swell from the E at 19 seconds—very long period—but with energy at just 16, it’s a ghost wave. Not worth the drive.
Look, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Nam O Point is a consistent spot, so it tends not to stay this poor for long. Forecasts can change. But for now, don’t bother loading the board. This is a blank run. Hang tight, and check back in a week.
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.
