Alright, Rusty here. Let's get into it.
The finder tells us there's literally no surf to get excited about for the entire 16-day period here at Nam O Point. It's a flat spell, plain and simple.
Looking at the guidance, Nam O Point is a beginner-friendly beach and jetty setup that’s consistent, and it’s exposed to a NE swell. Trouble is, the energy just never shows up. The biggest bump we see is on Sunday the 12th, with a 3 ft swell from the ENE, a period around 14 seconds, and combined energy of 357 (moderate). Water’s sitting at a warm 87°, which is about 2° above normal for this time of year – nothing too wild, just a touch on the warm side. The wind is glassy that afternoon, so if you were desperate for a paddle, that’s your only real window. But honestly, 3 ft with a long 14-second period on a beach/jetty break? It’s going to be walled up and tough to get a proper ride. Not worth rushing for.
After that Sunday, the bottom drops out. From Monday the 13th right through to Monday the 27th of July, the swell is tiny – mostly 0.7 ft to 1 ft, periods under 8 seconds, and energy readings barely cracking 30. That’s weak, wind-swell junk. Winds are light and often offshore, which would normally be a positive, but there’s simply no wave to work with. It’s a long, flat gap with no recommendations.
For a spot that’s normally consistent, this is a rare dead run. For the next couple of weeks, you’re better off leaving the board at home. Kite surfers might find a puff of wind on the 25th with those easterlies, but for paddle surfing, it’s a no-go.

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.
