The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it. Looking over the whole 16-day window for Nam O Point, it’s a real slow burn. Honestly, the first week is a total write-off. From now through to September 11th, you are looking at a stretch of flat to tiny surf with no real energy. The combined energy is barely registering, with values mostly in the single digits or teens (11, 22, 20). It’s not worth even checking the water. There’s a bit of a gap until we see something worthwhile.
Things finally start stirring around September 12th. That Saturday morning, we’ve got a pulse of 4ft swell from the ENE, period of 7 seconds, and with glassy conditions, it’ll be rideable. The combined energy jumps to 208 (moderate wave energy). It’s still pretty small but clean. The water temp is sitting at 86°F with a 1°F anomaly, which is right about average for the time of year in these parts.
The standout window is shaping up for the morning of Tuesday, September 15th, and especially the morning of Wednesday, September 16th. On Tuesday morning, we get 4ft from the NNW with light offshore cross-off wind from the NW. It’ll be clean and the energy is solid at 369 (moderate). But the real highlight is Wednesday the 16th morning: a solid 6ft swell from the NE with a 9-second period and clean conditions thanks to a light offshore. The combined energy is pumping hard at 874 (strong wave energy). That’s the best on offer, no question. Wednesday afternoon gets a massive 12ft from the north with a 10-second period, but that one is for experts only – too big for most, and the cross-wind will make it messy. The breezy and bigger conditions on Wednesday afternoon are more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
After that, it drops back down by Thursday the 17th morning with 4ft from the ENE and clean again (energy 284), then fades into tiny stuff by the 19th. So, you’ve got a good run from the 12th to the 17th, but Wednesday the 16th morning is your best bet. Crowds are sometimes around here, so keep that in mind for the good days.
Alright, that’s the picture. Rusty out.

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.

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.
