The Lowdown
Alright, crew, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s happening at Nam O Point for the next two weeks, and I’m not gonna sugarcoat it – it’s looking pretty bleak.
The big picture is a long, flat spell with next to nothing. We’re looking at a gap of almost two weeks before anything even remotely rideable shows up. The first real chance you’ll get is Monday the 24th of August, and even that’s a small one.
From Sunday the 9th right through the week, the swell is tiny, often under 1ft, and the energy is super weak. Sunday morning shows a 1ft swell from the ENE with a 14-second period and a combined energy of 86. That’s a long-period groundswell, which is good for shape, but it’s just too small to do anything with. The wind is offshore, so it’d be clean, but there’s no push. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so nothing weird there.
The middle of the week, from the 12th to the 14th, has some glassy mornings with light winds from the WNW, but the swell is a pathetic 0.7ft. It’s dead flat, not surfable. The combined energy drops into the 20s. For a beach and jetty setup, that’s a total washout.
The weekend of the 15th and 16th is just as bad. A 1ft swell from the SE on Saturday morning with a 7-second period is just wind slop, not a wave. The 17th and 18th have a tiny bump to 2ft from the NNW on Monday afternoon, but the period is a terrible 5 seconds and the energy is only 21. That’s chop, not surf.
Finally, on Monday the 24th of August, we get a pulse. The morning brings a 2ft swell from the NE with an 11-second period and a combined energy of 128. That’s a moderate energy reading, and the period is decent. The wind is offshore from the WSW, so the conditions will be clean. This is the one standout in the whole 16-day window, but let’s be honest – 2ft is small. It’s surfable, but it’s not gonna get your heart racing. The spot is consistent, so it does have a heartbeat, but it’s a very faint one.
This is a long dry spell, and for this area, it’s not unusual to have a flat run like this. The forecasts can change, but for now, don’t hold your breath.
