The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking at Nam O Point over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – the next week and a half is a tough watch. The first few days are a total write-off. We’re looking at tiny, wind-affected dribble. Friday the 24th and Saturday the 25th are flat with poor conditions, and the swell is practically non-existent. Sunday the 26th morning shows a pulse of long-period groundswell (16 seconds) from the NE, with a combined energy of (111). The water temp is about average for this time of year. It’s glassy, which is a treat, but the swell is only 1ft. It’s rideable but very ordinary. Stay patient.
We’ve got a nasty gap here. After Sunday, the surf drops back to nothing for days. Monday the 27th has a fleeting window of glassy 2ft swell with (71) energy, but it’s weak. Tuesday through to the end of the month are all poor surf conditions with barely a ripple. Then the first few days of August are the same story – tiny, messy waves. It’s a real flat spell.
Now, hold on to your wetsuits, because things start to get interesting around the 1-week mark. Monday the 3rd of August morning brings a jump in energy. We’ve got 3ft swell from the ENE with a 10-second period, and it’s glassy. The combined energy is (121). That’s a solid step up from the flatness, and the clean conditions make it the best option so far. Tuesday the 4th of August holds similar promise with glassy 2ft waves all day – (77) energy in the morning, (65) in the afternoon. Still small, but clean.
But the real standout – the one that I’m getting a bit excited about – is the tail end of the forecast. Thursday the 6th of August into Friday the 7th, we start seeing a nice long-period groundswell build. By Friday morning, we’ve got 2ft swell from the ENE with a 16-second period and (154) energy, and it’s glassy. Then Saturday the 8th of August morning is the highlight. That’s when we get 2ft from the ENE, a 17-second period, (270) energy, and offshore winds from the W at 6 mph. The water will be clean. This is the best surf on offer. It’s not a big day, but the quality and clean conditions will make it the pick of the bunch. For a beach/jetty setup, that long period could make it a bit straight, but with the offshore wind, it should be fun.
Because the combined energy is just a three-digit number, we’re talking moderate energy, not a massive swell. This is a session for a longboard or a fish, not a step-up. The crowds are listed as "sometimes" here, so you might have a few others out, but it won’t be a zoo. For a beach/jetty, the long period (17 seconds) and the NE direction mean the waves will have some grunt but could close out if you’re not in the right spot. Still, it’s the best window we’ve got in a very lean forecast.
Rusty.

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.
