Alright, Rusty here. Let's break down what's in store for the next couple of weeks. We've got waves rolling in right away, so no waiting.

It's all about Namotu Lefts – a solid reef break that's going to see a heap of action. Water temp is 78° right now, pretty normal for this time of year.

Let's go day by day.

Sunday July 5th starts clean. Swell is 4ft out of the SSE, 13-second period, with a light cross-off breeze. Energy is 453 – solid enough to get into a few. Good clean start.

Monday July 6th drops a bit to 3ft, still clean in the morning. Period shortens to 11 seconds, energy down to 224. Rideable but nothing special.

Tuesday July 7th is the sleeper hit. Swell is only 2ft, but that's a 15-second groundswell from the SW with offshore NE wind. Glassy conditions. Energy is weak at 220, but on a reef, that long-period SW swell will be beautifully lined up. A real standout for shape.

Wednesday July 8th turns big. Morning swell hits 8ft out of the SSW with an 18-second period – huge, with energy at 4369. This is expert-only. Afternoon hits 10ft and gets messy with cross-on wind – only for the brave.

Thursday July 9th holds at 10ft in the morning, onshore wind, energy over 3994. Still big, still rough.

Friday July 10th drops to 8ft in the morning, lighter cross-on wind, energy 1805. Afternoon gets choppy again. For experienced surfers only.

Saturday July 11th is 6ft, cross-shore wind, energy 1542. Not clean but rideable.

Sunday July 12th – this is the one. Morning is 6ft from the SSW, 12-second period, clean cross-off from the ESE, energy 1447. Conditions are listed as excellent for experienced surfers. That's the standout of the first week – good size, clean, and the reef loves it.

From Monday July 13th through Wednesday July 15th, the wind howls. Fresh cross-shore winds up to 22 mph wreck the 3ft to 4ft swell. Choppy, lumpy – better for kite surfing than paddling.

Thursday July 16th morning stays windy but clean cross-off, 4ft from the SSE, 10-second period. Afternoon cleans up with a light breeze – 3ft, getting glassy.

Friday July 17th is still breezy but clean in the morning at 3ft. Afternoon sees a 5ft swell from the S, cross-off, energy 1130 – some waves to be had.

Saturday July 18th is the second-week standout. Morning brings 7ft from the SSE, 12-second period, gentle cross-off, clean – energy 2081. Afternoon stays clean at 7ft with a light offshore from the N at 1795. Excellent for experienced surfers.

Sunday July 19th morning has 7ft from the SE but only 8-second period – energy 1431, a bit jumbled. But the afternoon goes glassy – flat calm, 7ft SE swell. That's a rare glassy moment, even with short period.

Monday July 20th drops to 3ft, clean in the morning. A mellow end.

Best on offer: Tuesday July 7th for the tiny-but-perfect long-period SW swell with offshore winds, and Sunday July 12th morning for the clean 6ft with cross-off wind. Saturday July 18th is a close second-week standout for size and clean conditions.

Crowds can pop up at Namotu Lefts, but with the size and wind windows, you might find some quiet moments. This spot is fairly consistent, so keep checking the swell.

That's the word.

Information about the Namotu Lefts Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Namotu Lefts provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Namotu Lefts can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Namotu Lefts 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 (Namotu Lefts) 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 Namotu Lefts 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.
