The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here.
Looking at the full 16-day window for Neakahine Point, it’s a rough patch. Winds are almost always side-on or side-shore, messing up the surface. The swell is small and inconsistent for most of the run, and when the size does show up, the conditions aren’t playing ball.
The first real bump of energy comes around Thursday, August 6th. We’ve got a 7ft NW swell rolling in with a 10-second period. The combined energy is strong at 854. But the wind is only slightly offshore, and it’s still called “marginal” with questionable tide. For a spot that’s already inconsistent, you need everything to line up. It’s a maybe, but don’t get your hopes up.
The best bet in this whole stretch is Saturday, August 8th. Early morning, we’ve got a solid 7ft NW swell (period 10 sec) with a combined energy of 1029. That’s some serious juice. The wind is very light from the WSW, so it’s side-on, but the report says “marginal,” likely due to tide. Still, with that much size and energy, it’s the one to watch. This is for experts only – 7ft is big and powerful. Given it’s a reef and point setup, that long-period groundswell will wrap in, but expect it to be a little peaky. Crowds are *sometimes* an issue here, so you might have some company.
The water temp is about 58°F, which is roughly 1°F colder than average. It’s a little chilly, but nothing wild.
If you’re not a pro, I’d sit this whole 16 days out. The big swell is too big for beginners, and the small stuff is blown out. For the kite crew, that Wednesday afternoon on August 5th with 6ft NW and 12 mph side-on wind might be worth a look.
Hang in there, the forecasts can change, but for now, it’s a quiet run.
Rusty.

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