The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s break down this Neakahine Point forecast in feet and knots. It’s a slow burner, so don’t expect to get wet right away.
The first few days are a total bust. Nothing happening until we get to the morning of Wednesday the 11th. That’s the day we’ve been waiting for. The swell comes up to about 5ft from the NW with a 9-second period. The combined energy reads 657, which is a solid moderate push. The best part? The wind goes glassy. That means the surface will be clean as a whistle. This is your best shot of the whole 16-day window. The direction isn’t perfect for the spot, but with zero wind, you’ll take it.
The next morning, Saturday the 12th, is also a good look. The wind is dead calm again, glassy, with a 4ft swell from the WNW. The energy is 473. It’s a little smaller than Wednesday, but the swell direction is a better fit for the break. Another solid option.
After that, the window closes fast. Sunday morning the 13th has a small 2ft, long-period 14-second groundswell from the SW and glassy conditions. The energy is down to 338. Long-period swells like this favour the reef and point setup, so it might have some nice lines, but it’ll be inconsistent. From there, it’s a long stretch of poor or marginal surf through the second week. The wind is never on your side, and the quality drops off.
So, bottom line: the morning of Wednesday the 11th is the one to circle. That glassy 5ft NW swell is the real deal. The Saturday morning the 12th is a close second. Keep in mind, Neakahine Point is an inconsistent spot, so a long run of flat days is normal here. Don’t sweat it.
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.
