The Lowdown
Right then, let’s take a look at what’s on offer for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a pretty quiet start. We’re looking at a long stretch of small, weak swell and mostly poor conditions. The first real chance of anything decent doesn’t show up until the morning of Wednesday, 2nd September.
For most of this period, Neakahine Point is seeing tiny surf with a lot of cross-shore wind. The water temperature is 54°, which is 5° colder than usual for this time of year – that’s very unusual, so you’ll want a thick wetsuit.
The standout window is the morning of Wednesday, 2nd September. The swell bumps up to 6ft from the SW, but the period is a very short 7 seconds, so it’ll be a bit mushy and lack power. The real kicker here is the wind: light S winds, described as cross-offshore, making for clean conditions. The combined energy is strong at 594. This is a reef and point break, so that short period will be less of a problem than at a beach break. It’s an inconsistent spot, so don’t expect non-stop waves. Crowds are sometimes a thing here.
The afternoon of the 4th September also has a bit of potential, with 6ft swell from the WNW and light westerly onshore wind, but it’s not as clean as that Wednesday morning. The morning of the 4th has 6ft from the same direction but a moderate S breeze making it choppy.
So, for the whole 16-day window, the best bet is the morning of Wednesday, 2nd September at Neakahine Point. It’s not perfect, but it’s the only time the wind and swell really line up for a decent session. After that, it’s a slow fade back into small stuff.

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.
