Table - best surf conditions forecast for Neakahine Point over the next 16 days.
Alright, this is Rusty, and I’ve got to be straight with you: the outlook for Neakahine Point over the next 16 days is a tough one. It’s a reef and point set-up that’s inconsistent, and for the vast majority of this period, the conditions are just not playing nice. We’re looking at a long stretch of poor surf, with a few days that are merely marginal. The water temperature is sitting at a very unusual 53°F, which is a massive 6°F colder than normal for this time of year – that’s a serious cold snap, so you’ll want a thick wetsuit if you’re even thinking about getting in.
The good news? There’s almost none. The forecast starts with a complete blank for the first five days. From Saturday, July 11th right through to Wednesday, July 15th, it’s all poor surf conditions with choppy, cross-onshore winds. The swell is tiny and weak, with the combined energy barely reaching 487 (moderate energy) on the 11th, but it’s paired with a 12 mph onshore wind, so it’s a total write-off.
We finally get a glimmer of something on Thursday, July 16th. The swell bumps up to 5 ft from the WNW with a short 8-second period, and the combined energy is strong at 607. The wind is a light cross-onshore breeze, so it’s still not clean, but it’s the best of a bad bunch. The rating says marginal, and that’s about right. It’s a beginner-friendly size, but the short period will make it mushy and a bit messy. This is the only day that could be worth a look, but don’t expect any magic.
The rest of the period is a washout. There’s a prolonged gap from the 12th all the way through to the 16th where there’s nothing recommended at all. After that, it’s a mix of marginal and poor calls with cross-shore winds and choppy seas. The swell stays small, under 4 ft, and the wind never gets truly offshore. The energy never drops below 200 (weak to moderate), but it’s all wasted on poor conditions.
Honestly, for a break that’s already inconsistent, this 16-day run is a real bummer. If you’re desperate, the Thursday morning session on July 16th is your only real chance, but even then, it’s a gamble. The rest of the time, the wind and chop are just fighting any swell that shows up. It’s a tough stretch, but that’s how it goes sometimes.
