The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this 16-day window for Neakahine Point is a tough one. The data shows a long stretch of nothing worth paddling out for, with a bunch of days where the wind is just junk and the waves are too small or messy to get excited about. We’re looking at a real dry spell, so don’t hold your breath.
The first real glimmer doesn’t show up until Thursday, July 24th morning. We’ve got a 4ft swell coming from the NW, with a period of 9 seconds. The wind is light and onshore, which is a bit of a bummer, but combined energy sits at 439 (moderate). It’s a marginal call, but it’s the first pulse of the whole run. By the afternoon, the swell drops to 3ft and the energy fades to 181 (weak), so it’s not a classic.
The only standout worth your time pops up a little later, on Saturday, July 26th afternoon. We get a 3ft SW groundswell with a period of 21 seconds – that’s proper long-period energy. Combined energy jumps to 710 (strong). The wind is gentle and cross-shore, which is a major positive. It’s clean, glassy, and the swell direction matches the optimum SW direction for this reef and point. Sure, it’s not a big wave, but that long period will wrap and shape up nicely. The water is a bit colder than normal at 56°, which is about 4° cooler than average for this time of year, so grab a hood if you’re sensitive. Crowds are possible here, but with the inconsistent nature of the break, it’s not a zoo.
After that, the rest of the window is a wash. The second week into early August sees a bit of NW windswell around 3ft to 5ft, but the period stays short (6 to 10 seconds), the wind is always cross-onshore or choppy, and the combined energy barely breaks 300. It’s choppy, messy, and not worth the drive. The 5ft spike on Wednesday, August 5th, with cross-onshore winds and 364 (moderate) energy, is still a poor surf call.
Honestly, if you’re in the area, save your energy for Saturday, July 26th afternoon. That’s your best shot. Otherwise, it’s a long wait.

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.
