The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here with the intel. This stretch of the 16-day window points to one spot: Neakahine Point, a reef and point break that’s exposed to the southwest swell. It’s inconsistent and sometimes has a crowd, so be ready for that. The water’s at 60°F, spot on for this time of year.
The first little pulse is Monday morning, August 31st. We’re looking at a tiny 2ft swell from the southwest, long period of 15 seconds – that’s proper groundswell energy. Combined energy is moderate at 222. Wind is a light cross-on from the WNW, making it a marginal but surfable start.
The week gets messy. Wednesday September 2nd throws up a 6ft swell from the southwest, but with a short, weak period of 7 seconds and a strong 25 mph cross-southerly wind. A total mess. Energy is moderate at 575, but the conditions are poor.
Then we hit the gem. Friday morning, September 4th. The swell cleans up to 6ft from the WNW at 10 seconds, with a solid moderate energy of 671. The wind goes glassy – dead calm from the north at 3 mph. That’s offshore. The wave quality is looking very good. It’s a bit over 5ft, so it’s better for intermediate and up, but this is the standout session of the whole forecast.
Saturday morning, September 5th, offers a smaller, glassy 4ft from the WNW – energy at 379. A clean, fun session. Sunday morning, September 6th, is another glassy one, but it’s a tiny 2ft from the southwest with that 15-second period – energy at 300. Good for a longboard.
The second week is a mixed bag. The 10th of September has some marginal 5ft WNW swell with light cross-shore winds. The 12th of September afternoon sees a 6ft WNW swell with a 12-second period and light winds – energy ramps to 1049, which is solid. That’s a promising but less certain call a week and a half out. The 14th of September Monday morning is another glassy morning with a 4ft WNW swell at 8 seconds – energy 272. Clean but small.
The big winner: Friday morning, September 4th. Glassy, solid 6ft groundswell, and that reef/point setup will handle it sweet. The 12th of September afternoon is a good long-range watch. The rest? Small, choppy, or windy. Keep the board ready for that Friday.
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.
Neakahine Point is 51 km (32 miles) from Astoria. If you plan a vacation in North Oregon, look for hotels and other accommodation in Astoria. Astoria has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
