Table - best surf conditions forecast for North Street over the next 16 days.
Alright, here’s how it shapes up for North Street. The run’s pretty quiet, mate. We’re looking at nothing good from Wednesday, July 8, all the way through Thursday, July 23—16 days with no real surf to speak of. Every report shows poor surf conditions, and the scores are all zeros. The biggest gap is the whole period; there’s no standout window.
For a spot that’s normally consistent, this is a dry spell. The combined swell energy is weak, never getting past about 138 (moderate energy) for a few hours, and usually way under 100. Swell heights run from 0.4m to 1.0m, directions from ENE to S, and periods are short—4 to 8 seconds. Winds are mostly cross-onshore, which keeps the surface bumpy.
The only half-decent window is Thursday morning, July 16. The wind goes glassy, and you get a 0.7m SSE swell with a 7-second period. The waves are surfable, but the conditions are very ordinary, and it’s still weak (combined energy of 68). Not exactly a day to write home about.
With such small swell and strong afternoon winds at a beach/jetty spot, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
It’s a quiet stretch for North Street. Things should pick up later, but not in this window. Forecasts change, so don’t lose hope.

Information about the North Street Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for North Street provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at North Street can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our North Street 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 (North Street) 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 North Street 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.
North Street is 2 km (1 miles) from Ocean City. If you plan a vacation in New Jersey, look for hotels and other accommodation in Ocean City. Ocean City has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
