Alright, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s cooking for Ogunquit Beach over the next couple of weeks. To be straight with you, it’s a tough stretch. We’re starting off with a real quiet period, and the first couple of days are basically a write-off for surfing. From Saturday July 4th through to Tuesday July 8th, we’ve got tiny, weak swells and poor conditions, so don’t bother rushing out.
There’s a little pulse that sneaks in on Wednesday July 8th. Not huge, but it’s the best we’ll see for a while. Ogunquit Beach picks up a 5ft swell from the east, with a period of 8 seconds, and the wind turns light offshore from the north on the morning. That means clean, workable waves, and the energy is moderate at 294. It’s a short-period swell so it’ll be a bit fat and sectiony, but it’s the only real window in the first week.
After that, the surf drops off hard again. From Thursday July 9th right through to the end of the second week, we’re stuck with tiny, weak swells under 3ft, and the wind usually has some cross or onshore component. The water temp is sitting at 63°, which is about average for the time of year. No major standout sessions in the long range.
The one other glimmer is Tuesday July 14th afternoon. We get a clean offshore breeze from the west, and the swell bumps up to 3ft from the southeast, period 8 seconds. It’s small but glassy – the combined energy is weak at 99, so don’t expect much push. It’s just a nice, clean little fumble for a longboard or a foamy. That’s about it, gang.
Keep your eye on Wednesday July 15th afternoon too – same story, offshore wind, 3ft swell, clean but tiny. Nothing that’ll get the heart racing.
Honestly, if you’re desperate for a paddle, Wednesday July 8th morning is your best bet. Beyond that, it’s mostly a waiting game. The breaks are inconsistent here at the best of times, so this kind of blank run isn’t unusual.
Rusty.

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 Ogunquit Beach 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.
