The Lowdown
Alright, grab your board and wax, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's on the menu for Rocky Point.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – the next couple of weeks are looking pretty flat. We’ve got a long stretch of nothing much happening, with tiny, weak swell and a cross-shore wind that's just gonna chop things up. From Sunday the 2nd through to Saturday the 15th of August, it's a whole lot of waiting. The waves are tiny, mostly around 0.7 ft to 1 ft, and the wind is either a cross or a cross-off from the ENE or E. It's clean-ish on a few mornings, but there's just no power behind it. The combined swell energy is a sad little whisper, mostly under 100. It's not surfable, plain and simple.
Then, there's a little flicker of hope. On Sunday the 16th, the swell bumps up to 2 ft from the west, with a period around 14 seconds. The combined energy climbs to 165. Still small, but it’s a start. The wind is a clean cross-off from the east, so the surface will be smooth. It's not a standout, but it's the first sign of life.
Now, if you're patient, the real deal is shaping up for Monday the 17th of August. That's our best bet. The swell pushes up to 3 ft in the morning, then 3 ft in the afternoon, both from the WNW. The period is a solid 15 seconds, so that's a proper groundswell with some real push. The combined energy jumps to 298 then 365 – that's genuine moderate wave energy, finally. And the wind is off the land, light to gentle from the ESE. That means clean, glassy lines. Rocky Point is a reef break, so it'll handle that long-period west swell well, offering up some nice, lined-up waves. It's a consistent spot, so there should be a few to pick from. It's not huge, but it's the best quality we've seen in the whole outlook. Crowds are possible here, so don't be surprised if you're not alone.
The water temp is about 80°F, which is normal for this time of year, so no wetsuit needed.
So, to sum it up: the first two weeks are a write-off. Save your energy for Monday the 17th. That's the day to be out at Rocky Point.

Information about the Rocky Point Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Rocky Point provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Rocky Point can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Rocky 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 (Rocky 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 Rocky 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.
Rocky Point is 18 km (11 miles) from Wahiawa. If you plan a vacation in Oahu, look for hotels and other accommodation in Wahiawa. Wahiawa has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
