The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it for The Wall. I’ve looked over the charts and to be honest, it’s a pretty bleak run we’ve got lined up. The forecast is a long stretch of quiet conditions with very little to get excited about.
Right from the get-go, we’re looking at a major dry spell. The first record we’ve got is for Sunday the 26th of July, but the surf is flat and messy. The swell coming in is only 3ft from the ESE but with a short period, combined wave energy is weak, and the water temperature is a real shocker at 61°, which is a whopping 5° colder than normal for this time of year so you'll be needing a thick suit. The wind is light and onshore, so conditions are poor.
This pattern basically sets the tone. From Sunday afternoon right through to Wednesday the 5th of August, there’s no surf worth paddling out for. We’re looking at a solid gap of about a week with nothing on offer. The swell stays small, generally around 1–3ft, with periods that are mostly short and weak. The winds are cross-onshore or onshore, chopping everything up. Even the water temp anomaly data runs out in the records, so conditions are just flat and unappealing.
There is a tiny hiccup of slightly bigger energy on Thursday the 6th of August, where the combined energy bumps up and swell height hits 4ft to 5ft. But even then, it’s a short-period swell with onshore winds, so it’s going to be a messy, blown-out affair. Not the kind of day to get stoked about.
After that, it’s right back to the same old story of tiny swell and poor wind right through to Monday the 10th of August. There’s just no standout window in this 16-day outlook. For beginners, any swell over 5ft is too much, but we never even get close to that consistently; the bigger days are reserved for experts only in terms of difficulty, but the quality is so poor it's not suitable for anyone.
To be honest, if you’re after a paddle, this stretch is a write-off. The break is a consistent spot, so it *tends not to stay poor for long*, and forecasts can change, but right now the charts are blank for the foreseeable future. If this keeps up, and with the wind and swell direction, the setup at this beach-and-reef spot looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. Keep an eye on it, but for now, don’t bother waxing up.
Stay hopeful,
Rusty

Information about the The Wall Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for The Wall provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at The Wall can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our The Wall 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 (The Wall) 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 The Wall 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.
The Wall is 4 km (2 miles) from Hampton. If you plan a vacation in New Hampshire, look for hotels and other accommodation in Hampton. Hampton has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
