Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for The Wall.

To be straight up with you, the next couple of weeks are looking pretty grim. We’ve got a solid run of tiny, weak surf that’s barely worth a look. From now through to the 5th of July, it’s all 1ft of short-period slop, mostly from the SE. The combined energy is just 20 to 26 (very weak). Wind is a mix of cross-off and glassy conditions on Sunday morning, so it’ll be clean, but there’s just no power to work with. This stretch is a washout.

Tuesday the 7th sees a bump in height, up to 5ft from the SE, but that’s a messy, short-period windswell (5 seconds) with onshore wind and rain. It’s ugly. The energy jumps to 114 (moderate) but the quality is poor.

Wednesday the 8th is the only faint glimmer in this whole outlook. The swell drops back to 4ft from the NE, period is still short at 6 seconds, but the combined energy climbs to 215 (moderate). The wind is light cross-on from the ENE at just 3 mph, so it’ll be a bit bumpy but not a total mess. This is about as good as it’s going to get. The Wall is exposed, so it’ll catch that NE swell, but don’t expect any kind of classic shape with that short period.

After that, it’s back into the doldrums. From Thursday the 9th all the way through to the 18th of July, the swell barely breaks 3ft, and most days it’s around 0.7ft to 1ft with combined energy dropping as low as 7 (very weak). There are a few glassy mornings, like on Sunday the 11th and Monday the 15th, but you’d be surfing ankle-biters. Tuesday the 8th remains the pick of a very poor bunch.

If you’re desperate, Wednesday morning the 8th is your window for a limp but clean-ish session at The Wall. Otherwise, it’s a long wait. Keep an eye on the charts – this area can change quick, but right now, it’s a flat spell.

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.
