The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, let's have a look at what's on offer.
Honestly, it’s a pretty quiet outlook for The Wall over the next couple of weeks. There's a bit of a wait for anything worth paddling out for, with the first few days being pretty ordinary. The only real standout window is Thursday the 3rd of September, and even that’s a morning-only deal.
The best chance we get is first thing Thursday morning, September 3rd. The Wall will have a clean, surfable 4ft swell wrapping in from the SSE. The wind is glassy at 3 mph from the WSW, which will make the surface smooth as butter. The wave energy is weak though, only clocking in at (91), so don't expect a lot of push. It's small and clean, not powerful. The water temp is pretty average for this time of year.
After that morning, things go downhill fast. Thursday afternoon turns into a light cross-onshore mess with 3ft, and from there it's a long stretch of poor conditions. We see a bump in swell on Sunday the 6th, with 5ft from the ENE, but the cross-onshore winds at 12 mph will chop it up badly, and the wave energy is moderate (210). That said, a 5ft swell with that kind of energy is surfable but ugly. Not one to get excited about.
There’s really nothing else to recommend after the 3rd. The surf dips back down to tiny, messy, or onshore junk for the rest of the run. There are small clean windows on the 8th and 13th with offshore winds, but the swell is a paltry 1.0ft to 2ft – not enough to ride.
So, to be honest, it's a one-horse show. Get out early Thursday the 3rd for a glassy, albeit small, session at The Wall, and then probably spend the rest of the fortnight on the beach.
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.
