The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the table for the Wall over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it's a pretty quiet stretch ahead. The first proper chance to get wet doesn't show up until early next week, so we're looking at a bit of a dry spell from now until then. We've got a few days of nothing really worth paddling out for, then from Wednesday the 22nd onwards, we start to see a little more energy in the water, but it's nothing to write home about.
The standout window is shaping up to be around Tuesday the 28th. Early that morning, we've got some glassy conditions with the wind swinging offshore from the ENE and barely a breath of air. The swell is a small 4ft from the SSE. It's not a big swell, but with that clean, glassy surface, it'll be the best the place has looked all week. The combined energy is moderate, sitting at 150, so there's a bit of push behind it. For a summer session with a log or a funboard, that's your call.
Through the rest of the period, the swell hangs around in the 2ft to 4ft range, mostly from the SE. The winds are a bit of a mixed bag, often cross or cross-onshore, keeping things a bit choppy and ordinary. The water temperature is sitting at 63°, which is a bit colder than normal for this time of year, so don't leave the wettie at home.
Late in the run, from the 31st of July into the first week of August, the swell drops right off. We're looking at tiny 0.6ft to 1.0ft waves with very weak energy, so it's definitely a good time to check the forecast again before making the trip. The long-range outlook is one you'd keep an eye on, but it's not promising much right now.
Alright, that's the skinny from here. Keep your eyes on that Tuesday the 28th for a sneaky clean session.
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.
