Table - best surf conditions forecast for Crow Point over the next 16 days.
Alright, let’s look at what we’ve got here. The whole 16-day stretch is a bit of a write-off, to be honest. There’s just no decent surf to get excited about. There's a gap right from the start that lasts pretty much the whole run, with nothing rideable.
For Crow Point, it’s a point break that only rarely breaks anyway, so this kind of blank run is pretty normal for the spot. It’s sheltered and wants the optimum swell from the west, but even when the swell direction is right, the size is tiny. We’re looking at swells mostly around 0.3 ft to 2 ft for the first couple of weeks, with energy readings that are super weak, down in single or low double digits. That's barely a ripple.
The water temperature here is sitting at 63.5°F, which is about 3.9°F above the long-term average. That’s a solid anomaly, much warmer than usual for this time of year, so the water feels good if you’re in it, but there’s nothing to ride.
Wind does go offshore from the north-east from time to time, like Saturday afternoon the 11th, but it’s on a 1.3 ft swell with an 8-second period and an energy of just 29. You’d be bobbing around, not surfing.
We finally see a bit of a pulse on Wednesday the 22nd, with the morning showing 4.9 ft from the west at 7 seconds and energy jumping to 230. That’s moderate energy, and the wind is a light cross-off from the east, so it’s clean. But it’s a short-period swell, and 4.9 ft is getting a bit big for beginners at a rarely-breaking point. The surfable wave comment says it’s "very ordinary conditions," and I agree. It’s the only thing that even registers a score of 1 out of 10, but it’s such a short window and the rest of that day and the following days are junk again. Thursday the 23rd has 3.3 ft with a fresh cross-off breeze, but the energy is dropping and the conditions are still poor.
Honestly, there are zero standout sessions here. Not one day makes me want to paddle out. If you’re desperate, maybe take a look at the morning of the 22nd, but keep expectations in the gutter. For a spot that barely wakes up, this is just one of those quiet periods we have to ride out. Forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a hard pass.

Information about the Crow Point Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Crow Point provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Crow Point can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Crow 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 (Crow 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 Crow 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.
Crow Point is 2 km (1 miles) from Appledore. If you plan a holiday in North Devon, look for hotels and other accommodation in Appledore. Appledore has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
