The Lowdown
Alright, I’ll break it down for you in feet and miles per hour.
To be straight with you, the next couple of weeks are looking lean around here. Crow Point is the only break on the radar, and it rarely breaks, which is pretty much what we’re seeing. The first real opportunity doesn’t show up until Thursday the 13th of August, and even then it’s only just surfable. You’ll have to sit through the first few days of the week with practically nothing.
Thursday the 13th morning is the first time we see something worthwhile. Swell is coming from the west-southwest at around 3ft with a solid 10-second period, which gives it a bit of shape for a point break like this. The wind is light from the NNW at about 10 mph, keeping it clean. The combined energy is moderate (184), so there’s a little push behind it. Just be aware it’s inconsistent by nature, so you’ll be waiting around for sets. Crowds are only sometimes an issue, but on a day like this with the only waves around, you might see a few others out.
After that, it’s a whole lot of nothing. The swell drops right off through the end of the second week. Conditions are mostly poor, with onshore or cross-shore winds and tiny waves. There is a brief moment on the morning of Wednesday the 19th of August where the wind goes glassy – light from the north-northeast – and the swell is around 2ft from the west, but it’s still a weak little 8-second period, and the combined energy is only 81. It’s clean, but there’s just not enough grunt to make it fun.
The standout, if you can call it that, is probably Thursday the 13th morning. That’s your best chance for a clean little wave, but don’t expect much. After that, it’s a long gap until Tuesday the 25th of August morning where we see a bump: 4ft from the west-southwest, 8-second period, and combined energy jumping to 252 (moderate). The wind is light from the east-northeast, and it’s clean. That’s promising, but it’s over a week and a half away, so treat it as a hopeful long-range call.
All up, this is a quiet run. The break is inconsistent at the best of times, so a blank spell like this isn’t unusual. Forecasts can always change, but right now there’s not much to get excited about.

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.
