The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking for the next couple of weeks.
Straight up, it’s a tough run. We’ve got a solid 16-day window ahead, but honestly, there’s not a single moment where I’d be racing to get wet. The first nine days are a write-off – poor surf conditions, lumpy, choppy, cross-onshore winds. Don’t bother paddling out until we hit the second week.
We finally get a bit of a break around Thursday, September 12th, but it’s still not great. The swell is tiny, only 3 ft from the west, and the wind goes cross-offshore, cleaning things up. The combined energy is weak at 84, so you’re looking at a dribbly, small day. It’s clean, but honestly, it’s more of a paddle-around session than a real surf.
The only time things get a sniff of being worthwhile is on Thursday, September 17th, and even then, it’s a stretch. The swell is still small at 2 ft from the west, but the wind goes light cross-offshore and clean. The combined energy is a weak 104 – it’s the best we’ve got in the whole run. The water is about average for the time of year, so no wetsuit drama. Crow Point is sheltered, rarely breaks, and is a beginner-friendly point break, so crowds are possible if it’s actually showing. This is the one and only highlight, but temper your expectations – it’s not a standout for size.
The following day, Friday, September 18th, sees a bit more size with 5 ft to 5 ft from the west-northwest, and the wind goes offshore, so it’s clean. But the period is short at 6 seconds, and the combined energy is only 183 – it’s ordinary, surfable, but not exciting. After that, it fades out again.
Overall, this is a blank run for the area. Crow Point is rarely consistent, so a long stretch of poor-to-mediocre conditions is more normal here. Hang tight, check back, forecasts can change.
Rusty.

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.
