The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's be straight with you — this next 16 days is a real quiet stretch for the area. We're looking at a long, long gap of tiny, poor-quality surf, so if you're itching to paddle out, you might want to temper those expectations.

First up, the only break on the radar is Crow Point, and it's a tough one. This spot rarely breaks anyway, and unfortunately, the next two weeks don't look like they'll change that. The water temp is sitting about average for the time of year, which is no surprise.

We kick off on Wednesday, 15th July, with a tiny 1 ft W swell and a short period around 10 seconds. The combined energy is weak (28), and the wind is a fresh 19 mph easterly, making it cross-off. It's clean, but there's just no power. The afternoon eases to a lighter 12 mph NE offshore, but the swell is still tiny.

Thursday, 16th July, drops even further. Morning sees a 0.3 ft SW swell with a long 14-second period, but energy is a paltry 16. The wind is cross-off, so it's clean, but it's barely a ripple. The afternoon brings a 1 ft W swell back, but it's short-period at 8 seconds and still weak.

Friday, 17th July, through to the end of the first week is more of the same. We're looking at 0.3 ft to 0.7 ft swells, all with weak energy (single digits to low teens). Winds are light to moderate, mostly offshore or cross-off, so the surface is clean, but there's simply nothing to ride. This is a blank run.

The second week doesn't offer much hope. From Monday, 21st July, through to Wednesday, 29th July, it's a relentless march of 0.7 ft to 1 ft W swells, with weak energy (3 to 18). The wind mostly stays light to moderate, but it's often cross or cross-on, which adds a bit of chop to the already tiny surf. The swell direction is west, which is the optimum direction for Crow Point, but there's just no size to make it work.

The only slight lift comes on Saturday, 25th July, in the afternoon. We get a 2 ft W swell, but with a short period of 7 seconds, and the combined energy only reaches 47. The wind is a moderate 12 mph cross-on from the WNW, making it choppy. It's still poor surf conditions.

The final days of July, from the 27th to the 30th, are a write-off. Rain showers and onshore winds from the WSW and SSW bring lumpy, choppy conditions on top of swells that never break 1 ft. This isn't paddle surfing weather; with the strong onshore winds and small, poor-quality waves, it's more of a kite-surfing setup, if anything.

The honest truth is, there is no standout session. The entire 16-day window is a dud. Crow Point is inconsistent at the best of times, and this is one of those long blank runs that's normal for the area. Don't hold your breath.

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.
