The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for Crow Point. I gotta be straight with ya – this is a tough one. This spot is a point break that rarely breaks, and it’s sheltered, only wanting swell from the west. The whole 16-day window is a long, frustrating wait for something decent.
The first real glimmer of hope doesn't show up until Friday, the 31st of July. The afternoon finally sees a weak 4ft swell from the southwest, but the real kicker is the wind. We’re talking about a clean, offshore breeze from the east-northeast at just 3 mph. It’s glassy. The combined energy is still weak at 103, but for a spot that’s been in a coma, this is a pulse. It’s a tiny, clean wave, but it’s *something*.
But honestly, the whole fortnight is a bust. The surf is basically non-existent or too messy to bother with. The winds are mostly cross or onshore, and the swell is tiny. There’s a massive gap of nothing from the 1st of August all the way through to the 9th, with only a few tiny, clean days on the 3rd of August with a 1ft swell and offshore winds, but it’s just too small to get excited about.
Then, right at the very end of the outlook, we get a serious tease. On the morning of Wednesday, the 5th of August, the forecast lights up. The swell jumps to a solid 8ft from the west-southwest, with a combined energy reading of 1182. That’s strong. The wind is a dream – glassy, light air from the east. The wave comment says "expect very good surf conditions." That’s the one. But, and it’s a big but, that’s over a week away. For a spot that rarely breaks, this is a promising, long-range standout. If you’re an expert, this is your window. Because 8ft is big, and not for the faint of heart.
So, the short version: Crow Point is a dead zone for nearly two weeks. The only real action is a tiny, clean wave on the 31st of July, and a potentially epic, but far-off, big swell on the 5th of August. Keep your fingers crossed the forecasts hold.
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.
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.
