The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's be straight with you. I've had a good look at the charts for Crow Point, and honestly, it's a tough one. We're staring down a 16-day stretch where the surf just isn't showing up. From July 31st right through to August 15th, every single session is flagged as poor. That's a solid two-week gap with nothing to get excited about.

For a spot that rarely breaks anyway, this kind of blank run is more normal than you'd hope. It's a sheltered point that needs a specific W swell to get going, and the juice just isn't in the right place. The few days we do get a little bump, with combined swell energy barely cracking 60 (like 67 on August 3rd), the wind is often cross or onshore, chopping it up into a mess. You'll see a few moments of glassy, clean conditions, but the swell is just too tiny—1ft to 2ft—to push through. And when the wind does clean up, the swell drops to a pathetic 0.3ft with energy readings of 2 or 3. It's a desert.

The only real glimmer comes on August 6th, Thursday morning. For a few hours, we've got a glassy surface with a tiny 1ft, 6-second swell. It's clean, but the wave energy is only 25, so you're looking at a micro-session on a longboard at best. Not a standout by any stretch.

Bottom line: Don't bother packing the boards for Crow Point for the next two weeks. This is a place where the forecast can change, and it tends not to stay this poor forever, but right now, you're better off finding something else to do. The setup is just too sheltered and the swell windows are getting completely missed.

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.
