The Lowdown
G’day, I’m Rusty.
Let’s be honest – if you’re hoping for a wave around here for the next sixteen days, you’re out of luck. Crow Point is a point break that’s sheltered from the swell and rarely breaks, and this forecast is a long, flat stretch. There’s nothing worth paddling for. The swell stays tiny, mostly 0.3 ft to 4 ft, and even when it bumps up a little, the quality is poor.
The first few days, from Monday 20 July through to Friday 24 July, the swell is barely a ripple – 0.3 ft to 0.7 ft, with weak energy (6 to 11). The water’s much warmer than usual at 64°, but that doesn’t help the surf. Winds are light and sometimes offshore, but there’s just no wave to ride.
Around Saturday 25 July, the swell tries to lift a bit – 2 ft in the morning, then 4 ft in the afternoon with a 5-second period. That’s short period, weak, and onshore wind makes it choppy. Energy climbs to 55, but it’s still poor.
Sunday 26 July morning sees the biggest swell of the whole run – 4 ft from the WNW, period 6 seconds, energy 129 – but the wind is cross-offshore and clean. It’s still a short-period, weak swell, and the break rarely breaks, so it’s not a goer.
From Monday 27 July onward, it’s back to tiny stuff – 2 ft and below, mostly cross or cross-on winds, with energy dropping into the teens and twenties. Even the glassy morning on Monday 27 July with 2 ft and 8-second period (energy 45) can’t save it – the wave’s just not there.
The rest of the window into early August stays flat, with 0.7 ft to 2 ft, short periods, and mostly cross-on or choppy conditions. Nothing changes.
Bottom line: Crow Point is a write-off for the whole 16 days. This is a blank run, and for this sheltered spot, it’s not unusual. Keep an eye on the forecasts – they can shift, but right now, leave the board at home.

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.
