The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what Crow Point has in store for us over the next couple of weeks. I gotta be straight with you – it's a grim picture for the most part, but there is a little light at the end of the tunnel if you're patient.
This sheltered point break is a real tough one to get working, and it rarely breaks as it is. The whole 16-day window is looking pretty average. The wind is almost always on it or cross-onshore, making a mess of things. The water temp is about 66°F which is much warmer than usual for this time of year, so at least you won't need a steamer.
For the first week and a half, from the 1st right through until the morning of the 11th of September, the wave comment is "poor surf conditions" for every single session. It's just not happening. There's a bit of swell around, but short-period, weak stuff mixed in with strong winds, and it's all over the place. The combined energy ranges from a weak 113 to a moderate 940, but with the onshore wind, it's just a chop fest. That 7th of September morning sees a jump in period to 13 seconds with a combined energy of 784, but it's an onshore wind direction, making it a messy, blown-out mush burger.
The one true standout, and the only time you might want to paddle out, is on Friday, 11th of September. The wind finally swings offshore from the ESE and E, giving us clean conditions. It's not a huge swell, about 3ft to 4ft from the WSW with a period of 8 seconds, and the combined energy is low, between 113 and 181. It's surfable but very ordinary. The crowds are only sometimes an issue here, so you'll probably have the place to yourself for these little knee-high to waist-high rollers. For a break that so rarely offers anything, this is your chance.
After that, the surf drops right off again, with tiny waves and strong offshore winds on the 12th and 13th, which is more kite weather than paddle surfing. The 14th sees a bit more size (5ft) and clean winds, but the period is still short, and the wave comment is still poor. The 15th and 16th are back to onshore winds.
So, bottom line: one small, clean window on the 11th of September. Everything else is a write-off. This is a tough spot, and for 16 days, only one of them is really worth a look. Forecasts can change though, so don't burn your board just yet.
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.
