G'day, Rusty here, and I gotta be straight with you—this 16-day stretch for Crow Point is lookin' pretty grim. It's a sheltered point that rarely breaks, and right now, it's just not doing its job. For the first week and a half, we're talkin' tiny, gutless waves with barely any energy behind 'em, and the wind, while offshore at times, is just too strong to make anything of it. We've got a long gap from now until the 23rd of July with nothing really worth paddlin' out for. The combined swell energy is stuck in double digits, like 74 or even lower, which is just whisperin'.

The only time this place starts to show a pulse is from the 22nd of July. On the 22nd, Wednesday morning, we see a jump to 6ft of swell from the west, with a period of 7 seconds. The combined energy bumps up to 276, and it's clean with a cross-offshore breeze, but honestly, 6ft on a short period is just a choppy, lumpy mess. It's still not a rec, just a tease.

Then, on the 24th of July, Friday morning, things get serious. We're lookin' at a solid 12ft of west swell, a 10 second period, and a massive combined energy of 2457. That's a lot of juice. But here's the kicker—it's an 12ft swell at a sheltered point that prefers west swell, and the wind is a cross-off from the southeast. That's big, powerful, and probably unruly. For a break that's "rarely breaks," this is a wild card. It's definitely expert-only territory at that size, and it's still a bit of a gamble with the wind. The water temp was a balmy 64°F back on the 10th, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, but that anomaly is from the start of the period, not the peak.

All in all, if you're a beginner, stay away from the 24th. If you're an expert and you're bored, it might be worth a look on the 24th morning, but don't expect perfection. The rest of the run is a write-off.

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.
