The Lowdown
Alright, crew, Rusty here. Staring down the next 16 days at Crow Point, and I’m not gonna sugarcoat it – it’s a total washout. We’ve got a massive dry spell with nothing worth paddling out for from now all the way through to the 17th of September. Not a single slot where the surf and wind line up.
It all starts poorly on Wednesday the 2nd. A 4ft WSW swell, but the wind is a nasty cross-on at 18 mph, and the wave energy is weak (97). It’s lumpy, messy, and not worth a second look. Thursday the 3rd is onshore slop, and Friday the 4th brings a 7ft W swell with a moderate energy 546, but that WNW wind at 18 mph keeps it cross-on and rough.
The only tiny glimmer is Saturday morning the 5th. The wind goes dead calm, glassy, with a 3ft west swell at 9 seconds and moderate energy (164). The call is “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions,” scoring just a 1 out of 10. It’s the best of the worst, and it’s gone by the afternoon when a light cross-shore shows up.
After that, it’s grim. Sunday the 6th to Wednesday the 16th is a parade of cross-on and onshore winds, with swell sizes from a tiny 1ft up to a chunky 8ft. That bigger 8ft on Wednesday the 9th has a moderate cross-shore wind and energy of 776, but it’s a short-period windswell, making it an expert-only mess. The whole run ends on Thursday the 17th with a tiny 1ft, 10-second WSW groundswell and light onshore winds.
For a spot like Crow Point, which rarely breaks and needs the right window, this is a proper dead zone. The water is running nearly 5° warmer than the long-term average, which is weird, but it doesn’t help the waves. No standouts here, folks. Just gotta mark the calendar and try again another time.
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.
