The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break it down.
For the next couple of weeks, Crow Point is mostly a no-go. It’s a spot that rarely breaks anyway, and the conditions are just not lining up. The water is about 65°F, which is about 4°F warmer than usual – that’s pretty wild for this time of year, almost feels tropical.
The first week is all poor surf. Waves are small, mostly under 3ft, and the wind is either cross or cross-on from the south, southwest, or west. On Tuesday the 8th, the swell jumps to around 7ft, but with a fresh 19 mph cross-on wind, it’s lumpy and messy. The energy is moderate at 691. That size is already too much for beginners.
The only real highlight is Saturday the 19th. Finally, we get light offshore winds from the north-northeast at only 6-9 mph. Swell is about 4ft from the west with a 10-second period – clean, lined-up groundswell. Energy is moderate at 231. For a break that rarely breaks and is sheltered, this is your shot. Crowds are possible, but when it’s this clean and this rare, you take it.
Sunday the 20th bumps up to about 6ft, but the wind goes east-southeast, ruining it. After that, it’s back to poor or ordinary conditions. If you’re into kitesurfing, there’s plenty of wind and chop later on – but for a regular surfer, it’s slim pickings.
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.
Crow Point is 2 km (1 miles) from Appledore. If you plan a holiday in North Devon, look for hotels and other accommodation in Appledore. Appledore has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
