Table - best surf conditions forecast for Crow Point over the next 16 days.
Alright, grab your board and let’s have a look at the charts. It’s a pretty quiet spell ahead. There’s just the one spot that’s really worth a mention in our region, Crow Point. But honestly, it’s a tough call.
Crow Point is a sheltered little point break, and it only *rarely breaks* – so the fact it’s even on the radar is notable. But the issue is that for the entire 16-day window, from July 11th right through to July 26th, there’s just no real energy pushing through. The combined swell energy is almost always a pathetic single-digit or low double-digit number – we’re talking values between 4 and 66 (66 being the highest, and that's still weak). For a wave to get going here, we need a specific swell direction, ideally from the West. The little pulses we do see are mostly from the west or southwest, but they're tiny. For the first week, we’re looking at waves mostly 0.3 ft to 1 ft. That’s not surf.
The forecast does show a slight increase around July 20th, where a pulse of northwest swell pushes in. On Monday, July 20th, we get 3 ft to 3 ft from the west-northwest. The period is a very short 4-5 seconds – that’s windswell, all chop and no push. The combined energy jumps to 55, which is still weak. And the wind? On the 20th, it's onshore from the SSW in the morning, then a fresh cross-onshore from the west at 19 mph in the afternoon. That’s lumpy, messy conditions. It’ll look more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer.
The next little bump comes on Wednesday, July 22nd, with similar 3 ft waves from the west-northwest (period 5 seconds), but again with fresh cross-onshore winds at 16-19 mph and weak energy at 66. It’s the same story: choppy, lumpy, and just not worth getting wet for.
Later on, around Sunday, July 26th, there’s a tiny 2 ft pulse, but the period is only 4 seconds and the wind is light and cross-shore. There’s just not a single standout session here.
In short, for such an inconsistent spot, this is a blank run that feels pretty normal for the area. There’s nothing good on offer at Crow Point in this entire 16-day window. The forecasts can change, but right now, I’d leave the board in the garage. The water temperature is about average for the time of year.

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.
