The Lowdown
Alright mate, let's break down the next couple of weeks.
I'll level with you, it’s a tough stretch for Crow Point. This place is a point break that rarely fires, and it’s pretty sheltered, needing a specific west swell to line up. Over the next 16 days, we’re looking at a whole lot of nothing special. The first week is pretty much a write-off. The water’s sitting at 66°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s about the only highlight.
We start off on Friday the 4th with rain showers and a fresh 19 mph cross-onshore wind. The swell is a messy 7ft from the west at 8 seconds, but the combined energy (591) is moderate. It’s poor, and the wind is just wrecking it. That theme sticks right through to Thursday the 11th – we get pulses of swell up to 6ft, but the wind is always cross-on or onshore, keeping everything lumpy and choppy. Even a smaller 3ft day on the 5th is ruined. It’s a long, bleak run.
The first glimmer of hope doesn’t show up until Saturday the 12th. The morning is tiny at 2ft, but it’s glassy. The afternoon brings a 2ft west swell with an 11-second period and it stays glassy. The energy is weak (108), and the wave comment says “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions.” It’s better than the rest, but it’s really just a small, clean ripple.
After that, it goes tiny again until the 16th, where some swell returns. Wednesday the 16th morning has a 4ft west-southwest swell with clean cross-offshore winds. Then, on Friday the 18th morning, we finally see the best of the run. We’ve got a clean 6ft west swell at 7 seconds, with a light 6 mph cross-offshore breeze from the north-northeast. The combined energy is moderate (456), and the wave comment is “expect good surf conditions.” This is the standout. The swell direction is west, which matches the optimum direction for this spot.
Saturday the 19th morning is also clean but smaller at 4ft, with a light offshore. The earlier call on the 18th is the one to aim for if you can. Remember, this spot is inconsistent, so a session like that is a rarity. The crowds can show up sometimes, so be prepared for company.

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.
