Table - best surf conditions forecast for Crow Point over the next 16 days.
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s get real about the plan. We’ve got a 16-day stretch ahead, and Crow Point is the only game in town. Look, the outlook is a tough one. The first real option doesn’t show up until we’re a week in, and even that’s not a slam dunk.
Right now, through the middle of July, it’s all flat. We’re talking swell heights from 0.3 ft up to about 1 ft, with combined wave energy barely hitting the double digits. That’s not surf, that’s a pond. The wind is a mix of cross-offshores and light breezes, which would be perfect if there was any wave to ride, but there isn’t.
The first real chance, and I mean the only one, is Sunday, July 27th. For the first time, the morning shows a swell height of 5 ft from the WSW, with a period of 9 seconds. The combined energy finally jumps to 320 (moderate wave energy), which is actual swell. For a spot that “rarely breaks”, this is your window. But that 5 ft height is pushing it for beginners, and with a cross-shore wind, it won’t be glassy. The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing too unusual.
Before that Sunday, it’s a long, dry spell. Over a week of nothing but ankle-biters. Don’t even think about paddling out until that last Sunday. Even then, it’s a one-off shot.
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.
