Table - best surf conditions forecast for Crow Point over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what Crow Point has in store for us over the next couple of weeks.
To be straight with you, this is a tough one. The whole 16-day window looks pretty flat. There's barely a ripple of energy coming through. The combined swell energy is sitting in the weak zone, with values barely cracking 41 at the best of times, and it drops right down to single digits later on. You're looking at a long stretch of tiny, knee-high or below slop at best, with most days offering nothing rideable. We're talking about a gap of basically the entire forecast period with no real surf to recommend.
The first few days, from Wednesday the 8th through to the weekend, we see a tiny 2ft to 2ft swell from the west. The period is short, around 9 seconds, so it's just windswash. There's a moment on Thursday morning the 9th with a light NNW breeze that keeps things clean, but with that tiny size and weak energy, it's a hard pass. The water temp is sitting at 63°, which is a couple of degrees warmer than usual for this time – a touch warmer than normal, but it won't help the waves.
After that, it just gets smaller. By the second week, from the 15th onwards, the swell drops to 1ft and then 0.3ft. The wind does swing offshore or cross-offshore a few times, like on the 11th afternoon with a moderate NE breeze, but the swell is just too pathetic to care about. The energy is non-existent, dropping to values like 11 and 8. A few days have very long period swells, like 18 and 21 seconds, but the height is 0.3ft, so it's just a long-period bump on the water. For a wave that rarely breaks and is sheltered, this is a classic blank run for the area. There's honestly nothing here for a surfer.

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.
