Right then, the straight dope. We've got a pretty grim run ahead for the next couple of weeks. The swell just isn't showing up, and when it does, the wind's gonna mess it up. We're looking at a dry spell with no decent surf on the cards.

Let's start with this weekend, Saturday, July 4th. There's a bit of swell, around 2ft to 4ft from the west, but the wind is a solid cross-onshore at 12-16 mph, so it's going to be choppy and messy. The water's sitting at 63°F, which is a good 4°F warmer than usual for this time of year – that's pretty notable, a warm bath feeling. Energy readings are moderate, but combined with that wind, it's a write-off.

Moving into Sunday the 5th and Monday the 6th, the swell drops right off, down to 2ft, and the wind stays cross-onshore. The period is short, around 6-9 seconds, so no real power behind it. The energy drops to very weak. It's just not worth getting wet.

The whole first week is this same story. Tiny swell, poor conditions. We get a little window of cleaner winds from Wednesday the 8th through to Friday the 10th, with glassy or clean conditions in the morning. But the problem is the swell is still tiny, only 1ft to 2ft with a 9-second period, and the energy is very weak. It's clean but basically flat.

The second week doesn't offer any improvement. From Monday the 13th onwards, it's more of the same. Small 1ft west swell, and even when we get clean offshore winds from the NE on the 14th and 15th, the energy is only weak. It's not enough to push a wave.

By the last weekend, the 19th, it's practically a lake. 0.7ft of swell with a 4-second period and almost no energy. There is nothing to recommend here.

Look, it’s a rough patch. This break is a sheltered point that needs a good west swell and NE offshore wind to really work, and we're not getting either. It's a bad run, plain and simple. Stick to the skatepark for now.

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.
