The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk about Crow Point. It’s been quiet out there, and this forecast doesn’t offer much to get the heart pumping. Crow Point is a sheltered point break that rarely breaks, so when it’s flat, it’s just a quiet stretch of sand.
From Monday the 10th, we’re looking at tiny, weak swell with messy cross-shore winds – really just poor conditions across the board. It stays like that through Tuesday the 11th, with waves barely a foot high. Wednesday the 12th shows a little lift, maybe 2ft from the west, and a light offshore breeze in the morning makes it clean, but the combined energy is still very weak at 73, and the period is short. It’s surfable if you’re desperate, but nothing special.
Thursday the 13th bumps up to about 3ft from the west-southwest, with moderate energy at 185, but the wind swings cross-shore at 12 mph, chopping up the surface. The rest of that week stays mediocre – waist-high lumps with onshore or cross-shore winds spoiling the fun.
Now, Saturday, August 22nd – that morning fires up with a 10ft groundswell from the west, and the combined energy hits a massive 2034 (very strong wave energy) with a 11-second period. That’s expert-only territory, way too big for beginners. Wind is a moderate cross-offshore from the north at 16 mph, keeping it clean. For a point break like Crow Point, that long-period western swell should wrap in nicely and offer some real power, though expect long waits between sets. It’s the standout of the whole 16 days, but it’s a long way off.
After that, Sunday the 23rd still has overhead waves (6ft), but the period drops to 7 seconds, and energy settles to 340 (moderate). Light winds keep it clean, but it’s just ordinary. By Monday the 24th, it’s glassy with a tiny 2ft, 14-second groundswell (very long period) and moderate energy – a beautiful clean day for a small-wave board, but the swell is tiny for a point. Tuesday the 25th offers similar small, clean conditions with an offshore breeze.
Overall, the big day is the 22nd. Everything else is small and average. For an inconsistent spot like this, a long stretch of nothing is pretty normal – forecasts can change, but for now, it’s mostly a waiting game.
Stay stoked.

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.
