The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’.
Honestly, mate, this stretch is a tough one. Crow Point is a point break that rarely breaks, and over the next 16 days it's mostly flat or messy, with no real standout sessions. The water temperature is sitting at 66°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year – a real treat if you're just having a splash, but you won't be needing the thick rubber for a while.
The first real chance of anything rideable doesn't show up until Saturday August 8th. Even then, we're talking about surfable waves but very ordinary conditions. On that Saturday morning, you're looking at 5ft swell from the W with a period of 8 seconds and moderate wave energy (349). The wind is light and cross-offshore from the east, so it'll be clean. That afternoon, the swell drops to 5ft from the WSW, still clean with light northerly cross-off winds. It's small and a bit fat, but if you're desperate for a paddle, that's your window. Crowds are possible, so don't expect to have it all to yourself.
Before the 8th, it's tiny or blown out. You get a few days in late July and early August with ankle-biters under 2ft and mostly cross or cross-onshore winds. Not worth getting wet.
Then there’s a bump in size around Friday August 7th, but the winds are cross-onshore and strong – 5ft to 8ft but choppy as all hell. Not one for a clean ride.
After the 8th, it fades again. The 9th has some clean 3ft waves but the energy is weak (121). Up to the 13th, it’s small, clean enough at times, but mainly under 3ft. No real power behind it.
So if you're keen, mark Saturday August 8th for a slow, clean session at Crow Point with small waves. It’s not going to be epic, but it’s the best you’ll get in this outlook.
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.
