The Lowdown

G’day, it’s Rusty here. We’ve got a pretty rough stretch ahead at Crow Point. The entire 16‑day forecast is a write‑off for decent surf. Right from the get‑go on Monday 14 September, it’s messy with onshore winds and light rain – not worth paddling out. That sets the tone for the whole period. Tuesday 15 September brings 6ft of windswell out of the west at 7 seconds, but a fresh cross‑onshore wind turns it lumpy and messy. Wednesday 16 September has a touch more energy (combined energy around 482–535), but cross‑shore winds still chop it up. Thursday 17 September through the rest of the week is more of the same: moderate to fresh cross‑onshore winds, lumpy, poor conditions. Over the weekend of 20–21 September, the swell drops to 3ft or less, and while Sunday 21 September turns clean with light offshore breezes, there’s barely any energy – combined swell energy falls to 45 on Monday morning. It stays tiny right through to the end of the month, with occasional glassy windows on Thursday 24 September morning, but only 2ft of weak west swell at 9 seconds. That’s about the best you’ll get, but it’s still not enough to get excited about. Tuesday 22 September morning sees a little more period (12 seconds) and a clean cross‑offshore, but the swell is only 2ft. Realistically, there’s no standout in this window. For any surfer, it’s a blank run – and given Crow Point is a sheltered, rarely breaking point break that rarely sees any proper swell, this kind of flat spell is pretty normal for the area. The water temperature is 65°F, which is 4°F warmer than average – that’s much warmer than normal for mid‑September. That anomaly stands out more than the surf does.

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.
