The Lowdown

Alright, this is Rusty. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’.

Honestly, mate, I gotta be straight with you – Crow Point is lookin’ like a total bust for the next 16 days. We’ve got a long, flat stretch ahead. There’s nothing on the table worth paddling out for from now through to the 5th of August. It’s a rare-breaks setup and it’s living up to that reputation.

The first few days right through to the end of July are just dead. Tiny dribbles of 0.7ft to 1ft from the west with short, weak periods. The water temp on the 21st of July is sitting at 64°, which is a solid 4° warmer than usual for this time of year – that’s a notable, warm anomaly, but it won’t help the surf.

For a brief window around the 1st and 2nd of August, the combined energy of all swells directed here climbs into the moderate range (199-211), with some swell heights around 4ft to 4ft from the west-southwest. But and it’s a big but – the wind is rubbish. Fresh onshore and cross-onshore breezes will chop it to bits. This is a beach-and-reef setup, and with those strong winds and lumpy conditions, this looks way more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.

Even the glassy moments, like the morning of the 23rd of July with 0.7ft, or the 29th of July, are just too small to even bother. There are a couple of cleaner moments with cross-off or glassy winds, but the swell is non-existent. The only spot with a bit of pulse in the second week is also hampered by strong wind. There are no standouts.

This is just how it goes here sometimes. When it’s rare, it’s rare.

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.
