The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming up.
To be straight with you, it’s a quiet run ahead. This spot rarely breaks, and the next couple of weeks are looking pretty flat and messy. There’s no real stand-out day, and the whole 16-day window is a struggle. Most of the time, the swell is tiny, the wind is wrong, or both. You’ll be waiting a long time between waves.
Let’s start with Sunday the 2nd of August. We’ve got a tiny 1ft swell from the WSW, but it’s only 8 seconds period and the energy is weak (22). The wind is cross-off, so it’s not completely blown out, but it’s just too small to bother with.
Monday the 3rd of August morning is the closest we get to something worthwhile. The swell bumps up to 3ft from the WSW, period stretches to 9 seconds, and the wind goes glassy. That’s clean, but the wave energy is still low (84), and it’s a sheltered spot for a W swell. Monday afternoon the wind swings cross-shore and it gets a bit lumpy.
Tuesday the 4th of August has a little more push, with 3ft from the WSW, but it’s onshore, gusty, and the energy jumps to 181 – moderate, but it’s blown out. After that, it’s all downhill. Wednesday through to the end of the first week, the swell drops and the wind stays cross or cross-on. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing unusual.
The second week, from the 10th of August onward, is even worse. We’re looking at 1ft to 2ft swells, short periods, and mostly cross or onshore winds. The combined energy barely cracks 50. It’s not worth getting wet.
If you’re desperate, Monday morning the 3rd of August is the best of a bad bunch – glassy conditions and a knee-high ripple. But honestly, you’re better off waiting for a better forecast. There’s nothing here that’ll get the heart pumping.
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.
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.
