The Lowdown
Alright, crew. Rusty here. Let's cut to it – the next 16 days are a tough slog. We’re talking about a long, ugly stretch for our only option, Crow Point. This spot doesn't pump often, and this forecast shows nothing but the rough side of things for the foreseeable future.
The water's sitting around 65°, which is about 4° warmer than normal for this time of year – a bit of a surprise, but it won't help the waves.
For the first week and a half, the surf is a complete no-go. From Friday the 11th all the way through to early on the 22nd of September, nearly every session is trashed by strong onshore winds, cross-chop, and just plain nasty conditions. We see wave energy pop up to a moderate 319 at times (on Sunday the 13th), but the wind is always against us. A W swell is the right direction for Crow Point, but the wind just shreds any chance of a good wave. The swell is small and weak, with energy readings mostly well under 300, making for a frustrating paddle with no reward. This spot is described as "rarely breaks" and this run proves it – a blank spell that's pretty much normal here.
Now, mark your calendars for Tuesday, September the 22nd. That's the one little glimmer in the forecast. The wind finally swings offshore from the NE, and we get a light breeze at 6 mph. The report calls it "clean". The swell is a tiny 2ft from the W, with a period of 9 seconds. The wave energy is only 108, but with that offshore wind, that 2ft might actually produce a few ridable, if very small, lines. That break is rarely consistent, but if it's going to work, this is the time. Don't expect much, but it's the only window where the stars even get close to aligning.
After that, it’s right back into the poor stuff with onshore winds. A couple of sessions on the 26th of September show a clean cross-off breeze, but the swell is either tiny or too disorganized to get excited about.
So, bottom line: we have one potential morning to check on the 22nd. Otherwise, it's a long, dry spell. Forecasts can change, but this looks grim. For the rest, the wind and chop just kill any hope.
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.
