Gather 'round, surfers. Let's talk about what's on the table for Crow Point over the next couple of weeks. I've gotta be straight with you – the outlook here is a tough one. The whole 16-day window is a flat spell with only a tiny, unconvincing pulse of energy way out on the horizon. There are no real standouts to get excited about, so we're mostly talking about a long wait for something that might barely be worth a paddle.

The first week is a write-off. From Friday the 3rd right through to the 17th, we're looking at tiny, weak swell – we're talking mostly around 0.7ft to 2ft from the west. The combined energy is next to nothing, hovering between single digits and the low hundreds, with most days under 100, so barely a ripple. The wind is almost always on it, mostly cross-onshore or choppy, keeping things messy. There's a moment on Friday morning, July 10th, where it goes glassy with a slight air from the east-southeast, but with a 1ft swell, it's barely a ripple. The 12th and 13th have some clean conditions due to offshore or cross-offshore breezes, but again, the swell is too small. A longer period swell shows up on the 14th and 15th with 2ft from the west, but the wind is still cross-offshore and the energy tops out at 100 – it's just not enough.

Now, the one thing that catches my eye is right at the very end of the forecast. On Saturday, July 18th, we finally see a bump. The morning shows a 5ft swell from the west-southwest with a moderate combined energy of 405, and a light cross-shore breeze. It's described as a marginal surf forecast. That afternoon the swell jumps to 6ft from the west-southwest, with energy climbing to 561, but the wind swings to a moderate cross-shore, creating a chop. Keep in mind, Crow Point is a point break that rarely breaks, so any wave here is a bonus, but it's also sheltered and picks up west swell, which lines up. The water temperature on Friday the 3rd is 63°F, which is 4° warmer than normal, so it's much warmer than usual for this time of year.

So, the long and short of it: there's nothing worth paddling out for until the 18th, and even then, that's a whole two weeks away and a real long shot. A flat spell like this is unusually long and quiet for this spot. The only glimmer is that Saturday the 18th, over a week from now, where you might find a clean-ish wave in the morning if the swell fills in. Keep an eye on it, but don't hold your breath.

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.
