Table - best surf conditions forecast for Crow Point over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's take a proper look at what's on offer for Crow Point over the next couple of weeks. Straight up, it's a tough outlook. This is a sheltered, west-facing point that's listed as rarely breaking, so when there's no real push of swell, you're looking at flat, glassy conditions that just aren't surfable. We've got a long run of days here with nothing worth paddling out for. The entire 16-day window is a write-off for decent waves.
Starting from Wednesday morning, the 8th of July, through to Thursday the 23rd of July, every single session is rated as "poor surf conditions". The swell heights barely nudge above 2ft, and more often than not they're sitting at a pathetic 0.3ft or 0.7ft. The combined energy stays in the weak range, never even reaching three figures, just dribbling along at 57 (combined energy) at its highest on Friday the 10th, which is still tiny. For a spot that needs a proper W swell to bend around, this is just not happening.
There's a bit of a tease on the 12th of July Sunday afternoon, where the period jumps to 21 seconds with a clean offshore NE wind at 19 mph, but the swell height is only 0.3ft. That's a long-period groundswell, but without any height, it's just a clean, flat ocean. The same story plays out on the 13th and 14th with tiny 0.3ft swells and those super long periods over 18 seconds. It's a beautiful, clean ocean for a paddle, but there is absolutely no wave to ride.
Look, there are no standout days here. There are no peaks to chase. The only positive is that when the wind is light or offshore, like the glassy WNW on the 8th morning or the clean cross-off on the 13th, it would be a lovely spot for a swim. But for a surfer with a board? You're better off finding something else to do. For a break that's this inconsistent and with this little swell on the horizon, a blank run like this is unfortunately normal for the area.
Stay patient, check back later.
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.
