Table - best surf conditions forecast for Crow Point over the next 16 days.
Alright, grab a coffee, let’s see what’s cooking around Crow Point. Honestly, it’s a quiet couple of weeks ahead. Crow Point is a sheltered point break that rarely breaks, and the forecast is pretty much all “poor surf conditions” until we get into late July. The water’s a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, sitting at 63°, but that’s about the only perk right now.
We’re looking at a long stretch of tiny, weak swell. From Wednesday the 8th right through to Sunday the 19th, the waves are mostly ankle-to-knee high, with combined energies barely nudging above 30 or 40 (that’s weak). The wind does offer some clean windows—like Wednesday morning when it’s glassy, and several mornings with cross-off breezes—but with swell heights mostly sitting below 2 ft and periods around 8-10 seconds, there’s just no push. It’s a waiting game.
The first real glimmer comes on Monday the 20th in the morning. Swell bumps up to 4 ft from the WNW, period 8 seconds, and the combined energy hits a moderate 197. The wind is light offshore from the ENE, so it’ll be clean. The guidance says “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions,” so we’re not talking pumping, but it’s the best of a very quiet run. That morning is the one to circle. After that, it fades again into tiny junk for the rest of the week.
So, for the whole 16-day window, the standout is Monday morning, July 20th. Crow Point, with that 4 ft WNW swell and light offshore breeze, is the only real chance to get wet without fighting hopelessly small surf. Don’t expect perfection, but it’s the best on offer. Everything else is essentially flat or close to it.

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.
