The Lowdown
Alright, grab a coffee and settle in, because I’ve been staring at the charts for Fox Hill Point and, well, it’s a bit of a mixed bag. For the first few days, it’s honestly pretty flat and messy. We’ve got nothing worth paddling out for from now until about the 21st of July. That’s a solid four-day gap of slop and onshore junk. The water temp is sitting at 65°, which is about average for this time of year, so at least you won’t need a full winter suit.
Then, things start to get interesting. On Wednesday the 22nd, we finally see a pulse of energy. The swell comes up to 7 ft on the morning and 7 ft by the afternoon, out of the SSE. That’s a proper size, and with a period of 9 seconds in the afternoon, it’s got some push. The combined energy jumps to 673 (moderate wave energy), which is a solid thump. The wind is offshore from the west, light and clean – that’s the magic word. This is the standout window. The SSW swell direction is a bit off from the optimum SE, but with that clean offshore wind, Fox Hill will be looking good. For Wednesday afternoon, it’s going to be very good. This is for intermediate surfers; the size is over 5 ft, so beginners might find it a bit much.
After that, it fades out again. The rest of the run into the first week of August is mostly small, cross-onshore, and poor. There’s a little bump on the 31st of July with a 5 ft SSE swell, but the period is a short 5 seconds and the wind is cross-onshore, so it’ll be a bumpy, weak mess. The mornings of the 1st and 2nd of August have some small cross-shore and glassy conditions, but the swell is tiny, only 4 ft and 2 ft. Not worth getting excited about. So, really, your one and only shot is Wednesday the 22nd. Don’t miss it.

Information about the Fox Hill Point Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Fox Hill Point provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Fox Hill Point can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Fox Hill 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 (Fox Hill 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 Fox Hill 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.
