The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's get into it. We've got a 16-day window, and I'll be straight with you – it's a pretty grim stretch for Fox Hill Point. This exposed reef break usually needs a decent SE swell to work, and the pattern just isn't there. You're looking at a long, quiet run.
The water is sitting at 64°, which is a bit colder than you'd expect for this time of year, so a good 3/2 wetsuit is the call.
The first part of the outlook is a write-off. From Sunday the 19th right through to the end of July, the swell is tiny. We're talking mainly 1 ft to 4 ft from the SE, but the period is all over the shop, mostly short and weak. The wave energy is weak, often below 100, and the wind is a mess. Most days it's a cross-onshore breeze messing up the surface, making it choppy and unappealing. The best you'll see is a few clean early mornings, like Sunday the 26th with glassy conditions and a clean 3 ft SE swell (period 8s), but the energy is still only 72 and the wave comment says poor surf conditions. It's just not enough to get excited about.
There's a slight bump in the energy on the 22nd and 23rd, with combined energy readings hitting 152 and 132, but the swell is still only 4 ft to 3 ft and the wind is messy. It looks more interesting for a kite than a paddle board on those days, to be honest.
The first week of August doesn't look any better. The swell drops right back down, with most sessions offering less than 3 ft and weak, short-period energy. The wind continues to be a problem, mostly cross-shore or onshore. The 1st of August afternoon shows a 3 ft from the S with a pathetic 5-second period – that's windswell, not groundswell, and it'll be a mess.
Honestly, there's no standout session here. The forecast is consistently poor, with no real swell or clean wind aligning. Don't bother checking the buoys for this one, just give it a miss. The conditions are just not there for a paddle.
Rusty.

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.
