G’day, I’m Rusty.
Well, I gotta be straight with you – we’re looking at a pretty bleak run here at Fox Hill Point. The whole 16-day window is a tough one, and there’s no real standout session to get excited about. We’ve got a whole lot of “poor surf conditions” stretching out from the start of July right through to the 14th, with barely a ripple worth paddling for. The swell is tiny, mostly around 1ft to 2ft, coming from the SE, and the combined energy is weak – mostly in the 20s and 30s (24 to 58). It’s just not doing anything for this exposed reef break.
Now, the water temperature is sitting at 64°, which is about normal for the time of year, so no surprises there.
The first hint of anything surfable doesn’t show up until Wednesday the 15th of July. The afternoon session sees a little bump – 5ft of SSE swell with a short period of 5 seconds, and clean conditions thanks to a WSW offshore wind at 9 mph. The combined energy climbs to 92 (moderate), but the wave comment says it’s “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions.” It’s not going to be any kind of classic, and with that short period, it’s gonna be a bit mushy. Still, if you’re desperate, that’s your best shot.
Thursday the 16th of July morning offers another clean window – 3ft from the SE, period 7 seconds, with a light SSW cross-off breeze at 6 mph. Combined energy is 88 (moderate). Again, ordinary, but at least it’s clean.
Then on Saturday the 18th of July afternoon, the swell jumps to 6ft from the SSE, period 6 seconds, and the combined energy hits a solid 235 (strong). That’s the biggest swell of the whole outlook. The wind is cross-off from the SW at 9 mph, keeping things clean. But here’s the thing – it’s described as “marginal surf forecast or questionable tide conditions.” For a reef break, 6ft starts getting a bit serious, and with that short period, it could be a bit of a washing machine. Probably a spot for experienced surfers only, and even then, don’t expect perfection.
Overall, this is one of those stretches where you might be better off with a longboard and low expectations. There are no true standouts – just a couple of sessions that are “okay” if the stars align. You’ll be waiting a full 12 days from the start for anything mildly surfable.
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.
