The Lowdown
Alright, grab a coffee, let’s see what’s cooking. We’re looking at Fox Hill Point, a reef setup that needs a decent SE swell to really wake up. Thing is, the next couple of weeks are looking pretty flat and gnarly wind-wise, so we’ve got a long quiet spell to get through first.
Right now and for the next week and a bit, it’s a total write-off. Tiny swell – we’re talking 0.7 ft to 3 ft – and nearly always crossed up with onshore breezes, mostly from the SE and ESE. The energy is weak as, hovering in the 11 to 94 range, so basically no push at all. Monday the 16th might have slightly cleaner conditions with a light cross-offshore from the NNW, but the swell is still tiny at 2 ft. It’s just not worth paddling out.
The real wait is for Monday the 21st of September. We finally see a bump in size, with 4 ft coming from the ENE. The energy jumps into the moderate range (120), and while it’s cross-on, the wind is only a light breeze from the NE, so it won't be too messy. Still, the quality is marked as poor and it's not a standout. It's promising but not the best on offer.
The real standout, the one you've been waiting for, falls on Saturday the 27th of September. Sunday morning actually. We’ve got a 4 ft swell from the E with an 11-second period – that’s groundswell energy – and the wind is a clean cross-offshore from the SW. The combined energy jumps right up to 411, so there’s some proper grunt in the water. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there. Fox Hill Point will be handling this swell well, with clean conditions. This is the one to circle.
Before that, on Saturday the 26th of September morning, there's a little glimmer with glassy conditions and a 3 ft ESE swell, but the period is short (7 secs) and the energy is only 164, so it’s more of a warm-up.
Overall, it’s a long, quiet stretch until the very end of the forecast window. The last weekend in September has the only real shot at something clean with a bit of push.

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.
