The Lowdown

G'day, Rusty here. Look, I've got to be straight with you – the outlook for the next 16 days is a bit of a flat spell. We've got Fox Hill Point as the only spot on the cards, and truth be told, it's not offering much for the wave riders. The water temperature is sitting at 70°F, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year, so at least the conditions are pleasant for a paddle, even if the waves aren't.

The whole period is dominated by small, weak swell. The energy is low, with most combined swell energy readings under 100, and often in the single or double digits. For the first week, from Friday 14 August right through to Wednesday 19 August, we're looking at tiny waves, mostly 0.7ft to 3ft, and the wind is almost always cross-onshore, chopping things up. The period is short, often 4 to 9 seconds, so it's weak, wind-affected slop. Not worth getting excited about.

There's a bit of a shift around Thursday 20 August. The afternoon shows a bump in energy to 150 and a swell of 4ft from the SSE, with a short 6-second period, but the wind is a clean cross-off from the SW. It's still poor surf conditions, but the cleanest we'll see for a while. Friday 21 August has a moment of glassy conditions in the afternoon with 2ft from the ESE, but it's gone by the next morning.

The second week, from Sunday 24 August onward, looks similar. Small 1ft to 3ft swells, mostly from the SE, with a period that finally stretches to 11-12 seconds, which is a bit better. There are a few clean windows with cross-off or glassy winds on Monday 24 August morning, Tuesday 25 August morning, and Wednesday 26 August morning and afternoon. But the swell is just too small to get the heart pumping. The combined energy readings are still weak, in the 40s and 50s. For beginners, the tiny sizes are fine, but the wind and chop will make it frustrating.

Honestly, there's no standout session here. The best on offer might be the clean, glassy windows in the second week, but with waves barely 1ft, you're better off with a longboard or a funboard and just enjoying the peace. It's a tough run, but sometimes that's the nature of the area. Things can change, so keep an eye on the forecasts.

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.
