The Lowdown
Alright gang, Rusty here with the lowdown on Fox Hill Point.
To be honest, this 16-day run is a tough nut to crack. We’ve got a big stretch of nothing happening for the first week and a half. Starting Tuesday 28 July all the way through Monday 3 August, the swell is puny – under 1.0ft, mostly 1.0ft to 2ft – and the wind is all over the place, cross-onshore and choppy. Combined wave energy is weak, from the teens to the seventies. The swell is coming from the SE, which is the right direction for this reef, but there’s just no juice. The water temp is about normal for the season.
That gap runs for days. From Tuesday 4 August through Thursday 6 August, we’re looking at waves barely 1.0ft to 2ft, with energy in the teens and twenties. Not worth paddling out for.
The first real bright spot is Friday 7 August. On Friday morning, we’ve got a weak 3ft SE swell, but the wind shifts to SW at 15 km/h, making it cross-offshore and clean. The energy is still low at 45, but it’s clean. Then Friday afternoon – boom – the wind goes dead calm, 0 km/h from the WNW. The wave comment says “glassy.” The swell is still only 3ft from the SE, so it’s a small day, but with a glassy surface, it’s the best of the whole run. Grab a longboard.
Saturday 8 August and Sunday 9 August keep the glassy moments, especially Saturday morning with 0 km/h from the SSE, and Sunday morning with a light NE breeze, also glassy. The swell is tiny – 2ft to 2ft – and the energy is weak (42 to 64), but it’s clean. For beginners or a lazy session, it’s fine.
The tail end, from Monday 10 August to Wednesday 12 August, stays clean with offshore winds, but the swell drops even more, to 1.0ft to 2ft. The energy is in the 20s and 30s. It’s flat, but it’s clean flat.
So the standout is Friday 7 August afternoon. Glassy, 3ft SE swell. It’s small, but it’s the cleanest of the entire forecast. If you’re on a big board, that’s your moment.
Rusty, out.

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.
