Fox Hill Point Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s on the menu for the next couple of weeks. Right now, things are looking pretty flat for a stretch, but there’s a couple of windows that could get interesting, especially if you’re patient.

The first good surf on offer isn't until Wednesday morning, July 22nd. Before that, Monday and Tuesday are just a write-off – tiny, messy, and not worth paddling out for. From Wednesday morning, we see a bit of life. Fox Hill Point is a reef setup, fairly consistent, and it’s exposed to the swell. The water is sitting at 63°F, which is a bit colder than usual for this time of year, so you might want a spring suit.

Wednesday morning, July 22nd, brings a clean 5ft swell from the SSE with a period of 7 seconds, and a light cross-offshore wind. The combined energy is moderate, reading 309. It’s not huge, but it’s clean and surfable. Wednesday afternoon loses a little size and the energy drops to 156, but it’s still rideable, though conditions are just ordinary.

The standout for this first week is Thursday morning, July 23rd. We’ve got a clean 4ft swell from the SSE, but the period jumps to 10 seconds, giving it proper shape and push. The wind is offshore from the W at 12 mph, keeping it glassy. The combined energy is solid at 267. This is the morning to be out there. The swell direction is a decent match for the optimum, and the reef setup will handle that longer period nicely. Just be aware it’s a spot that can get crowded. Thursday afternoon stays clean but the size drops off and the wind swings a bit.

After that, things go quiet again. From Friday, July 24th, through to the end of the month, we’re looking at small, weak, and mostly onshore or cross-shore junk. The combined energy readings are mostly in the 50-80 range, which is just background noise. There’s a gap of about four days with no real recommendations.

The next flicker of hope comes on Tuesday morning, July 28th. The swell bumps up to 6ft from the SSE, with a period of 7 seconds – that’s a bit short and punchy. The energy is strong at 613, but it’s a bit raw for the reef. The wind is cross-off, so it’s clean, but the size and short period mean it’s more for the experienced crew. 6ft is pushing beyond beginner territory. Tuesday afternoon, the wind goes glassy, the swell settles to 5ft, and the energy is 211 – that’s a much more inviting window, but still a bit lumpy for a learner.

The final bright spot is Sunday afternoon, August 2nd. That’s a week and a half out, so take it with a grain of salt, but the models are hinting at a clean 5ft swell from the SSE, with light wind. The energy is 209. It’s a promising setup for a Sunday session, but it’s a long-range call.

The best of the whole outlook? I’d say Thursday morning, July 23rd, is the one to circle. Clean, offshore, nice groundswell pulse, and the reef will be doing its thing. The Tuesday afternoon, July 28th, glass-off is a solid second option, but it’s a bit more raw.

Rusty.
