The Lowdown
Righto, let’s have a look at what’s on the table for Fox Hill Point.
Honestly, the next week and a half is a bit of a fizzer, with just tiny, weak lumps. The first real pulse of energy that’s worth paddling out for doesn’t arrive until Monday the 17th of August. That morning, we get a jump in the swell to 5ft from the NE, with a short period around 5 seconds. The combined energy hits 191, which is moderate, but conditions are just ordinary. The wind is light and cross-offshore from the NW, so it’ll be clean. It’s not a standout, but it’s the first wave that’s actually surfable in a long dry spell.
The best bet in the whole 16-day window? That’s got to be Tuesday the 18th of August. The swell drops back to 2ft from the E, but the wind goes glassy, dead calm, and the break is clean. It’s tiny, but those glassy conditions will make it fun for a longboard or a fish. The combined energy is only 51, so it’s weak, but for a clean session on a small day, you can’t ask for much more.
Then there’s a tease on the 22nd of August – Saturday morning. Swell bumps up to 4ft from the SSE, period is a short 6 seconds, but the energy is moderate at 111. The wind is light cross-off from the SW, so it’s clean. It’s surfable, but not huge. Consider that a solid option if you’re desperate for a wave.
Overall, the water should be about average for the time of year, nothing wild. The break is fairly consistent, but most days the swell is just too small. The 17th and 22nd are the only real windows for a proper paddle. The rest is flat, small, or blown out. Don’t expect any hero waves.

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.
