The Lowdown

G’day, Rusty here, lookin’ at the Fox Hill Point forecast. Straight up, it’s a pretty quiet stretch for the next couple of weeks. Most of the window is filled with small, weak swells and onshore or cross-shore winds that just won’t let the place clean up properly. You’re lookin’ at a solid run of days where it’s either flat or just plain messy. There’s one little glimmer, though, so let’s get into it.

We start off with nothing for the first few days. Sunday the 19th and Monday the 20th have tiny swells, maybe 1ft to 2ft, with periods under 8 seconds, so that’s all windswell and no push. Wind is cross-offshore on Sunday, but the combined energy is only 46 and 32, so weak as dishwater. Monday afternoon gets a 2ft, 3-second spike from the SSE, but that’s a joke. Tuesday the 21st is even worse – onshore winds, bumpy, energy dropping to 16. Wednesday the 22nd morning cleans up a bit with a cross-offshore breeze, but that swell is still tiny at 4ft, 6 seconds, and energy is only 81. Not worth wetting the wetsuit.

Now, Wednesday afternoon on the 22nd is where it gets interesting. Swell jumps to 7ft from the SSE, period 8 seconds, and the combined energy spikes to 963 – that’s solid moderate-to-strong energy. The wind is a gentle cross-offshore, so the face stays clean. But there’s a catch: the surf report flags it as “marginal” due to tide or something, and the score is low. Still, for a reef break like Fox Hill Point, that’s a proper amount of water. At 7ft, this is only for experienced surfers – beginners, stay on the beach. It’s the standout of the whole run, but don’t expect perfection.

Thursday morning the 23rd is the next best thing. Glassy conditions, 4ft swell from the SE with a 9-second period, energy at 172. That’s a clean, surfable wave, but “very ordinary” according to the notes. It’s a decent session for the intermediate crew, but not a classic.

After that, it’s a long, slow fade. From Friday the 24th through to the end of the month, the swell drops back under 3ft most days, periods stay short, and winds are mostly onshore or cross-onshore. The combined energy sits between 60 and 141, so weak to moderate. The odd morning like Thursday the 30th has a clean offshore wind, but the swell is only 2ft to 3ft, not enough to ride. Friday the 31st morning gives a 3ft, 7-second swell with a gentle offshore breeze, energy 94 – again, clean but tiny.

Into August, the first two days are the same story: small, clean, but barely a ripple. Monday the 3rd of August morning has a 2ft, 7-second swell with a light cross-offshore wind, energy 48. It’s flat.

So, to sum it up: the only real standout is Wednesday afternoon, July 22nd, with that 7ft swell and clean cross-offshore winds. It’s a big, powerful wave for a reef, so grab your step-up if you’re game. The rest of the window is a write-off for most. Hang tight, the forecasts can change, but right now it’s a waiting game.

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.
