The Lowdown
Alright surfers, Rusty here, and I’ve got to level with you. The next couple of weeks are looking slim for anything decent at Fox Hill Point. We’ve got one very specific window that might offer a glimmer of hope, but for the most part, this is a waiting game.
Right now and for the bulk of this run, the energy is just too weak and the wind is all wrong. We’re looking at small, wind-affected slop for days. The combined wave energy is hanging in the weak range, barely cracking 50-100 (53-89), and the swell directions are all cross-on or onshore messing things up. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing weird there.
Starting Monday morning, August 31st, we get a bit of a pulse. The swell will be from the SSE around 4ft, and while the period is short at 5 seconds, the wind will be light and cross-off, making things clean. The combined energy jumps a bit (89) but it’s still only "surfable but very ordinary." The crowd here is often around, so you might have company for those small, crumbly waves.
The afternoon of the 31st sees the swell height jump to 6ft with a combined energy of 265, but the wind swings cross-shore and it gets choppy, making it a write-off. That’s not a standout, just a tease.
There’s a sniff of something better on Friday, September 4th. The morning shows a 6ft SSE swell (combined 168) with clean cross-off winds. The afternoon pushes it to 6ft (combined 266), still clean from the SSW. For a point break like Fox Hill, that’s a decent little groundswell pulse, but the period is still short at 6 seconds, so it won’t have that heavy, walling power. This is the only window worth paddling for, but expectations should be realistic. It’s a “promising but not certain” long-range signal.
Honestly, the rest of the forecast is flat or messy. For an exposed reef like Fox Hill, this is a pretty typical, quiet period. If you’re desperate for a wave, the small clean windows on the 31st and 4th of September are your only tickets.
Stay patient.
Rusty.

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.
