The Lowdown
Hey, Rusty here. Looking at the next 16 days for Fox Hill Point… honestly, it’s a pretty grim stretch. There’s nothing on the table that I’d call surfable. The swell is tiny – mostly under 3 ft, and when it does bump up a bit, the wind isn’t cooperating. The best we see is a couple of afternoons with offshore wind but the waves are still knee-high. The water temp is 67°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s about the only highlight.
The first few days are hopeless: Friday the 17th has 0.3 ft of SE swell with a 14-second period, but it’s cross-offshore and just not enough. Saturday the 18th afternoon sees a pulse of 5 ft from the south, but it’s short period (6 seconds) and gusty SW wind at 22 mph – that’s messy and won’t hold shape. Sunday the 19th is clean but tiny.
The only moments that even come close are Wednesday the 22nd afternoon when the wind goes offshore from the WSW and there’s a 2 ft SE swell with a 10-second period, giving a combined energy of 112 – still tiny. And then Thursday the 23rd morning has a similar 3 ft SE swell with clean cross-off wind. But these are not rides you’d get out of bed for.
Later in the period, Friday the 31st morning has a 2 ft SE swell with offshore west wind and energy of 169, but it’s still marginal. After that, August 1st is onshore and small.
Given that Fox Hill Point is a fairly consistent reef break, it’s unusual to see such a long run of no surf. But the forecasts are showing a persistent lack of decent swell. I’d say keep an eye on it – it tends not to stay poor for long, and conditions can change. But for now, the board stays in the car.

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.
