The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. I've been staring at the maps for the next sixteen days, and I'll be honest with you, it's a tough stretch. There's a whole heap of flat and messy days ahead. We're talking a big gap of over a week and a half with nothing worth your time. The first real chance doesn't come until the 20th of August.
The only spot on the radar is Fox Hill Point, a reef break that's fairly consistent. But even there, the first twelve days are a total washout. It's a grim start.
Now, let's talk about the one and only bright spot. On Thursday, the 20th of August, the morning is looking like the real deal. You'll get a clean offshore wind from the west at 9 mph, glazing up Fox Hill Point. The swell will be a solid 5ft from the SSE, with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy of all the swells is moderate at 231. It's a perfect size for most surfers, and the wind will make it look like a pool. The water temperature is about 67°F, which is pretty average for the time of year, so no stress there.
That Thursday morning is the true standout. The rest of the day, and the days that follow, drop back into the ordinary category. The wind kicks up on the Thursday afternoon to a cross-offshore from the NW at 16 mph, which will still be okay but not as clean. Later in the week, on Friday the 21st, we get a glassy morning with a tiny 2ft swell, but it's just too weak to get excited about.
So, here's the plan. Don't even bother looking at the ocean until the 20th. That Thursday morning is your only real window. The rest of it is a waiting game, plain and simple.
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.
