The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again, breaking it down in feet and Fahrenheit.
Honestly, for the next 16 days, Fox Hill Point is a tough nut to crack. The swell is inconsistent and the wind is almost always on the wrong side of the wave. The first week is a total write-off for any kind of quality surf.
It starts on Tuesday, July 28th, with a cross-onshore wind from the SSE at 12 mph, spoiling a 4ft SE swell. The combined energy is weak at 157, and the water is a chilly 61°F, which is 5°F colder than normal for this time of year – that’s a very unusual drop. The period is a short 7 seconds, so it’s just choppy, wind-blown slop. This same messy pattern sticks around for days. Thursday the 30th brings a bit more size, with a 6ft to 7ft ENE swell, but the energy jumps to a moderate 415, and with a fresh 19 mph cross-onshore wind, it’s lumpy and blown out. This is more of a kite session than a surf session.
The first week of August sees the swell drop to barely 1ft, with combined energy as low as 29. The wind is still messy. The one single bright spot comes on the morning of Saturday, August 8th. We finally get a clean window with a light SW wind at 6 mph, making it cross-offshore. The conditions are described as “clean.” The swell is tiny, just 1ft from the SE with a period of 7 seconds, so the wave energy is very weak at 16. It’s not going to be a classic, but if you’ve got a longboard and low expectations, that’s your best chance. The next morning, Sunday, August 9th, also offers a clean moment with a light offshore E wind at 3 mph, but the swell is a mere 0.7ft.
So, the standout for the whole 16 days? There’s no real standout. The only two sessions worth mentioning are the mornings of the 8th and 9th of August. The 8th gets the nod for the clean conditions, even with the tiny swell. The 9th has the glassy offshore wind, but the swell is even smaller. Fox Hill Point is a reef break that’s fairly consistent, but with this forecast, it’s going to be a lot of waiting for very little reward. The crowds are often there, but you’ll probably have the place to yourself on these days.

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.
