The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty. Let's be straight with you: the next 16 days around Fox Hill Point are looking pretty bleak. I’ve scanned the charts, and honestly, there’s nothing to get excited about. We’re looking at a long stretch of poor surf conditions stretching from the 24th of July all the way through to the 8th of August, with no real windows of quality. The swell is tiny, the wind is mostly junk, and the energy is weak.
The best we can say is that on the morning of the 26th of July, we get a bit of onshore wind with a 3 ft SE swell, but the period is a short 7 seconds, and the combined energy is only 76 (weak). Not worth the drive. The winds are onshore, so it’s not going to be clean. The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing unusual.
Through the rest of the period, it’s the same story. The swell stays small, rarely cracking 3 ft, and the period stays short, mostly 7 seconds. The wind is nearly always cross-onshore or onshore, keeping things choppy and messy. There are a few glassy moments, like the morning of the 2nd of August, but the swell is a pathetic 1 ft with a combined energy of just 35 (weak). That’s a flat spell, not a surf session.
The only slight uptick is on the 6th of August, where the afternoon sees a bump in swell to 5 ft, but it’s a short period windswell of 5 seconds, and the combined energy climbs to 114 (moderate). The wind is light cross-onshore, so it’s not clean, and the short period makes it a bumpy, jumbled mess. That’s a kite surfer’s day, not a paddle surfer’s.
For a fairly consistent reef break that needs a clean SE swell, this is a total blank run. It’s a tough spell, but in this area, a poor run like this is more normal than unusual. The forecasts can change, but right now, I’d leave the board at home.
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.
