The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – the next couple of weeks are looking pretty bleak for a paddle. Let's break it down.
We're looking at Fox Hill Point, a reef setup that's exposed to the swell. Right now, and for the next week and a half, it's a total write-off. The swell is tiny, barely a ripple, with heights hovering around 0.7ft to 1ft and periods mostly under 8 seconds. The combined energy is weak, sitting in the single digits or low twenties (like 25 or 16). The forecast is calling it "poor surf conditions" right through, and I'm not gonna argue with that. There's a long stretch here from August 7th all the way through August 19th where there's just nothing worth getting wet for. For a spot that's fairly consistent, this is a proper dry spell.
Now, there is a glimmer way out on the horizon. On Thursday, August 20th, things might finally wake up. The swell bumps up to 5ft to 6ft from the East, with a period of 7 seconds. The combined energy kicks up to 672 (moderate) on the morning and 339 (moderate) in the afternoon. The wind is looking good, too – moderate offshore on the afternoon from the WNW at 15 mph, which should keep things clean. The morning is a cross-off, still clean. This is the only real standout in the whole 16-day run, but it's a long way off. It's a promising one, but keep your expectations in check for now – it's a long-range call.
Given the size (6ft), this is pushing into intermediate territory. The period is short, so it won't have that long-period grunt, but with the reef bottom, it should still offer up some shape. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
So, if you're desperate, keep an eye on that Thursday, August 20th window. Before that, it's a long wait for a wave that might not even show. The setup looks more interesting for a kite than a surfboard for most of this period.
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.
