The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's get real about what's on the menu for the Fox Hill Point area over the next couple of weeks.

To be straight with you, the first week and a half is a tough slog. We've got a reef break that's fairly consistent, but it's going to be starved for swell. The water's sitting at a touch warmer than normal, 20°, so that's nice, but there's just no push. For the first several days, the waves are barely a ripple. Friday the 17th has a measly 0.3ft of swell from the SE, and the combined energy is a weak 11. Saturday morning isn't any better, with 0.7ft from the ESE. It's a flat spell. You'll be staring at a lake for a few days.

The first real sign of life comes Sunday morning, July 19th, but even then we're looking at a tiny 2ft from the SSE with a period of just 6 seconds—that's short-period wind slop, not groundswell. The energy is still only 42. It's clean, with a cross-offshore wind from the NW, but it's just not enough to get excited about. Monday morning the 20th is glassy, but again, it's only 1.0ft. There's a gap here where nothing really works.

Now, hold on to your boards because things start to get interesting later in the week. Wednesday the 22nd, the swell kicks up a notch. Afternoon sees 5ft of SE swell, with a period of 7 seconds, and the combined energy jumps to 303 (moderate wave energy). The wind is a gentle cross-offshore from the SW. It's a marginal day, but it's the best we've seen. You might get a few fun ones if you're patient.

The most promising period is actually Thursday morning, July 23rd. We've got 3ft of SE swell, but the period stretches to 8 seconds, which is a better shape. The combined energy is 129. This is reef break, so that longer period will help it stand up. The killer detail is the wind: light breeze from the west, straight offshore. That's going to groom the faces into clean lines. For a reef point known for its optimal swell direction from the SE, this is the best alignment. It's a surfable session, but nothing huge. The score is a 1, but with that offshore wind, it's the pick of the lot.

After that, we dip back into the doldrums. The 24th through the 31st of July is a mix of tiny swell and onshore winds. The water stays warm, but the waves don't cooperate. There's a chance for a glassy morning on the 26th with 3ft from the SE, but it's inconsistent. The 27th has a glassy afternoon but only 1ft.

The long-range stuff into the start of August is looking flatter again. Saturday the 1st has 30 km/h winds from the SSE, which is a fresh breeze making lumpy conditions. Not worth a paddle.

So, the stand out? It's got to be Thursday morning, July 23rd. It's not a big swell, but the 3ft clean SE groundswell with light offshore wind at Fox Hill Point is the only time the stars align for a decent session. The reef will handle the swell, and the wind will make it look much better than the size suggests. It's a quiet, uncrowded beginner option, but if you're an intermediate, it's worth a look.

Fox Hill Point is the only break on the list, and it's a reef. It's fairly consistent, but this forecast shows a blank run of tiny surf for most of the period. That's not unusual for this area; it tends to be a "wait for it" kind of spot.

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.
