The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming down the line for Fox Hill Point.

Honestly, I’ve gotta be straight with you – this forecast window is a tough one. We’re looking at a long, dry spell with barely a ripple for the first week and a half. The good news? There’s a little pulse of energy trying to show up towards the very end, but you’ll need patience. The water temp is sitting around 66°F which is about average for this time of year, so at least you won’t be freezing while you’re waiting.

From Wednesday the 19th right through to Saturday the 29th of August, it’s a real desert. We’re talking tiny, weak swell – nothing over 3ft – and the energy levels are pathetic, hanging in the 20 to 71 range (weak). The wind is messy, often cross-on or onshore, and the wave comment just reads “poor surf conditions” day after day. No standouts, no hope. There’s a morning on Monday the 24th with a clean offshore wind from the west and a 12-second period, but the swell is only 1ft – you’d need a longboard and a lot of hope. That’s as good as it gets in that stretch, which says it all.

Then, on Saturday the 29th of August, things finally start to twitch. The swell bumps up to 5ft from the east, with combined energy jumping to 301 (moderate). That’s the first real sign of life, but unfortunately, the wind is a cross-onshore from the ENE at 12 mph, so it’s going to be choppy and jumbled. Still, for a reef setup that likes SE swell, that east direction isn’t a perfect match, and the period is a short 7 seconds, so the shape will be pretty average. Not a day to get excited about – maybe for the diehards only.

Sunday the 30th has a 4ft swell from the ENE, but it’s still chopped up by cross-shore winds. The first morning that actually has potential is Monday the 31st of August. The swell drops a bit to 3ft from the ENE, but the wind goes glassy in the morning – dead calm – and the wave comment finally admits it’s “surfable.” The energy is 113, still weak, but with those clean conditions, you might snag a few fun ones on a longboard or a fish.

After that, Tuesday the 1st of September and Wednesday the 2nd see the swell hold around 3ft to 2ft, but the wind turns onshore or cross-on again, so it’s back to ordinary. The period on Wednesday stretches to 10 seconds, which is better for shape, but the energy is dropping.

Honestly, if I had to pick the best of a bad bunch, it’s that Monday morning, the 31st of August. Glassy conditions and a small but surfable 3ft east swell. It won’t be epic, but it’ll be clean, and that’s gold when everything else is a write-off. For the rest of the 16-day outlook, chalk it up as a blank run. Fox Hill Point is a reef that needs a decent push from the SE to really work, and we’re just not getting it. Keep an eye on the forecasts though – things can change.

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.
