The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, checking out what we’ve got lined up over the next couple of weeks. Let’s be real with each other: this stretch isn't going to set the world on fire. There’s a long, dry gap right from the start. The first surf worth paddling out for doesn't show up until Tuesday the 27th, and even that’s borderline.
The overall pattern is weak and small. After that first marginal window, there’s a brief flicker of something better on the 28th, and then it fades back into tiny stuff. You’ll need to be patient.
The standout window in this outlook is Friday morning, August 28th at Fox Hill Point. We get a little 2ft SE swell riding in on a 10 second period, giving it some decent shape for a reef break. The combined swell energy is moderate at 117, so there's some push. But the real winner is the wind: a crisp offshore from the WSW at 10 km/h. That’s clean, lined-up surf, and for a spot that’s exposed to the SE, this is about as good as it gets in this run. It’s an intermediate-level wave, so if you’ve got the skills, this is your morning.
The water temperature is sitting at about 68°F, which is pretty much normal for this time of year, so you won’t need a thick suit.
Before that, Tuesday afternoon, August 25th briefly pumps up to 4ft from the ESE, but the period is a short 5 seconds, making it weak and walled up. Wind is cross-shore, so it’s messy. And Wednesday the 26th shows 5ft from the NE, but with a 6-second period and choppy wind, it’s a slog.
Sunday afternoon, August 30th does get glassy calm winds, with a 2ft SE swell, but it’s barely breaking. You could get a fun little one, but it’s not worth planning around.
Bottom line: Friday morning the 28th is the pick. The rest is for the die-hards or the kite crew when it gets windy and bumpy.
Stay patient, keep your eyes on the horizon.
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.
