The Lowdown
Well, let me tell ya, it's a bit of a frustrating stretch ahead for Fox Hill Point. This spot is a reef break that's fairly consistent, but the whole 16-day window is a total write-off. There's not a single day where the surf is worth paddling out for. The combination of small, weak swell and poor wind conditions is a real downer.
The water temp is sitting at 61° right now, which is a whopping 5° colder than usual for this time of year. That's a seriously cold anomaly, so you'll be needing a thick wetsuit if you even think about it.
Looking at the immediate run, from Monday 27th July right through to the end of the first week, it's all just poor. The swell is tiny, mostly around 2ft to 3ft with short periods of 5-8 seconds, and the combined energy is weak, hovering around 63 to 74. The wind is a relentless cross-onshore, leaving the surface choppy and messy. Tuesday 28th July afternoon sees a bump in swell height to 6ft, but with a period of only 5 seconds and a moderate cross-onshore, it's just lumpy, sloppy junk. The energy picks up a bit on Wednesday 29th July afternoon, hitting 392 (moderate energy), but with 7ft of short-period swell (7 seconds) and a fresh cross-onshore in heavy rain, that's a no-go. It’s more of a kite-surfing scenario than a paddling one.
The whole first week is a gap of nothing but frustration. The second week doesn't offer any relief. From Saturday 1st August onwards, the swell drops to knee-high or below, with the occasional 3ft showing on Monday 3rd August afternoon. The energy is negligible, with values mostly in the teens and twenties. The wind does go glassy or clean a couple of times, like on Monday 3rd August afternoon and Sunday 9th August morning, but with no swell to push, it's a flat, pretty lake.
There's a brief moment on Thursday 6th August morning with a 4ft swell from the SSE and a clean cross-offshore wind, but the energy is only 103 (weak) and the period is a short 6 seconds. It's still not enough to get excited about.
So, honestly, there's nothing to highlight. The best I can say is to keep your gear dry and wait for a better forecast. This is a proper blank run.

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.
