The Lowdown
Hey, Rusty here. We got a look at Fox Hill Point, a reef that needs a decent south-east push to work. Water is 66°F, exactly where it should be for the season.
Right now there’s nothing. For the whole stretch through the 30th of August, it’s flat – tiny swell, combined energy barely ticking up to a weak 104, and the wind is mostly side-shore or onshore. Not worth paddling.
The first real movement shows up a week out. Thursday the 3rd of September morning has a 5ft SE swell with a 15-second period, and the energy jumps to 1648. But the wind’s cross-onshore from the NE, so the surface gets choppy. That’s the opener, but not the peak.
Best of the bunch – wait for Friday the 4th of September afternoon. Fox Hill Point gets 6ft from the ESE, period 14 seconds, combined energy a strong 1989. Light cross-off wind out of the SW keeps it clean. That’s a proper session for experienced surfers. The morning of the 4th is also good, 7ft from the ESE with a clean cross-off from the NNW.
After that it slips back – Saturday the 5th has 4ft ESE with a 11-second period, clean but much lower energy. Sunday the 6th drops further.
There’s a gap of more than a week before that Thursday the 3rd pulse hits. The reef needs that long-period groundswell to line up right, and when it does on the 4th, it’s the one to go for.
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.
