The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk Fox Hill Point. It’s a reef set-up that likes a bit of SE swell, but we’ve got a long stretch of nothing much to start.
Fox Hill Point
From Monday the 17th of August, it’s a dead run for nearly ten days. Tiny waves, short periods, and mostly cross or cross-onshore breezes keeping everything messy. The energy numbers are low, between 55 and 101, so there’s nothing to get excited about. Don’t even think about paddling out until later.
We get a little sign of life on the morning of Tuesday the 27th of August. Swell is just 0.6m from the SE, but the period stretches out to 12 seconds, and the energy jumps to 205. Wind is light and onshore, so not perfect, but that’s a real groundswell pulse trying to get through. It’s borderline, but for a reef that can handle that direction, it’s worth a peek on the glassy low tide.
The best session of the whole forecast is shaping up for Saturday the 30th of August in the morning. Swell builds to 1.3m from the ESE, period of 10 seconds, and combined energy of 305. That’s a proper little pulse. Wind is light and cross-shore, so the waves will have some shape. It’s not huge, but for Fox Hill it’s the clear winner. The afternoon gets ruined by stronger cross-onshore wind.
Water temp is about normal for the season, nothing unusual to report.
So, bottom line: the first week and a half is a blank. The best chance of a wave is the morning of Saturday the 30th of August. That’s your window.

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.

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.
