The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty comin' at ya live from the lineup. Let's get into it.
We've got a massive, building swell train headed our way, but it's gonna take a little while to get organised. The first few days are a real mixed bag with some decent but not perfect waves, and then it looks like the whole place goes gangbusters for a solid week. Get ready.
Saturday the 25th is a bit of a write-off. There's some swell in the water, but the morning is a cross-off, lumpy mess with a 19 mph northerly. Not worth paddling out.
Sunday the 26th is a hard pass. The wind is howling onshore from the WSW, and the swell is absolutely massive, well over 15 ft. That's big, dangerous, and blown out. Leave it.
Monday the 27th is a steady improvement. The swell is still a solid 10 ft plus from the SW, but the wind is coming cross-shore, not directly on it. The conditions are still a bit lumpy, but it's a world away from Sunday. A session for the hardy, experienced crew only.
Now, this is where it gets good. Tuesday the 28th is the first real standout. The wind goes glassy offshore from the ENE in the morning, and we've got a powerful 10 ft SW groundswell. The combined energy is a massive 3514! This is clean, powerful, and perfect for advanced surfers. It's a bit much for the beginners, but for the rest of us, it's game on. And the water temp? It's feeling about average for this time of year, so no nasty surprises.
Wednesday the 29th is absolute magic. The morning is clean with a light NNE breeze, but the afternoon is the real winner. The wind goes glassy, absolutely dead calm, and the swell is a punchy 7 ft from the SW with a very long 16-second period. The energy is pumping (3436). This is the kind of glassy, clean, lined-up point surf that dreams are made of.
Thursday the 30th keeps the run going. The morning is clean with a 7 ft SW swell, perfect for more of the same quality. The afternoon gets a bit of a cross-on breeze, so aim for the morning.
Friday the 31st afternoon is another massive standout. The swell is 8 ft from the SW, but the period jumps to a ludicrous 21 seconds, giving us a combined energy of 7602. That's a ton of energy. The wind is a clean cross-off. This is going to be a very long-period, powerful groundswell that will be at its absolute best here at the point. It will be a serious session for serious surfers.
Now, the first week of August sees the swell get even bigger, but the wind becomes a problem. Saturday the 1st has a massive 13 ft swell, but it's a bit wind-affected. It's a testament to the size that the score is still high, but it won't be the perfection of the week prior.
From Sunday the 2nd to Thursday the 7th, the wind is a real issue. It's onshore or cross-onshore, and the swell is constantly over 8 ft. This is a period of big, messy, blown-out surf. The energy is there, but the quality is gone. It's a long stretch of poor conditions.
The run ends on Saturday the 8th and Sunday the 9th of August with a final burst of huge, clean-ish swell. The wind is cross-shore, and the swell is a solid 15 ft. The energy is off the charts (13505). It's a long-range hope, but if the forecast holds, it could be a massive, clean, final day for the crew who know what they're doing.
Overall, the clear winner is the period from Tuesday 28th July through to Friday 31st July. That's the window. Get it while it's good.

Information about the North Point Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for North Point provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at North Point can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our North 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 (North 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 North 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.
North Point is 83 km (52 miles) from the city of Bunbury. If you plan a holiday in Margaret River, look for hotels and other accommodation in Bunbury. Bunbury has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
