The Lowdown
Gather 'round, I'm Rusty. I've been looking over the numbers for North Point. This is a classic point break that only suits advanced surfers, and it's got a wild forecast ahead.
There's a ton of swell in the window, but the wind is going to be the enemy for most of it. The first call to action is Monday the 14th. Don't sleep on the Monday morning session - it's the pick of the early run.
Monday morning the 14th brings in a solid 12ft groundswell out of the WSW, with a 14-second period. That's proper juice. The combined energy is 4686, which is moderate. The wind is a clean cross-offshore from the SE at 9 mph, keeping the face smooth. The water temp is 65°, running about 2° warmer than average for this time of year. This is your session. The afternoon holds similar size but the wind gets stiffer, making it more of a handful.
Tuesday the 15th is still a good call. The swell drops a touch to 10ft from the WSW, but you get a clean offshore wind from the east at 9 mph in the morning. It'll be clean, powerful, and for the experienced crew, that’s a treat. The afternoon goes cross-shore and gets messy.
Then we hit a wall. From Wednesday the 16th all the way to the 24th, the wind is mostly cross, cross-on, or onshore. There's a brief moment Wednesday afternoon the 16th where it goes glassy on a 5ft swell, but the energy is weak (1097). After that, it's a long stretch of lumpy, choppy, onshore junk. The 25th and 26th flash massive numbers - we're talking 13ft to 18ft from the SW with periods up to 19 seconds. The wave energy is absolutely insane (21445 - very strong). But those waves are simply too big for this break, and the wind is still cross-on. That's a hard pass for paddle surfing.
The final days of the month, the 28th and 29th, look rough again with fresh, lumpy winds. It's a spot that fires when the stars align, but this forecast is mostly about being patient.
Rusty.

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.
