The Lowdown

G’day, Rusty here. We’ve got a solid 16-day window ahead for North Point, and there’s plenty of action to unpack. The first few days bring clean, powerful swell, but it gets wild and blown out later on. Let’s get into it.

We kick off from Monday afternoon, 27 July, with a 10ft SW swell at 12 seconds, but it’s a bit messy with onshore wind and a cross-chop. The water’s sitting at 66°F, which is about average for this time of year. Not the best to start, but the real good stuff is right around the corner.

Tuesday morning, 28 July, is where it starts to fire. The same 10ft SW swell has jumped to a 14-second period, and with a light cross-offshore breeze from the ESE, the conditions clean right up. The wave energy is pumping at 3549 (moderate to strong). This is a standout session for experienced surfers only—10ft is pushing into expert territory, but the long period groundswell will line up beautifully at this point break. Crowds are possible, so get in early.

Wednesday morning, 29 July, sees the swell easing slightly to 8ft SW at 13 seconds, with a gentle cross-offshore breeze from the NE. The wave energy is still strong at 2823. It’s clean again, and while the size is a touch more manageable, it’s still a solid paddle for most. The consistency is there, and the offshore flow keeps the face smooth. Another good morning for the experienced crew.

Thursday, 30 July, offers clean, glassy conditions with a 6ft SW swell in the morning, dropping to 6ft by afternoon. The period stays at 14 seconds, and the wind is a light cross-offshore from the NNE. The energy is still moderate at 1710 to 1818. This is the sweet spot for a wider range of surfers—still plenty of grunt from the long period, but the size is more forgiving. The clear skies and gentle breeze make it a ripper day.

Now, Friday, 31 July, things turn ugly. A new pulse pushes the swell to 12ft SW with a 17-second period, but the wind is a strong onshore 19 mph from the NW, then 25 mph from the WNW in the afternoon. It’s lumpy, messy, and dangerous. The energy is massive—6398 to 7761—but the conditions are pure junk. Stay out of the water.

Saturday, 1 August, the swell jacks up to 15ft SW at 14 seconds, but winds are still cross-shore from the SSE, creating a chop. The energy is extreme at 8575. This is a big, ugly day for paddle surfing, but with the wind and size, it might be a better day for the kite crew. There’s a glimmer of hope for Sunday morning, 2 August, when the swell drops to 12ft SW at 14 seconds, and a clean offshore breeze from the ENE kicks in. The energy is still strong at 4943, and the conditions are clean. For the experienced, this is another standout—clean, powerful, and lined up.

Monday, 3 August, glassy morning with a 8ft SW swell at 14 seconds, and the wind is dead calm from the NNW. The energy is moderate at 2444. This is a fantastic session for the advanced crowd, with clean, glassy faces and long period lines. The afternoon sees the wind shift onshore, but the morning is pure gold.

The following week gets mixed. Tuesday, 4 August, has a 10ft SW swell at an 18-second period—very long period groundswell—with a cross-shore breeze. The energy is strong at 6296, but the wind isn’t perfect. The rest of the week sees the swell dropping and the wind turning onshore, making it marginal. The best bet in the second week is Sunday, 9 August, when a 10ft SW swell at 13 seconds meets a light offshore wind from the ENE. The energy is 2880, and the conditions are clean. It’s promising but less certain a week out.

From Monday, 10 August, through to Tuesday, 11 August, the swell varies but the wind turns nasty again. The standout in the second week is the Sunday morning session—clean, strong, and worth keeping an eye on if the forecast holds.

Overall, the best sessions are Tuesday morning, 28 July, and Sunday morning, 2 August, with the glassy Monday morning, 3 August, as a top pick for clean conditions. The first week has the most reliable, solid surf. The second week has a few promising windows, but the wind is more of a gamble.

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.
