G’day, Rusty here. Looks like things are gonna take a little while to fire up at North Point. There’s nothing worth paddling out for on Sunday the 5th—messy onshore winds and lumpy junk. We’ve got a bit of a wait, but when it kicks, it kicks.
Monday the 6th morning sees the first real pulse: a solid 12ft WSW groundswell rolling in with a clean 15-second period. The wind’s a cross-off from the SE at 16 mph, so it should be pretty clean. Combined energy is up there at 5163, so there’s plenty of grunt. That’s proper heavy—only for experienced surfers. This is a standout window early in the week.
Tuesday the 7th morning is where it really shines. Same 12ft SW swell, but the period bumps to 16 seconds, and the wind drops to a light 6 mph cross-off from the SE. Combined energy is through the roof at 6016, and it’s glassing up nicely. This is the pick of the first week—clean, powerful, and the direction is right on the optimum from the SW. North Point offers up long, drawn-out lines at this point. Crowds are sometimes an issue here, so keep an eye out.
The water temp is sitting at 67° which is about average for the time of year, nothing unusual there.
Wednesday the 8th morning keeps the run going: 12ft WSW at a very long 17-second period, light offshore from the N at 6 mph. Clean again, but the period is so long the waves might wall up a bit—best on a point break like this. Excellent for the crew who know what they’re doing.
We get a bit of a dog-leg Thursday the 9th and Friday the 10th—wind swings onshore and the quality drops off. Saturday the 11th is still lumpy cross-shore with big 13ft swell—not pretty, but maybe worth a look if you’re desperate.
Then Sunday the 12th afternoon is another standout: 12ft SW, 17-second groundswell, combined energy of 7101. Light cross-off from the SE. That’s exceptional, clean power. Experts only.
Monday the 13th afternoon is magic: 7ft SW, 18-second period, and glassy—like, totally flat calm. Combined energy at 4030, and it’s a proper glass-off. That’s a quiet, clean session for the experienced crew.
Tuesday the 14th stays solid with 10ft SW, 16 seconds, and light cross-off from the NNE. Still clean, still punchy.
The second week gets a bit more mixed. Wednesday the 15th onward sees wind issues again—Thursday the 16th offers a 10ft SW with cross-off from the SE, but the period drops to 11 seconds. Still rideable, but not as special. Friday the 17th has 12ft SW with a better 16-second period and gentle cross-off, keeping it clean.
Saturday the 18th morning still has 10ft SW, 14 seconds, clean with light cross-off. Good but not the top tier.
Sunday the 19th is a write-off—strong onshore winds and big messy surf.
Monday the 20th has 10ft SW, 15-second period, but only cross-shore wind. You’ll find some, but it’s not the clean stuff.
So the true standouts are Tuesday the 7th morning for that epic combo of size, period, and glassy conditions, and then Monday the 13th afternoon for that rare glass-off with long period swell. If you’re experienced, those are the sessions to circle.
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.
