Righto, grab a coffee and let's have a look at what's coming down the pipe for North Point over the next couple of weeks.
It’s a bit of a slow start, but the wait is worthwhile for the experienced crew. The first real action we see kicks off on Monday, July 7th, with a solid swell pushing through. You're looking at a 12ft groundswell out of the SW with a long 16-second period, and a clean, light cross-off breeze on the Tuesday morning. The water temp is sitting about average for the time of year. This is proper, powerful stuff, and the combined wave energy is massive at 6009 (moderate to strong). This one’s for the advanced surfers only – over 8ft, it’s a paddling mission and not for the faint of heart. Crowds are possible here.
Then, Wednesday morning, July 8th, is a real standout. We’ve got a 10ft SW groundswell from the WSW, a very long 17-second period, and the wind goes glassy – dead flat, offshore from the NW. The combined energy is pumping at 5893 (moderate to strong), and the conditions are described as glassy. This is as clean as it gets for a point break, and those long-period lines will wrap in beautifully. Another one strictly for the experts.
The end of the first week and into the second gets messy. From Thursday the 9th through the weekend, the wind swings onshore and the quality drops right off – strong breezes and rain. The swell hangs around, but it’s a choppy, blown-out mess. There is a big 15ft swell on Saturday the 11th, but with a moderate cross-onshore wind, it’s just a washing machine. Kite surfers might be having a ball, but for a paddle surfer, it’s a no-go.
Things settle down nicely later in the second week. Monday morning, July 20th, sees a clean 7ft SW groundswell with a gentle offshore breeze from the ENE, and the combined energy is a moderate 1784. Tuesday the 21st is even better – a clean 7ft SW swell going glassy with absolutely no wind in the afternoon. Both of these are described as excellent conditions for experienced surfers, and the crowds are only possible. That’s as good as it gets for cleaner, more manageable waves.
So, to boil it down: grab Wednesday morning, July 8th for the best of the best if you’re an advanced surfer. If you want something a little less heavy but still clean, pencil in Monday morning, July 20th and Tuesday afternoon, July 21st. The long-range stuff is promising, but keep an eye on the wind.

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.
