The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, let's break it down.
We’ve only got one break on the radar this time: North Point. It’s an advanced point break, pretty consistent, but don’t expect much in the way of quality for the first week or so. We’ve got a long stretch of messy, blown-out conditions that’s hard to get excited about.
The water temp is about average for this time of year, so your usual wetsuit will do.
The first real window worth talking about arrives on Monday the 14th in the morning. That’s when we start seeing the potential. The swell is a solid 12 ft, pushing in from the WSW with a nice 14-second period—true groundswell energy, carrying moderate to strong power (combined energy of 4986). The wind is a gentle offshore from the east, so the lineup should be clean. This is one for experienced surfers only; that size gets serious.
Tuesday the 15th morning brings another standout. The swell drops a little to 10 ft from the WSW, but the period is still a quality 14 seconds. What makes this special is the wind going absolutely glassy—just a 3 mph breeze from the south. That’s going to be smooth, clean faces. Energy is still strong (3815). Again, experts only, but if you can handle the size, this is the pick of the week.
After that, the wind starts to get messy again, with a few days of cross and onshore slop. The swell stays on the smaller side, 6 ft to 8 ft, and the quality drops right off.
But hold on—there's light at the end of the tunnel. On Thursday the 24th afternoon and through Friday the 25th morning, we get another good window. Both sessions show 8 ft groundswell from the SW with a 15-second pulse, and a clean offshore wind. Energy is moderate to strong (3317 and 2872). These are excellent conditions for experienced surfers, and the consistency looks solid.
If I had to pick the two true standouts from the whole run, it’s Tuesday the 15th morning with that glassy 10 ft swell, and Friday the 25th morning with the 8 ft clean offshore lines. The point should handle the long period well—these swells will wrap in nicely and offer proper shape.
Be aware that crowds are possible here if it gets good, so get in early.
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.
