Table - best surf conditions forecast for North Point over the next 16 days.
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s see what we’ve got coming down the line.
We’re looking at a solid run of surf for North Point, but you’re gonna have to work for the good ones. The water is sitting at 66° right now, which is a full degree and a half warmer than usual for this time of year, so it’s a bit of a anomaly – noticeably mild.
The week kicks off on Monday the 13th. There’s size, no doubt, with a big 12ft groundswell rolling in from the southwest, and a very long 16-second period. The combined swell energy is massive at (6285), but the wind is light and onshore, so it’s not gonna be pretty. It’s a marginal one, and the swell might be a bit too much for beginners at that size.
Tuesday the 14th is where it starts to come together. The swell drops a touch to 10ft from the southwest, but the wind swings around to a light cross-offshore from the northeast. That’s going to clean things up nicely. The period is still long at 15 seconds, and the energy is still pumping (3813). This is heading into excellent condition territory for experienced surfers. The crowd factor is only *sometimes* an issue there, so you might get a few on it, but it’s well worth the paddle.
Wednesday the 15th sees the wind pick up hard from the north, cranking to 25 mph. That cross-offshore will keep the surface clean, but the swell is dropping to 7ft and the wind is strong. It’s going to be a battle. The energy is still decent (2915), but the conditions are marginal.
After a rough spell of messy, blown-out days with strong winds and building swell, we hit a bit of a lull. The period from the 17th through the 24th is mostly a write-off with poor surf conditions and onshore to cross-onshore winds making a mess of things. There are a few windows, like the morning of the 26th, where a clean 7ft southwest groundswell (4387 energy) lines up with light onshore wind, but it's still a marginal call.
If you’re looking for the standout, it’s absolutely Tuesday the 14th. That 10ft southwest swell, with the 15-second period and that lovely cross-offshore wind, is as good as it gets in this forecast. The surf will be clean, powerful, and well-shaped for a point break. Just be ready for a crowd if you’re late.
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.
