The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it.
We’ve got a 16-day window, and honestly, the first week is a bit of a write-off at North Point. The wind is howling from the wrong directions and the swell is getting hammered by cross-onshore winds. It’s gonna be a grim, messy run for a good while. The big energy is there, but it’s not doing us any favours.
The real standout is a very specific window on the morning of Tuesday, the 8th of September. That’s the one to circle. We’re looking at a solid 15ft groundswell from the SW, with a very long period of 19 seconds, and the wind is light and offshore from the ENE. That’s a recipe for perfection. The combined energy is massive at 14232, and the conditions are described as exceptional for expert surfers. This is a powerful, clean swell, and with that period, it’s going to be lining up beautifully at the point. The water is about average for this time of year.
However, this is an advanced spot, and with 15ft of swell, it’s strictly for the experienced crew. It’s fairly consistent, but expect crowds because it can get busy there. The swell direction from the SW is bang on the optimum for North Point.
The rest of the second week is a bit of a mixed bag. There’s another promising signal on the morning of Thursday, the 10th of September, with a 7ft WSW groundswell, a 16-second period, and glassy conditions. Combined energy is 2570, and it’s classed as excellent for experienced surfers. That’s a much more manageable size, but still quality. The morning of Sunday, the 13th, also looks clean with a 10ft WSW swell and a 15-second period, with a light offshore wind. The energy is 4734, and it’s excellent for experienced surfers again.
The 17th of September morning has a big 13ft swell with a 16-second period and glassy winds, but that’s a long way off, so keep an eye on it. The energy is a hefty 7678.
So, bottom line: the first week is a right-off with the wind. The absolute best on offer is the morning of the 8th of September for the big, powerful stuff. For a cleaner, slightly smaller option, the morning of the 10th of September is a solid back-up.
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.
