The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what North Point has in store for us.
Alright, North Point... we've got a bit of a mixed bag coming our way over the next 16 days. The water temp is sitting at 65°, which is about a degree and a half warmer than normal for this time of year, so that's a nice little bonus. The energy levels in the water are going to be all over the shop, from moderate to absolutely pumping, so we need to pick our moments.
Right off the bat, the first few days are a write-off. Friday the 4th and Saturday the 5th are blown out with fresh cross-onshore winds and lumpy, choppy conditions. We're looking at a decent 16ft of WSW swell on the Friday, but it's pretty much unsurfable.
Things start to look up on Monday the 7th. The morning session is the standout of the first week. We've got a solid 12ft of SW groundswell with a very long 16-second period, and the wind is a clean, gentle cross-off breeze. This is prime North Point territory – that long-period groundswell will wrap in nicely and the wave energy is strong (6307). This is for experienced surfers only, though; that size is no joke. The afternoon on Monday gets a bit chopped up, but the morning is the call.
Tuesday the 8th is another good one. The swell bumps up a little to 13ft from the WSW, still with that very long period, clean conditions in the morning and a moderate breeze in the arvo. This is proper, powerful surf.
The pick of the bunch might actually be Wednesday the 9th. The swell drops back to a more manageable 10ft from the WSW, but the wind turns offshore from the NE in the morning, giving us clean, lined-up waves. Wave energy is still solid (4580). The afternoon goes glassy with a slight cross-off breeze. This is the day you want to be in the water if you want a slightly less intimidating, but still excellent, session.
The second week gets a bit wild. We get a pulse of huge energy mid-week, but it's accompanied by howling onshore winds, so a total no-go. Keep your eye on Tuesday the 15th. The morning is glassy with an 12ft SW groundswell and a clean 13-second period. It’s an excellent session for experienced surfers, and the calm conditions will make it a dream.
For the real standout, I'm torn between the offshore morning of the 9th and that glassy morning of the 15th. For pure quality and form, give me Wednesday the 9th. For a rare, glassy, and powerful session, that Tuesday the 15th is hard to beat. This is a spot that can get crowded, and with waves like these, expect some company.
Stay safe out there.
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.
