The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Been staring at the charts for Curl Curl Point and, honestly, it’s a bit of a mixed bag for the next couple of weeks. We’ve got some swell, sure, but the wind is going to be a real pain in the arse for most of it. There’s a window of opportunity, but you’ll need to pick your moments.
The water is sitting at about 64° at the start, which is pretty much par for the course this time of year, so no surprises there.
We’re kicking off on Wednesday the 9th, but don’t bother getting your hopes up. The southerly wind is howling at 25 mph in the arvo, and that 10 ft swell is just a mess. It’s a no-go.
Thursday the 10th is looking a bit better on paper, with a 8 ft swell in the morning, but the wind is still cross-shore and the conditions are just marginal. Not worth the drive for a paddling session, to be honest.
Now, hold onto your boards, because the real standout is Saturday morning, the 12th. We’ve got a solid 4 ft groundswell rolling in from the south, with a nice long 12-second period. That’s some proper energy (combined energy of 608 – moderate). But the best part? The wind is glassy, mate. Dead flat. That’s as clean as it gets for a point break. The swell direction is from the south, which is a bit off the optimum for the Point, but with the wind like that, it’ll be a fun, clean wave. It’s not huge, so it’s perfect for most of us, not just the experts.
Sunday morning the 13th could be a sneaky one too. Only 3 ft of swell, but the wind is a light cross-offshore from the north-northeast, so it’ll be clean. The energy is a bit weaker (214), but for a small day, you could have a bunch of fun without the crowds – though this spot can get busy, so get there early.
After that, it’s a bit of a dry spell. The swell drops off and the wind goes all over the shop. From Tuesday the 15th through to the 22nd, it’s mostly small, onshore, and messy. Not worth paddling out for.
There’s a little flicker of hope on Thursday morning the 17th with a 4 ft south swell and a clean, cross-offshore westerly, but the energy is only moderate (267) and the wind is likely to turn on you in the arvo.
So, look, the best call is clear: Saturday morning, the 12th of September. That glassy 4 ft south swell is your best bet. Get on it. Sunday morning is a solid backup if you’re desperate for a paddle.
Rusty.

Information about the Curl Curl Point Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Curl Curl Point provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Curl Curl Point can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Curl Curl 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.

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 Curl Curl 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.
