The Lowdown
Alright, let’s break this down for Curl Curl Point over the next couple of weeks.
It starts off a bit flat and messy, but there are a few windows where it all comes together. The water temp is around 63°F, which is a bit below average for this time of year – you’ll feel it.
Sunday, August 23rd – This is your first real good session. Sunday morning has a S swell running about 5 ft with a 9-second period. The wind is glassy – light NE at 3 mph. That’ll be clean and smooth. The combined energy is moderate at 370. Crowds are often, so expect company, but it’s the best early window.
Monday, August 24th – Monday morning is another clean one. N wind at 6 mph, cross-off, with a 3 ft S swell and a 10-second period. Energy is 203. Not huge, but a nice little session.
Friday, August 28th – Friday morning has a 3 ft S swell, 9-second period, with a light cross-off WSW wind at 3 mph. Clean and small. Energy is 303.
Saturday, September 5th – This is the big one. Saturday morning has a super long-period S swell – 21 seconds – but only 2 ft in height. The energy is strong at 536. Wind is light cross-off from the N at 6 mph, so it’ll be glassy. Then Saturday afternoon is even better: glassy conditions with a SW wind at 3 mph, 2 ft from the S, and energy hitting 593. This is the best surf of the whole outlook. Clean, powerful, and perfect for the point.
Sunday, September 6th – Sunday morning turns ugly. A 6 ft S swell with 8-second period and cross-on wind from the SSE at 9 mph. That’ll be chopped up.
So, the standout is Saturday, September 5th. Mark it. Sunday the 23rd is a good warm-up. The rest is small and clean but nothing to write home about. Get out there early, the afternoons tend to go to crap.

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. If you surf the same spot (Curl Curl 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 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. 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.
