Updates in hr min s Forecast update imminent
Alright, Rusty here again. Let's break down the same forecast in feet and Fahrenheit.
The first few days are a total loss. Tuesday the 7th and Wednesday the 8th are blown out with big messy swell and cross-onshore winds making for horrible, choppy conditions. Not worth it.
Thursday the 9th is slightly smaller but still only marginal with a cross-onshore wind. You gotta wait it out. Friday the 10th morning is where it turns – the swell drops to a cleaner 5ft from the SE, with a light cross-offshore breeze making Curl Curl Point look good.
The standout is Saturday the 11th. The morning is prime: clean 4ft SE swell with light offshore NW wind. That afternoon is also magic with glassy, clean conditions and a 4ft ESE swell at a beautiful 12-second period. That’s proper groundswell energy for the point.
Sunday the 12th through Tuesday the 14th are tiny and quiet. Combined swell energy is weak, under 100. Not worth paddling.
Another great window opens Wednesday the 15th. The morning is clean with 3ft from the S and a cross-offshore breeze. The afternoon is glassy and clean with 4ft. That’s a long, fun day in the water.
Thursday the 16th brings a serious pulse of 8ft S swell at a long 13-second period (combined energy over 2100!). But the wind turns moderate cross-shore, making it lumpy. This is an expert-only day, strictly for those who can handle big, powerful groundswell and chop.
After that, Friday the 17th is marginal, and from the 18th onward it’s mostly tiny or weak. The 22nd has a small 5ft S pulse, but it’s still a bit questionable.
Water temp is about 64°F, which is normal for this time of year.
So, for the best days, hit Saturday the 11th for clean, offshore perfection. Wednesday the 15th is your glassy backup. And keep Thursday the 16th in mind if you’re a big-wave charger, but don't expect it to be clean.
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. 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.
