The Lowdown
G'day, Rusty here. Look, Curl Curl Point is a consistent point break that loves a south-east swell, and it's exposed to whatever's coming. We've got a bit of a mixed bag over the next few weeks, but there are a couple of windows of clean, fun waves to get excited about.
Right now, Monday morning the 7th of September is looking solid. We've got a clean 5 ft south swell rolling in with a period of 8 seconds, and a light 3 mph NNW offshore breeze. The water temp is sitting at 65°, which is pretty much spot on for this time of year. The wave energy is moderate (305), and it's glassy out there. The morning is the go, though – by the afternoon, the wind swings east and the surf gets a bit chopped up.
Tuesday morning the 8th is a write-off for us. The swell bumps up to 8 ft from the south, but it's onshore and messy. Not for paddle surfing. The rest of the week and into the weekend is a bit of a washout with strong onshore winds and big, ugly swell. Wednesday the 9th has a 10 ft south swell and howling 28 mph southerlies – that's kite-surfing territory, not ours.
The first real standout comes on Wednesday morning the 16th of September. There's a 8 ft south swell with a 10-second period, and the wind is light and offshore from the north. The wave energy is strong (1068), and the conditions are clean. This is a big swell though, over 8 ft, so it's one for the experienced crew only. The point should handle it well, but it'll be a handful.
The following morning, Thursday the 17th, offers a nice follow-up with a clean 4 ft south swell and a light offshore breeze. It's a much more manageable size and still looks fun.
We also have a promising long-range call on Tuesday morning the 22nd of September. There's a 10 ft south swell on the charts, with a period of 8 seconds and light cross-shore winds. The wave energy is very strong (1319), and the conditions are reported as marginal. It's a bit far out to be certain, but it's got potential for a big session if the winds play ball.
Overall, it's a rocky start, but once the winds clean up, there are a couple of cracking days to aim for.

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.
