Table - best surf conditions forecast for Lagundri - The Point over the next 16 days.
Alright mates, Rusty here again, but in feet and knots for you. Let’s break down Lagundri - The Point.
First few days, don’t get your hopes up. Saturday the 11th and Sunday the 12th are a write-off. Stormy skies, cross-onshore breezes, and the swell’s only about 3 to 5ft but it’s short-period junk. Combined wave energy is moderate, three-digit numbers, but nothing’s clean. Stay on the beach.
Monday the 13th and Tuesday the 14th are still average. Conditions are marginal, the wind is flukey. Tuesday afternoon shows a 4ft SW swell with a 17-second period (1310 energy), but cross-on wind spoils it. Not worth the paddle.
Now listen up. Wednesday the 15th morning is the first real standout. Glassy conditions, a clean 5ft SSW swell with a 16-second period, and moderate energy (1259). This is for the experienced crew. The water temperature is about 86°, close to normal for this time of year. The swell direction is just right for the Point. Crowds are possible, so be ready.
Thursday the 16th morning stays glassy before the wind turns. After that, Friday through the middle of the month is quieter with onshore winds and smaller 3 to 4ft swell. Not much happening.
Then the real banger. Sunday the 19th morning has tiny 2ft glassy wave but with an incredibly long 22-second period. That’s clean but small. The winner is Monday the 20th: 6ft of SSW swell, glassy calm, and strong wave energy (1999). That’s expert-only at that size. Perfect direction for the reef, no wind—it’ll be firing. Tuesday the 21st morning stays excellent with 5ft and glassy conditions.
Second week looks mixed. Wednesday the 22nd gets a bit bumpy, but by Thursday the 23rd afternoon we’re back to glassy 4ft S swell. Friday the 24th brings a small but sweet 3ft SW groundswell with a 17-second period. The long-range standout is Saturday the 25th morning: glassy 4ft SW swell with a 16-second period and solid energy (1149). A bit less certain, but the signs are good. Sunday the 26th keeps it glassy through the afternoon.
Best bets: Wednesday the 15th morning and Monday the 20th. Don’t sleep on them.
Rusty.

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