The Lowdown

Alright mates, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s on offer at Lagundri - The Point. We’ve got a solid block of surf coming, starting with some good clean waves this weekend, then a real stand-out stretch from Monday the 20th right through to the end of the month and into August. There’s a couple of days mid-week around the 23rd and 24th where the wind turns onshore and kills it, but otherwise it’s a solid run. Don’t worry about that little gap, the good stuff comes back hard.

Let’s kick off on Saturday the 18th. The morning shows a 3.9ft SW swell with a long 14-second period, light cross-off breeze. Clean, punchy waves. Combined swell energy is at 650, which is solid moderate power. Afternoon holds up with offshore wind too. Very good.

Sunday the 19th: a bit smaller at 3.6ft from the SW, 13-second period. Morning is glassy – total slick surface. Energy drops to 460 (weak), but the quality is there. Afternoon gets a cross-shore, so morning is the go.

Now, here’s the real standout. Monday the 20th. The swell jumps to 5.2ft from the SSW, 17-second period – that’s proper groundswell. The combined energy hits 1580 (strong). The morning is completely glassy. For experienced surfers, this is dreamy. The afternoon stays big at 5.6ft but picks up a cross-shore, so the morning session is your clear winner.

Tuesday the 21st keeps the quality high at 5.2ft from the SSW, 14-second period, with a cross-off breeze. Strong energy at 1038. Excellent conditions in the morning. Afternoon drops to 4.9ft but energy is still pumping.

Wednesday the 22nd is a bit smaller – 3.6ft, 13-second period. Morning glassy, energy at 497 (weak). Afternoon turns onshore, so get it early.

Then there’s a rough patch from Thursday the 23rd to Friday the 24th. Onshore winds, smaller swell from the S and SSE, periods dropping to 10-12 seconds. Heights around 3.6ft to 4.6ft but messy. Energy weak. Not worth the effort for a couple of days.

Saturday the 25th bounces back. Morning glassy with a 3.6ft S swell, 10-second period, energy 542 (moderate). Good conditions. Afternoon drops to 2.6ft but with a 15-second groundswell – still fun.

Sunday the 26th starts glassy with a 3.0ft SW swell, 14-second period. Clean, energy 431 (weak). Afternoon is cross-off but still good.

Monday the 27th is a curveball. The size drops to 2.0ft in the morning, but the period jumps to a massive 21 seconds – that’s a very long period groundswell. Energy is 562 (moderate). Glassy conditions. The waves will be lined up perfectly on the reef. Afternoon is similar at 2.6ft with 20-second period, still glassy.

Tuesday the 28th is another standout. A 4.6ft SSW groundswell with an 18-second period and zero wind – completely calm and glassy. Combined energy is 1419 (strong). Excellent for experienced surfers. Afternoon gets a cross-shore so morning is the key.

Wednesday the 29th holds at 4.6ft from the SSW, 15-second period, glassy morning. Energy 989 (moderate). Very good. Afternoon glassy too at 4.3ft.

Thursday the 30th: 2.6ft SW swell, 20-second period, glassy morning. Energy 983 (moderate). The afternoon is the gem: 3.3ft, 20-second period, glassy, with energy shooting to 1046 (strong). Excellent conditions.

Friday the 31st – this is the main event for the end of the run. The swell pumps to 6.6ft from the SW, 17-second period. Offshore wind in the morning. Energy is a massive 2600 (very strong). This is only for experienced surfers. Afternoon keeps the 6.6ft with cross-off wind.

Saturday the 1st of August: another 6.2ft SW groundswell, 16-second period, and totally calm, glassy conditions. Energy at 1918 (strong). Afternoon is similar at 5.9ft and still glassy. Sunday the 2nd holds at 5.9ft, 17-second period, glassy in the morning. This run just keeps giving.

It’s a reef break and it

A general guide to surfing at Lagundri - The Point can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

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.
