Rusty here. Let's talk Left Point. The next couple of weeks have some good moments and some real stinkers.
Right now, Sunday the 5th is a mess. Strong cross-shore winds at 15-22 mph with a big, chunky 10ft SW swell. It's not surfable. Monday the 6th afternoon is when it turns. We get glassy offshore winds from the SW at 3 mph, and a clean 4ft SW swell with a 14-second period. Wave energy is moderate (726). This is a great, sneaky session.
Tuesday the 7th is another good day. The morning has light offshore winds from the NNE at 6 mph with a 3ft SW swell (17-second period). It's small but clean. The afternoon brings a cross-offshore breeze, a bit more size at 5ft, and clean conditions (1146 wave energy).
Wednesday the 8th afternoon is the big one for experts. The swell hits 7ft from the SW with an 18-second period. Winds are light cross-offshore from the SSE at 3 mph, making for clean waves. Wave energy is strong at 2951. This is quality but big - not for beginners.
Thursday the 9th afternoon offers another glassy session with 4ft SW swell and a 15-second period. Clean and fun.
The second week gets rough. Big swells and strong winds dominate. Sunday the 12th afternoon has a 10ft SW swell with offshore winds, but it's marginal. Monday the 13th afternoon sees a massive 12ft SW swell with a 19-second period and a wave energy reading of 11403 - that's very strong. The winds are cross-shore, and it's too big for this break. Experts only.
Wednesday the 15th morning is a clean option with a moderate offshore breeze at 16 mph and a 10ft SW swell (5919 wave energy). Still only for the experienced.
Later on the 19th, Sunday afternoon brings a 8ft SW swell with a 16-second period and clean cross-offshore winds (5352 wave energy).
Best bets are Monday 6th afternoon, Tuesday 7th, and Wednesday 8th afternoon. That 8th is the standout for the skilled crew. The long-range on the 15th is promising but heavy.
Rusty out.

Information about the Left Point Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Left Point provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Left Point can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Left 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 (Left 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 Left 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.
Left Point is 33 km (20 miles) from Mornington. If you plan a holiday in Phillip Island, look for hotels and other accommodation in Mornington. Mornington has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
