Leggy Point Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, crew, Rusty here. Let’s get into it. The next couple of weeks have a bit of a slow start, but there are a few moments where it’s gonna turn on. We’ve got some solid swell windows, but you gotta pick your moments with the wind.

The first real window of surf kicks off on the morning of the 10th. It’s looking clean and lined up at Leggy Point. There’s a solid 8ft of SSE swell in the water, with a period of 10 seconds. The wind is offshore from the SSW, and it's a moderate breeze, but it’s doing its job. The water temp is 66°F, which is pretty normal for this time of year, so no surprises there. Wave energy is strong, sitting at 1148. This is the standout session of this first stretch. It's a bit more size, so this is for the experienced surfers.

Thursday afternoon holds up, still offshore and clean, with the swell easing slightly to 7ft, still from the SSE with a 10-second period. Still very good, but the morning was the pick.

Friday morning the 11th, we’ve got 6ft of SSE swell, period dropping just a bit to 10 seconds. The wind is a gentle offshore from the SW. It’s still clean and should offer some fun waves, though the energy has stepped down a notch to 640. This is a decent option.

But then the wind turns and we get into a bit of a lull. Friday afternoon through to Tuesday the 15th sees the swell fade and the winds go onshore or cross-shore. There’s surf, but it’s small, messy, and not really worth your time. Expect a few days of poor conditions and weaker energy.

Now, look ahead to the 16th. Wednesday morning brings a new pulse of swell, 6ft from the SSE with an 8-second period. It’s a bit short-period, so it might be a little junky, and the wind is cross-shore, so it’s not going to be the cleanest.

Wednesday afternoon continues with similar winds and a slightly smaller swell. We get another window on the 19th, Saturday morning. This is a big one. The swell jumps to 12ft from the south with a 12-second period. The energy reading is a massive 3473, so there is a lot of power in the water. But honestly, it's looking too big for Leggy Point. The wind is cross-shore, and while it's favorable for some, this is for experts only. It's a beast of a day.

The next day, the 20th, is the real standout for the long range. Sunday afternoon. The swell has backed off to a still-chunky 6ft from the SSE, but now the period is a proper 11 seconds. The wind is light offshore from the WNW, which will leave the place glassy and clean. The energy is a strong 823. This looks like the best combination of size, quality, and clean conditions. This is the one to put a mark on your calendar for.

After that, the surf starts to taper off. Monday the 21st and Tuesday the 22nd have some clean but smaller swell in the 4ft to 3ft range. It's surfable, but just average. Then we get another drop in energy into the 23rd and 24th, with weak, short-period swell and poor winds.

The last day, the 25th, Friday, kicks up a lot of size again, with an 12ft southerly swell, but it's coming with a strong onshore wind. That’s a messy, blown-out mess of a day. And that ends the run.

So, the highlights are the 10th morning for the first round of clean, fun waves, and the 20th afternoon for the best all-around conditions. That Sunday is the one to plan around. There are some big swells in between, but they're either messy or too big for this spot.

Signing off.

Rusty.
