Leggy Point Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, let's have a look at what Leggy Point's got cooking. It's a spot that doesn't always fire, so you gotta be patient. The pattern starts flat, builds into a nice little window, then fades into a long stretch of onshore junk.

The first few days are a bust. Tuesday and Wednesday the 29th and 30th of July are flat and weak, with energy barely registering. Not worth the wetsuit.

Then Thursday the 30th of July morning, we get a pulse. The swell is 5ft from the S, with a 9-second period. The energy is moderate (440), and the wind is a light cross-offshore. It's clean, punchy, and rideable. The afternoon drops a little to 5ft, but still clean.

The real standout is Friday morning, the 31st of July. The swell is 6ft from the S, with an 11-second period – that's groundswell with proper push (675). The wind is light offshore from the SW, so the waves will be clean and lined up. This is the pick of the run. The afternoon gets bigger at 7ft, but the wind goes onshore a bit, and the energy jumps to 1653 – that's a lot of power, and it'll be a challenge.

Saturday the 1st of August morning is a gem too. The swell is 5ft from the SSE, with a 10-second period. The wind is glassy – dead flat *glass* – from the NE. That's a huge plus, you'll have smooth, clean faces. The energy is moderate (453). This is a top call for a cruisy session.

From Sunday the 2nd of August, the swell fades. It's still 4ft, but the wind goes cross-shore and then onshore, chopping it up. The energy drops (322). Monday the 3rd of August is small and ordinary, with 3ft and 2ft swells and very low energy (142, 92). Not worth it.

After that, it's a long gap of poor conditions. Tuesday the 4th of August through to the end of the forecast on the 12th of August is mostly blown out or tiny. There's a brief flash on Thursday the 6th of August morning with a 5ft S swell and offshore wind, giving clean waves and moderate energy (505), but it's a short window in a long stretch of onshore junk. From the 7th of August onwards, the wind is hammering from the ENE, turning everything into a lumpy, cross-onshore mess. The swell is there, over 5ft, but the quality is gone. For a spot that's already inconsistent, this blank run is pretty normal.

So, to wrap it up: your best shots are Friday morning the 31st of July for the best combo of size, period, and offshore wind, and Saturday morning the 1st of August for glassy, clean conditions. The rest is a dice roll.
