The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here again. Let’s break down the same stretch in feet and miles per hour, because that’s how we do it.
The next few days are a total dud. From Wednesday the 2nd right through to Tuesday the 9th, we’re looking at flat to tiny surf with mostly onshore or cross-shore winds. There’s a stretch of about five days with combined swell energy under 100 (weak wave energy), and the odd clean but knee-high wave. Just leave the board in the car.
The real deal hits on Thursday the 10th. The swell pumps up to 6ft to 6ft from the ENE, with a short period of 6 to 7 seconds. The combined energy reads 231 (moderate wave energy) in the morning and 266 (moderate wave energy) in the afternoon. What makes it work is the offshore wind – WNW at 15 mph in the morning, easing to 9 mph in the afternoon. Clean conditions all day. The water is 66°, which is a touch warmer than usual, so a spring suit is fine.
Moody Point is the spot. It’s a reef break for advanced surfers only, and it doesn’t break often, so when it does, it’ll be crowded. The swell direction is a bit off the preferred SE, but the offshore wind will sort it out. This is the only real window in the whole 16-day forecast.
After that, it fades fast. Friday the 11th drops to 3ft and glassy in the morning, but it’s weak. The rest of the run into the second week is tiny – ankle-biters with long-period groundswell (14–15 seconds) that’s too small to do anything. The combined energy drops to single digits (weak wave energy).
So, mark your calendar for Thursday the 10th. Moody Point, offshore wind, 5–6ft, clean. It’s for experts, and it’s the only standout in the whole 16 days.
Rusty.

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