The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let's take a good, hard look at what's on the table for the next couple of weeks.

Honestly, for Moody Point, it's a pretty grim stretch. We're looking at a long, flat spell with mostly weak, short-period windswell and a lot of onshore breeze. The energy is just not there for any proper paddle surfing. The combined swell energy never gets into the decent range, often sitting below 100, which is just weak. The best we can hope for are a few fleeting moments where the wind drops off and the waves get a bit cleaner, but even then, the size is tiny.

Right now, it's all about the S/SSE swell, which is exactly the wrong direction for this reef. The optimum swell is from the SE, and we just don't see that being the dominant source. The water temp is about average for the time of year, so nothing unusual there.

The first real glimmer, and I mean a tiny one, shows up on Thursday morning, the 23rd of July. The wind drops to glassy from the NNW, and we get a 3 ft SE swell with an 8-second period. The combined energy is 98, which is still weak. It's surfable, and it'll be clean, but it's not going to get the heart pounding. It's really just a chance to get a few ankle-snappers on a longboard.

Then there's a huge gap. Nothing worth mentioning for days. The next date that has a pulse is Tuesday afternoon, the 28th of July. The wind goes glassy from the SSW, and the swell is 3.6 ft from the SE with a 6-second period. The combined energy bumps up to 143, which is moderate. Again, it's clean, but the period is short, so the waves will be a bit fat and mushy. It's a "surfable but very ordinary" situation.

After that, we get a couple of days on the 31st of July with a clean offshore wind from the WNW, but the swell is tiny – 2.3 ft to 3 ft from the SSE. The energy is only 53 to 70. It's clean, but there's just not enough push to make it any fun.

For the first week of August, it's back to tiny, onshore slop. The energy readings are all in the teens, twenties, and thirties – just pathetic. The waves are too small and weak for any kind of decent surf.

Honestly, for a surfer, this is a write-off. The setup is a reef, and with small, weak, onshore swell, it's not even interesting. If you had a kite, you might get a few runs in on the windier days, but for a paddle board, you're better off finding a river or a lake. The forecasts can change, but right now, it's looking like a long, flat spell.

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.
