Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on offer for the next couple of weeks.

Well, I gotta be straight with you – it's a tough stretch ahead. The good news is there's no huge swell to cause trouble, but the bad news is there's barely any surf at all. For the first ten days, from Friday the 10th of July right through to the 19th, the waves are tiny and the energy is weak. The combined swell energy at Moody Point (a reef break) barely gets into double figures, with values like 72 and 59, just a whisper of energy. It's a period of mostly small, weak windswell, and the wind is all over the shop – cross-onshore, cross-shore, never really clean. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing unusual there.

We finally see a bit of a pulse on Tuesday the 21st of July in the afternoon. The swell bumps up to 5 ft from the SSE, with a combined energy of 143 (moderate energy). It's still a short-period swell at 6 seconds, so it'll be a bit lumpy, and the wind is light cross-onshore, so it'll be a little bumpy but not a total write-off. This is about as good as it gets, but it's still only a "poor surf conditions" rating. The swell direction (SSE) is close to the optimum SE direction for Moody Point, which is a small positive.

Then on Wednesday the 22nd of July, we get a morning with 4 ft at 5 seconds from the SSE and a combined energy of 147 (again moderate). The wind is onshore and light, so it won't be glassy. This will be a bit of a messy, dumpy wave. The afternoon is similar. This is still pretty weak for a reef break.

The best bet, if you're desperate for a paddle, is the late afternoon of Thursday the 16th of July. It's tiny, only 2 ft from the south, but the wind goes glassy. That's a major positive. For a brief window, the ocean will be like a mirror. The swell is a 4-second period, so it's just wind chop, but if you want to sit on a board and feel the ocean, that's your moment. It'll be a bit of a fun, tiny wave for a log.

Honestly, nothing here jumps out as a standout. The surf is small, weak, and the windows of clean conditions are fleeting. The longer-period swell that shows up on the 17th (14 seconds from the SE, 0.3 ft) is a frustrating tease – it's a groundswell that would be perfect for a reef, but it's barely a ripple. For a shallow reef break like Moody Point, an inconsistent break that often has crowds, this is a very quiet period. If you're a kite surfer, the afternoons of the 21st and 22nd with that 5 ft and 4 ft swell and moderate cross-onshore wind might look more interesting than a paddle.

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.
