The Lowdown
Alright, I'll be straight with you – there's nothing worth paddling out for at Moody Point over the next 16 days. From July 23rd through August 7th, it's a total washout. The water temperature on the 23rd is 59°F, which is a whopping 5°F colder than normal – that's a real shock to the system. The break is a reef, for advanced surfers only, and it's inconsistent – it rarely breaks properly. And when it does, it's often crowded. But none of that matters because the waves are tiny and messy.
The only moment that might catch your eye is Tuesday afternoon, July 28th, when the swell hits 5ft from the SE, but with a period of just 6 seconds – that's pure windswell. The combined energy is 231 (moderate) but the wind is onshore and the forecast calls it "marginal". The next day, Wednesday July 29th, sees 6ft from the ESE with a period of 8 seconds and cross-shore wind, energy 345, but still rated as poor. Then on Thursday July 30th morning, there's a glassy spell with 2ft from the E, period 7s, energy 65 – surfable but very ordinary. Same for Friday July 31st morning with 2ft from the SSE, period 9s, glassy. But these are weak, tiny waves, and the rest of the time it's onshore chop or tiny junk.
This spot needs a clean SE groundswell to really work, but we're getting short-period slop and lousy wind. Even the best glassy moments are too small to bother with. If you're into kiteboarding, some of those choppy, onshore days might be fun, but for a surfboard? Forget it. This is a rough stretch – but forecasts can change, so don't give up hope entirely. For now, I'd stay home.

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.
