The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the menu for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, if you’re looking for a wave right now, you’re gonna be disappointed. We’ve got a long, flat spell ahead. The first real chance of anything decent doesn’t show up until Sunday the 20th of September. Up until then, it’s a whole lot of nothing – tiny, weak, and messy.
The only spot on the radar is Moody Point. It’s a reef break, so it needs a solid push to get going, and it’s usually pretty inconsistent. For the next week, the energy is just pathetic, with the combined swell energy barely hitting three figures. The water temp is 63°F which is pretty much spot on for this time of year, so no surprises there.
Right, let’s get to the only real window of interest. Things finally kick off on the morning of Sunday the 20th of September. A new swell shows up, pushing 5ft from the ENE with a period of 7 seconds. The wind will be a clean cross-offshore from the NNE, making for a clean surface. The energy jumps to 227, so there’s finally some push behind it. It’s not a classic, but it’s rideable.
But the standout, the one to really keep an eye on, is the afternoon of Sunday the 20th of September. That’s where it all comes together. We get a jump to 5ft from the ENE, and the wind goes glassy. Dead calm. It’s going to be clean as a whistle. The combined energy hits a whopping 555, so there’s proper power in the water. For a reef setup like Moody Point, this is your best bet. Keep in mind, the period is only 8 seconds, so it’s more of a windswell, but with that much energy and glassy conditions, it’ll be fun. For the experts out there, it’s manageable, but beginners might find the 5ft a bit much on the reef.
After that Sunday high, it drops back off pretty quick. The 24th of September shows a bigger pulse of 7ft from the ESE, but it’s mostly blown out by onshore winds until the afternoon when the wind switches offshore from the NW. That afternoon session could be very good for the advanced crew, with the energy at 764, but the morning will be a write-off. The 25th of September morning has a clean, glassy 4ft from the ESE, which is a nice follow-up session for those who can duck out for a Friday morning paddle.
Beyond that, it fades into small, weak leftovers. A few days with clean conditions but barely any wave height. Not worth getting excited about.
So there you have it. A long wait for a brief, punchy window. Make the most of that Sunday the 20th of September afternoon. That’s the one.
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.
