The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking at Moody Point. Honestly, I’ve got to be straight with you – the next couple of weeks are looking pretty quiet for this spot. It’s a real dry spell, so don’t expect to be rushing down with your board every day.
We’re kicking off with a long stretch of nothing. From Wednesday the 15th of July right through until the 20th, it’s pretty much a write-off. The swell is tiny, mostly around 0.3ft to 0.7ft, and the energy is weak (27 or less). The wind is offshore or clean at times, but with no height to speak of, it’s just not worth paddling out for.
We finally get a bit of a pulse around Tuesday the 21st of July. The swell picks up a little, with waves around 4ft to 4ft coming from the S. The energy is moderate (157 in the morning), and the wind goes light offshore or cross-offshore, so the surface cleans up. Still, these are very ordinary conditions – a 1 out of 10 kinda day. It’s surfable if you’re desperate, but nothing to write home about. The period is a short 5 to 6 seconds, so the waves will be a bit fat and unorganised.
The rest of the week looks poor again. We get a bit of a spike on Sunday the 25th of July, with the swell hanging around 3ft from the SE. The afternoon goes glassy – dead calm wind – and the waves are surfable but still ordinary. A bit of a tease, really. The energy is weak (75).
Then, after another quiet spell, we get a standout on Wednesday the 29th of July. This is the one to keep an eye on. The morning session is looking the best of the whole 16 days. The swell is around 3ft from the SSE, and the energy jumps up to a solid 214 – that’s a moderate, punchy pulse. The wind is glassy, so the surface will be like a mirror. This is clean, conditions are good, and it’s the best shot we’ve got. Keep in mind, Moody Point is a reef break that’s inconsistent, so you need a bit of patience and it’s only for advanced surfers. The water temp is about average for the time of year, so nothing weird there.
Overall, it’s a lean two weeks. The only real highlight is that Wednesday the 29th of July morning. Otherwise, it’s a whole lot of waiting.
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.
