Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it. We’ve got one spot on the radar for this entire 16-day stretch, and I’ll be honest with you—it’s a tough watch. The only break we’ve got to work with is Moody Point, an advanced reef setup that’s inconsistent and exposed to the SE. It’s a tricky one that needs the right conditions to line up, and for most of this window, they just don’t.

Looking at the whole picture, we’re staring down a long, dry spell. From now through to the 18th of July, the surf is mostly junk. You’ll see small, weak swell with poor, cross-onshore winds keeping things choppy and messy. The combined energy readings are low, barely cracking three digits, and often sitting in the 20s or 30s – that’s weak energy, no punch. There’s a bit of a bump mid-week, but the wind is ruining it. Moody Point needs clean conditions, and it’s just not getting them.

The first real flicker of something decent shows up on the morning of Friday, the 17th of July. We’ve got a glassy, dead calm start with the wind swinging ESE at 0 mph. That’s a major positive for this spot. The swell is tiny though, only 1 ft from the SE with a short period of 7 seconds, and the combined energy is just 23 – weak. It’s clean, but it’s barely a ripple. You’d be on a longboard, maybe a log, and just enjoying the peace.

Then, the standout. It’s not a classic, but it’s the best we get. On the morning of Sunday, the 19th of July, we hit the only surfable rating in the whole forecast. The wind goes glassy again, light from the SSE at 5 mph, and the swell bumps up to 3 ft from the SSE with a period of 7 seconds. The combined energy reads 84 – still weak, but it’s the most we get. The water temp is about average for the time of year, no big anomaly. This is the one morning you’d want to paddle out at Moody Point. It’s not big, it’s not powerful, but it’s clean and rideable. The crowds here are often, so you might have a few others out. After that, it’s back to the small, choppy stuff for the rest of the window.

Bottom line: if you’re serious about surfing, don’t get your hopes up. The 19th of July morning is your only real chance, and even then, keep expectations low. The rest of the 16 days is a write-off for this spot.

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.

Moody Point is 24 km (15 miles) from Sanford. If you plan a vacation in Maine, look for hotels and other accommodation in Sanford. Sanford has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
