The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. We’ve got a real mixed bag coming up for Moody Point over the next couple of weeks. Let’s be straight with you – the first week is a write-off. We’re looking at a long, quiet stretch with barely a ripple worth mentioning. The water is hanging around 65°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s about the only comfort.

From Monday the 7th right through to the morning of Monday the 14th, it’s a flat spell. Tiny swell, mostly under 3 ft, and the few pulses that do show up are weak and short-period. The wind is all over the place – onshore, cross-off, a bit of glass now and then – but it doesn’t matter because there’s no wave energy to work with. The combined energy barely cracks 100 (104) on the morning of the 10th, but even then, the swell is a messy 4 ft from the SSE with a short 6-second period. It’s just not doing anything. You’d be better off checking the wind forecast for a kite session than paddling out.

Then, finally, things start to look interesting. On the afternoon of Monday the 14th, we get a proper pulse. The swell jumps to 8 ft from the south, with a combined energy of 818. That’s a solid, moderate energy, and the conditions are glassy with barely any wind. The period is short at 7 seconds, so it’ll be a bit lumpy, but for a reef break like Moody Point, that’s a decent push. This is the standout of the entire forecast. The swell is over 5 ft, so it’s not for beginners, and at 8 ft, it’s getting into expert territory, especially on a reef. The wind is glassy, so the faces will be clean. The optimum swell direction is SE, and this is coming from the S, so it’s a little off the ideal, but the energy is there. The crowd situation is “often”, so expect company.

After that peak, it’s back to the quiet life. The rest of the week from the 15th onward sees the swell drop right back down. We get a few mornings with clean, offshore winds (like the 15th afternoon and 19th morning), but the swell is tiny – 1 ft to 2 ft – with weak energy. It’s a shame, because the wind is right for it, but there’s just no oomph. The last few days of the forecast, from the 20th to the 22nd, are poor again with onshore wind and small, messy SSE swell.

So, the long and short of it: the first 7 days are a total write-off. The best and only real chance is the afternoon of Monday the 14th. That’s your window. After that, it’s back to waiting. Forecasts can change, but right now, that’s the one to pencil in.

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.
