The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s not beat around the bush – we’ve got a grim 16-day window ahead. The only break on the radar is Moody Point, and honestly, it’s a tough watch. The whole stretch is a write-off. There are no good surf options at all. This is one of those rare blank runs for the area, so don’t be surprised if the forecasts shift – it’s too quiet to stay this way forever.
For the first few days, a tiny, weak swell doesn’t even get started. On Monday the 13th, we’re looking at a measly 4ft SSE swell, but with a cross-on shore breeze and the combined energy sitting at a weak 77, it’s all bump and no power. The water is 67°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s about the only positive. Tuesday the 14th through Saturday the 18th, the swell drops to a pathetic 0.3ft to 2ft – just knee-high dribble. The energy readings are stuck in the low teens to twenties (weak). Even when the wind goes clean offshore or cross-off like on Wednesday the 15th morning, there’s nothing to ride.
Heading into the next week, things don’t change. From Sunday the 19th through to Tuesday the 28th, it’s still the same story: tiny 1ft to 3ft swells from the SSE or SE, with that cross-on wind chopping the surface up. The combined energy never even breaks triple digits, staying in the 20s to 80s (weak). The best we get is a 3ft SE swell on Monday the 27th afternoon, but it’s with a light cross-on breeze and a period of just 7 seconds – weak and messy.
For kite surfers, the persistent cross-on wind and tiny, poor-quality surf might make this more interesting for a kite than a paddle. The moody conditions are just not for us. There’s no standout day, no clean swell, nothing to get excited about. Keep the board in the car and watch the forecast. This one’s a skip.
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.
