The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for the next couple of weeks.

First up, the water temp is sitting at 65°F right now, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. Not a big deal, but you might not need the thickest rubber.

Straight off the bat, I gotta be honest with you – it's slim pickings. The forecast shows a long stretch of poor surf conditions with barely any energy. We're talking about a gap of several days where there's nothing worth paddling out for. The first real mention of anything surfable is a blip on Sunday morning, the 6th of September, at Moody Point. That's a reef setup, so it's for advanced crew only. We're looking at a weak 3ft swell from the East, with a short period of 7 seconds, so the energy is pretty low at 137 (moderate). The wind is a light cross-offshore from the North, which should keep it reasonably clean. It's surfable, but it's ordinary. The problem is, this spot is inconsistent and often crowded, so don't expect much.

The rest of the first week and into the second is a write-off. Tiny swell, poor winds, and the wave energy drops right off into double digits. For example, on Monday the 7th you've got 1ft and a long period of 10 seconds from the East, but it's so small it's not doing anything. The combined energy is a weak 36. You'd be better off staying home.

There's another tiny flicker of life on the 14th of September, Monday morning. A 2ft from the SSE with a period of 8 seconds, and the wind is offshore from the NW. The energy is only 50 (weak), and it's still described as "surfable but very ordinary." Again, not a standout.

Then on the 19th of September, Saturday afternoon, we get some glassy conditions with a 3ft swell from the ENE, but the period is a ridiculously short 5 seconds, so the energy is a weak 56. It's surfable, but the swell is so weak and short-period it's barely a ripple.

Honestly, looking at the whole 16 days, there is no real standout. Nothing is hitting the mark for a decent session. The best of a bad bunch is probably that Sunday morning, the 6th, if you're desperate and can handle a reef. For the rest of it, the setup is so weak and often windy that it might actually be more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing, especially at a beach setup, but since it's a reef, it's just flat.

So, keep your board in the car for a while, lads. It tends not to stay this poor for long, but this is a pretty blank run for the area.

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.
