The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you. For the next sixteen days, we’re looking at a real flat spell at Moody Point. This is a tough stretch, and I’m not going to sugarcoat it.
Right now, the swell is tiny and the wind is all wrong. We’ve got a bit of energy from the SSE but it’s weak, with a combined energy of just 13. The water temp is sitting at 61°, which is a bit colder than normal for this time of year, so you’ll want a good wetsuit. The first few days are a write-off—tiny, choppy, and cross-on. It’s not worth paddling out.
Then on Thursday the 23rd, we get a little glimmer. The morning session shows a clean 4 ft SE swell with a period of 9 seconds and a light offshore breeze from the NNW. The combined energy is 178, so there’s some moderate push there. The conditions are described as surfable, but very ordinary. It’s a far cry from good, but it’s the only window that’s even close to being worth a look. The break is a reef, so it handles the swell better than a beach would, but it’s inconsistent and often crowded, so don’t expect to have it to yourself.
The real standout, if you can call it that, is Tuesday the 28th. We’ve got a 5 ft SE swell with a 7-second period, but the wind is glassy, dead calm. The combined energy is 189, which is moderate. The morning and afternoon both look completely glassy. The wave comment says “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions,” but for this spot, that’s the best we’ll see. The swell is small, but with that glassy surface, it’ll be the cleanest it gets.
After that, it’s back to tiny, weak, and onshore. From the 29th of July right through to the 4th of August, we’re looking at waves under 3 ft, with combined energy dropping below 100. The winds are mostly onshore or cross-on, and the swell is too weak to do anything with. There’s a gap of about a week where there’s nothing worth mentioning.
If you’re desperate, Thursday morning the 23rd is your only half-decent option in the first week. For the second week, Tuesday the 28th is the best bet, but it’s still small. Long-range, it’s promising but less certain—forecasts can change, and it tends not to stay this poor for long. But right now, the board’s staying in the car.
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.
