The Lowdown
Right, let’s have a look at the outlook. Honestly, the next 16 days are a bit of a struggle. We’re looking at long gaps with barely a ripple. For the most part, the swell is tiny and the conditions are ordinary.
The only spot in the region is Moody Point, a reef break that needs a good SE swell to work its magic. It’s an exposed, advanced wave that can be inconsistent, and crowds are often a thing here.
From now, right through until Saturday the 20th of September, it’s mostly tiny waves with poor conditions. The energy is low – mostly in the 10 to 90 range – and the winds are all over the shop. There’s nothing worth paddling out for.
Finally, on Sunday the 20th of September, there’s a glimmer. The morning is glassy with a 2ft, short-period swell (5 seconds) from the S, and the combined energy is a moderate 52. Not great shape, but the glassy wind makes it look clean. Afternoon ramps up a touch – a 4ft swell from the S, with a period of 6 seconds, and the energy hitting a moderate 126, combined with a solid offshore breeze from the NW. This is the standout. It’ll be clean, but with that short period and the reef, don’t expect long walls.
The rest of the window into the 22nd is back to poor surf.
Water temperature is about average for the time of year here. No major anomaly to report.
Signing off, this one’s for the patient locals. Keep an eye on the afternoon of the 20th.

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.
