The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the menu for Moody Point over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it's a bit of a slow start. We're looking at a whole lot of nothing for the first week or so. The water is sitting at 62°, which is a bit colder than you'd expect for this time of year, so don't forget the booties if you're keen.
The first chance of anything worthwhile is on Friday, July 31st. The morning brings a tiny 2-foot SSE swell at a long 10 seconds, with a cross-offshore breeze. It's not big, but it'll be clean. By the afternoon, the wind drops to glassy, which is a real treat. The wave energy is weak at best (79), so it's a longboard or a funboard kind of day. Not a standout, but a nice little session if you're desperate.
We skip through the next week with nothing really happening. The swell is small, the wind is mostly onshore or cross-shore, and the scores are all zero. It's a bit of a drought.
Now, if you're patient, there's a glimmer on Friday, August 7th. The afternoon shows a 5-foot SSE swell rolling in, and the wind goes glassy. The wave energy jumps right up to 251 (moderate), which is a big step up. The forecast is calling for "good surf conditions" – that's got my attention. It's still a week and a half away, so keep your fingers crossed.
But the real standout, the one you want to circle on your calendar, is Wednesday, August 12th. The morning session is looking like the pick of the entire forecast. We've got a solid 4-foot swell from the SE, with a very long period of 12 seconds (groundswell). The wind is glassy, dead calm. The combined energy is a whopping 502 (strong), which is a massive number for this spot. Conditions are set to be "very good". This is the one. Moody Point is a reef break, so that long period groundswell will wrap in beautifully. It's an advanced wave, so not for the groms, but for the crew who know what they're doing, this is going to be special. The afternoon stays good with a 5-foot swell, but the wind shifts onshore, so the morning is your window.
Verdict: You've got a long wait, but the prize at the end is worth it. Wednesday, August 12th morning is the undisputed winner. The glassy conditions and strong groundswell will make for an epic session at Moody Point. Get your board ready.

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.
