The Lowdown
Rusty here, checkin' the charts for Moody Point over the next couple of weeks. Gotta be straight with you, it's a grim picture.
Right off the bat, from Sunday the 30th of August all the way through to the end of the forecast, we're lookin' at a whole lot of nothin' special. This stretch of small, weak swell is pretty persistent, with a few days where the energy barely tickles the 30 mark. We're talkin' days on end of tiny waves, mostly under 3 feet, with a whole lot of onshore or cross-off wind that's just not doin' us any favors.
The water's a touch warmer than usual for the time of year, sittin' at 67°, which is a bit of a bonus if you're just havin' a splash, but it ain't gonna make the surf any better.
Honestly, there's no standout session here. The whole period is a flat, blown-out mess for paddle surfing. If you were desperate, the best you could hope for is the Thursday afternoon of the 3rd of September, where a 5ft swell from the southeast shows up with clean, cross-off wind from the west. That's still only a 6-second period though, so it's a lumpy, weak little thing, and the combined swell energy is only 188 – barely moderate. It's surfable, but it's ordinary. Same goes for Friday the 4th of September morning – a clean little 3ft ESE swell with a light offshore from the northwest. Tiny and weak, but at least you wouldn't be gettin' skunked. For the rest of it, you're lookin' at knee-high slop or choppy, onshore junk. The whole second week is just more of the same: tiny, weak, and not worth paddlin' out for. This is a dry spell, plain and simple. The setup here, with these small, weak swells and frequent onshore winds, looks way more interesting for kite surfing than for a surfboard right now.
Stay patient, folks. Forecasts can change, but right now it's a tough run.
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.
