The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty. Let's talk about what's on the menu for the next couple of weeks.
Well, the outlook for Moody Point looks pretty grim. It's an exposed reef break that's inconsistent, and the swell direction is coming from the SSE and SE, which isn't its optimum. The water is a frigid 60°F and that's a whopping 5°F colder than usual for this time of year, so that's a big shock to the system.
We're looking at a long, dry spell. The first few days, from the 21st of July onward, are a total write-off. The swell is small and weak, with a combined energy of only 100 on the 21st, and winds are all over the place, mostly cross-onshore, making for poor, choppy conditions. The score is a zero across the board.
Towards the end of the week, there's a little flicker of hope. On the morning of Thursday the 23rd, we get a clean window with a gentle offshore wind from the NW, but the swell is tiny at 3ft from the SE, and the energy is still weak at 100. It's surfable, but very ordinary.
Wednesday afternoon on the 29th of July is the best we'll see. It's glassy, with a light WNW wind, but the swell is still only 2ft from the SE. The energy is a paltry 59, so it's just a tiny, clean wave.
The rest of the run into August is more of the same: small, weak swells, poor surf conditions, and a lot of cross-onshore or onshore winds. There's nothing here that's worth getting excited about. It's a long, blank run for a spot that's already inconsistent, so this is a normal quiet period.
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.
