The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Flat spell for Moody Point, mate. The whole sixteen days are mostly a dud except for one late window worth chasing.
From Friday the 11th through late September, it’s tiny dribble — waves from 0.7ft to 3ft, combined swell energy stuck in the low double digits (10 to 59). Wind’s usually onshore or cross-onshore, chopped up. Water temp’s about 64°, a degree warmer than usual for the time of year — no big deal.
There’s a weak moment Monday the 14th: clean 2ft to 3ft SE swell with offshore NW breeze. Surfable but nothing special.
The real standout lands Thursday the 24th afternoon. Clean 6ft east swell with 8-second period and moderate energy (369). Light W cross-off wind keeps it smooth. Moody Point (Moody-Point) will have decent reef walls. At 6ft, it’s too big for beginners — good for experienced surfers. Expect a crowd, it’s often busy here.
The morning before that has a smaller 3ft SE swell with clean wind, but not the same quality. Friday the 25th morning sees the biggest raw size at 7ft east, but it’s messy with cross-shore wind and strong energy (970) — experts only, and it’s marginal.
After that, it’s back to tiny weak surf. So, mark Thursday the 24th afternoon as your shot: chest-to-head-high east swell, clean at Moody Point. That’s the only real session in this 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.
