Table - best surf conditions forecast for Moody Point over the next 16 days.
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s look at what we’ve got on the cards for Moody Point.
Honestly, the next couple of weeks are a tough watch. The whole stretch is dominated by tiny, weak swell and mostly poor conditions. There are no real standouts to get excited about, but a couple of windows do open up where you could get a surf – but they aren’t anything to write home about.
Right now, and for the first week, it’s slim pickings. The swell is consistently small, barely scraping 1ft to 3ft. The combined energy is weak, usually sitting below 100 (25-52), so there’s just no power in the water. Winds are mostly cross-on or messy, so it’s choppy and ordinary. There’s a stretch from July 12th to the 19th where it’s honestly not worth paddling out. The water temp is 66°F, a touch warmer than normal for the time of year (a 2°F anomaly), but that doesn’t help the waves.
We finally see a slight pulse from July 20th. Monday morning the 20th shows a tiny 2ft SE swell (period 6s) with light NNW cross-off wind, making it clean. Combined energy jumps to 57 – still weak, but it’s a surfable wave in very ordinary conditions. Not a highlight, just a chance to wet a line.
The only other moment that even registers is Sunday July 26th. The swell pushes up to 4ft from the SSE (period 7s), with combined energy hitting 125 – moderate energy at last. Sunday morning is clean with a light WSW cross-off wind, and Sunday afternoon actually sees gentle offshore NW wind, which is a major positive for cleanliness. But the swell is small and short-period, so it’ll be a bit soft and wonky.
Because this is an exposed reef, and the swell is from the SE, which matches the optimum direction, it’s the right angle. But the size is tiny, the period is short, and the spot is inconsistent and only for advanced surfers. There’s no real quality to recommend a trip. Monday the 27th drops back down to 2ft. So, if you’re desperate, Sunday July 26th is your best bet – but keep expectations low.
Signing off,
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.
