The Lowdown

G’day, Rusty here. Right, so the outlook for Point Addis over the next couple of weeks is a bit of a mixed bag, typical for a reef set-up this time of year. The water’s sitting at about 57°F, which is pretty much what you’d expect for September – no major surprises there.

The first real chance to get amongst it is the morning of Saturday the 12th. The clouds are hanging around, but that north wind is blowing cross-off at 6 mph, keeping the surface clean. You’ve got a solid 6ft SSW groundswell muscling in with a 15-second period and a combined energy that’s pumping at (1427). It’s a bit on the bigger side, so this one’s for the experienced crew – the reef won’t be forgiving. That afternoon holds up nicely, too, with the swell dropping a touch to 5ft from the SW and the wind easing right back to 3 mph from the north, still cross-off. Clean lines at a reef that loves this direction.

Then we hit the jackpot. The morning of Tuesday the 22nd of September is the standout. It’s cloudy, but the wind is absolutely glassy – 0 mph from the WSW. The swell is a chunky 10ft out of the SW, a long-period groundswell at 16 seconds. That combined energy reading of (5554) tells you it’s got some serious grunt. Look, this is serious water – over 8ft means experts only, and the long period will make it wall up beautifully on this reef, but it might be a handful. If you’re not feeling bulletproof, the morning of Wednesday the 23rd is a good backup: still a strong 6ft SSW swell, clean with a light WSW cross-off at 3 mph.

A couple of things to keep in mind. The Saturday the 26th brings a raw 12ft SSW swell, but it’s short-period windswell (8-9 seconds) with a cross-onshore wind, so it’ll be a messy, choppy mess – that’s more of a kite session than a paddle session.

Crowds are a possibility at Point Addis – it’s a known spot and it gets “sometimes” busy, so pick your moment on the standouts.

All in all, the Saturday the 12th and the Tuesday the 22nd are your ones. Get in while the wind’s clean.

Rusty.

Information about the Point Addis Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Point Addis provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Point Addis can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Point Addis 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 (Point Addis) 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 Point Addis 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.

Point Addis is 29 km (18 miles) from the city of Geelong. If you plan a holiday in Torquay, look for hotels and other accommodation in Geelong. Geelong has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
