Table - best surf conditions forecast for Point Addis over the next 16 days.
Alright, let’s get into it. This is Point Addis – a reef break that loves a solid SW groundswell. The start is slow, but it builds into something epic.
First up, Sunday the 12th is a no-go. Light rain, a fresh cross-offshore breeze at 19 mph, and a messy 6 ft SW swell with moderate energy (901). The face is clean but the tide’s marginal. Skip it.
Monday the 13th is where it’s at. Morning brings a fresh offshore NW breeze at 22 mph and a 8 ft SW groundswell cranking with very strong energy (2620). That’s a 16-second period – long, powerful lines. Afternoon stays clean with an 8 ft SW swell and energy hitting 3021. Over 8 ft is expert-only. If you’ve got the nerve, this is the best of the whole outlook.
Tuesday the 14th keeps the heat. Morning has a 8 ft SW swell (2545 energy) with cross-offshore wind. Afternoon is a monster – 13 ft SW swell, 15-second period, energy at 9718. That’s insane. Only for the most experienced. Wind is moderate cross-offshore, so it’s clean but heavy.
Wednesday the 15th eases off. Morning: 6 ft SW swell (1358 energy), gentle offshore, clean. Afternoon goes cross-shore with a light breeze and a 5 ft swell (1016 energy). Still surfable but not the highlight.
Thursday the 16th is a gem. Morning light offshore, 5 ft SW swell (910 energy), clean. Afternoon goes glassy – S wind at 3 mph, dead calm, with a 5 ft SW swell (1177 energy). Beautiful, clean conditions for experienced surfers.
Friday the 17th is similar. Morning offshore, 5 ft SW swell (1360 energy), clean. Afternoon glassy again with a 5 ft swell (964 energy). Lovely.
From Saturday the 18th, the swell drops. Saturday morning: 3 ft SW (281 energy), clean but small. Afternoon glassy, 3 ft (205 energy). Sunday the 19th is tiny – 1 ft SW (136 energy) with a weird 19-second period in the afternoon. That’s super long, meaning it’ll be straight and weak at the reef.
Monday the 20th through Wednesday the 22nd stay small, with swell under 4 ft and energy under 600. A few clean offshore windows, but you’ll be scratching.
Thursday the 23rd to Sunday the 26th are marginal. A few spikes – like Saturday the 25th with a 4 ft SW swell (920 energy) and gentle offshore wind – but nothing special. The final Monday the 27th has a fresh offshore but a short-period 6 ft SSW swell (8 seconds, 1117 energy) – that’s junky windswell.
The standout is Monday 13th and Tuesday 14th. Monday morning’s 8 ft SW groundswell with offshore wind is world-class. Tuesday afternoon’s 13 ft beast is only for the brave. Crowds at Point Addis are sometimes an issue, but on a swell this size, it’ll sort out the crew.
Water temp is about 58°F, which is average for the time of year – no surprises.
Wait for Monday. That’s the call.

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.
