The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's break down the next 16 days for Point Roadnight. It’s a point break that rarely breaks, so when it does, it's something special. The water temp is sitting at 57° – that's pretty much normal for this time of year, so no wild surprises there.
Looking at the whole run, the first week is a real struggle. We’ve got a few days of small, marginal swell and wonky winds, but nothing that’s really going to get the heart pumping. The 4th of August (Tuesday) morning has a bit of size at 8ft from the SW, but the wind is cross-off and the scores are pretty average. It’s a pass for me.
The real story here is the second week. It’s a late bloomer, but a beauty. The 11th of August (Tuesday) afternoon is the standout. We’re looking at a solid 10ft SW groundswell, and the wind goes glassy. That’s a recipe for perfection at this point. The combined energy is massive (4396), and it’s a clean, powerful swell. This is not for beginners – 10ft is serious, and this is an expert-only session. The period is 14 seconds, which is a proper groundswell, and at a point break, it’ll wrap in perfectly.
The 12th of August (Wednesday) morning is almost a carbon copy: 10ft from the SW, glassy winds, and incredible energy (4083). Another absolute ripper for the experienced crew. The 14th of August (Friday) is also a cracker, with 8ft from the SSW, glassy conditions in the morning, and a nice long 16-second period. That’s clean, lined-up, and powerful.
If you’re looking to get wet, skip the first week entirely. The 11th and 12th of August are the true golden tickets. After that, the swell drops, but the 15th and 16th offer some clean, smaller waves to finish the run. The 15th (Saturday) afternoon, with 5ft and glassy wind, is a good, fun size for a wider range of surfers.
Keep in mind, this is a spot that doesn't fire often. When it does, and the crowds are around, expect some company. But for a few days there in the middle of August, it’s going to be pure magic.
Rusty.
