G’day, Rusty here. Let’s talk Point Roadnight over the next couple weeks. This is a point break that doesn’t fire often, so when it does, you better be ready.

Water’s about 58°F, right on average for the season.

Kicking off Tuesday July 7, we’ve got a clean 4ft SW groundswell rolling in with a 17-second period. Glassy conditions thanks to a light ESE breeze at 3 mph. Wave energy’s moderate (677). That morning is a real standout—smooth lines, offshore vibes. Afternoon goes cross-on, so don’t be late.

Wednesday July 8 pushes the swell to 4ft–5ft, still SW, period stretching to 18 seconds. Energy climbs to 1240 and then 1447 in the afternoon. But it’s cross-on all day, so the surface gets a bit rough.

Thursday July 9 morning goes glassy again with a light NNW breeze, swell 3ft from the SW, 16-second period. Energy moderate (489). Clean conditions. Afternoon turns onshore, so get out early.

Then we hit a dry spell from Friday July 10 through Sunday July 12—strong winds up to 19–22 mph, small sloppy swell. Not worth it.

Monday July 13 turns the corner. Swell jumps to 8ft from the SW, 16-second period, with a fresh offshore W wind at 22 mph in the afternoon. Combined energy hits 4068—that’s strong. This is experts-only territory. Tuesday July 14 stays at 7ft, clean with light offshore winds, energy still high (3828). Wednesday July 15 is the absolute highlight: 7ft–8ft SW swell, 14–15 second period, moderate offshore winds from the WSW/SW all day. Energy’s strong (2072–2809). Clean, powerful, and lined up. That’s your day.

Thursday July 16 drops to 5ft in the morning, 12-second period, light SW breeze—clean and fun. Afternoon’s smaller at 3ft. Friday July 17 morning’s a write-off, but the afternoon cleans up with a cross-off breeze and a 3ft SW swell at 16 seconds—could be a sneaky clean session.

Saturday July 18 and Sunday July 19 are lumpy and messy. Monday July 20 is flat and windy.

Tuesday July 21 morning roars back with a 7ft SW swell, 17-second period, energy a massive 4282. Light cross-off NNW breeze at 12 mph keeps it clean. Another standout for strong surfers. Afternoon goes cross-shore and choppy. Wednesday July 22 holds at 6ft but gets lumpy with fresh wind.

Best bets: Wednesday July 15 for the cleanest power, and Tuesday July 21 morning for a big, clean groundswell. This break rarely breaks, so when it does and the wind plays nice, it’s a special thing.

Rusty.

Information about the Point Roadnight Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Point Roadnight provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Point Roadnight can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Point Roadnight 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 Roadnight) 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 Roadnight 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 Roadnight is 36 km (22 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.
