Alright, groms and legends, Rusty here, giving you the lowdown in feet and miles.

The start of the run is a bit slow, so don't rush out. We're waiting for a solid pulse of swell to arrive around the middle of the month. The big window is the 14th and 15th, but there's a calm before that storm.

The first real chance is this Thursday morning, the 9th of July, at Point Roadnight. This spot is a rare bird, so when it lights up, it's a special treat. We're looking at a clean 3ft SW swell with a super long period of 16 seconds. That's proper groundswell, and with glassy conditions, it'll be a dream if you can snag one. The water is sitting at 14°, which is about average for this time of year. The combined energy is moderate at 497, so there's some push. Just a heads up, crowds can show up sometimes, so be ready for company.

The real highlight, though, is the Tuesday the 14th of July. The morning kicks off with a solid 8ft SW swell at 16 seconds, which is a long period. The energy is strong, with a combined energy reading of 2808. That's a lot of power, so this one is for experienced surfers only. The wind is a light cross-off from the WNW, keeping things clean. The afternoon goes even better, with a gentle offshore wind from the SW, making it clean and your best bet of the whole window. The 8ft swell is still pumping. This is the one to circle on your calendar.

After that, the swell sticks around but drops off. Wednesday the 15th of July morning is still a solid 5ft SW swell at 15 seconds, but the wind swings a bit cross-shore. It’s still rideable, but not as perfect as the day before.

The following week is a mixed bag. There's a nice little window on Friday the 17th of July with a 4ft SW swell and glassy conditions in the morning. It’s a smaller day, but clean. Then by the Tuesday the 21st of July, we get another pulse of SSW swell, but it's a bit wind-affected. The Tuesday afternoon is worth a mention with a 5ft SSW swell and clean, cross-off winds, making for some very good conditions.

The end of the run, around the 24th, fades out with small, weak swells and poor wind, so don't hold your breath for the last week.

So, to sum it up: the first few days are quiet, but the 14th of July is your absolute standout. Go big or go home on that Tuesday. The 17th is a clean, smaller option for a session.

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.
