The Lowdown

G’day, Rusty here. Let’s break down what Point Roadnight’s got coming up. It’s a bit of a slow starter, then a solid pulse, then a quiet spell, before a few reminders later on.

The real standout is Tuesday, 14 July. We’ve got a 5ft swell from the WSW with a very long 15-second period, and the afternoon wind is 18 mph offshore. That’s a proper groundswell, and the energy is strong (11732 in the morning). Water temp is 58°, normal for the season. This is a point break that only rarely breaks, so when it’s on, it’s on. The swell direction is right on the optimum. This size is for the experienced crew only. The afternoon is pure offshore, so clean and lined up.

Wednesday, 15 July, eases to 6ft, SW, 15 seconds, with a light 9 mph offshore wind in the morning. Clean and cruisey, moderate energy (1237 am). Good for intermediates. Thursday morning, 16 July, is a gem: 6ft, SW, 15 seconds, with barely any wind. That’s clean, punchy, and moderate energy (1396). Friday, 17 July, afternoon is glassy with 5ft, SW, 17 seconds — very long period — and the energy’s 1555 (moderate). That’s silky smooth for the point.

Then it drops off. Saturday, 18 July, goes to 3ft, and from Sunday, 19 July, through Wednesday, 22 July, it’s a real lull. Swell heights are 2ft to 2ft, with weak energy (under 300). That’s about 5 days of flat or very ordinary surf.

Thursday, 23 July, brings a pulse: 5ft, SW, 14 seconds, but with 15 mph cross-off wind, so it’s lumpy. Energy’s moderate (1513 am). Friday, 24 July, has 5ft, SW, 15 seconds, but the wind is 18 mph cross, making it messy. Kite surfers would love it.

From 25 July to 29 July, it’s marginal. Swells from 4ft to 6ft, but the wind is often cross or cross-on, and the energy drops. The 27 July has a 6ft, SSW, 12-second swell, but it’s cross-on. The 28 July morning is glassy but only 3ft.

Best bets: Tuesday 14 July for the big groundswell for experts, and Friday 17 July afternoon for the glassy, long-period perfection. The rest is a waiting game.

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.
