The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. So we’re looking at just one spot for the next couple of weeks: Point Roadnight. It’s a point break, but it rarely breaks, so you gotta be patient. Don’t bother with the first few days – the first real action is Sunday the 6th.
Water temp is around 57°F, pretty normal for this time of year.
The big standout is Sunday afternoon, September 6th. You’ve got 8ft of SSW groundswell with a 14-second period, and a massive 2955 energy reading. The wind is light offshore from the SW, making it glassy and clean. This is expert territory at that size, but if you’re up for it, this is the session.
Monday the 7th morning is still solid with 6ft SW swell and 12 seconds, cross-off winds, but not as crisp as Sunday.
Thursday the 10th morning brings a heavy 10ft SSW groundswell (5895 energy) with a gentle offshore, but the afternoon gets cross-off and lumpy. Experienced crew only.
Friday the 11th morning is a hidden gem: 6ft, glassy, and 15-second SSW groundswell. Clean as it gets.
Into the second week, Wednesday the 16th morning has a massive 12ft SW groundswell (6440 energy) but cross-off winds, so it’s raw and a bit messy. The afternoon improves with lighter wind and 8ft.
Thursday the 17th morning is another highlight: 8ft SSW groundswell, 16 seconds, and glassy. Perfect for the experts.
There’s a quiet spell around the 13th and 14th where it goes flat and poor, but it picks up again mid-week.
Best bets: Sunday afternoon the 6th and Thursday morning the 17th. Get on it.
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.
