The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for Point Roadnight over the next couple of weeks.

First up, this break is a point setup that rarely breaks, so when she does turn on, you’ve gotta be on it. The water temp is pretty standard for this time of year, nothin’ wild to report there.

We kick things off on Thursday, July 30th, with clean, glassy conditions right from the morning. Moderate offshore wind from the WSW is grooming a 5ft SSW groundswell at a nice 13 seconds. The combined energy is solid at 837 – plenty of push. This is the standout of the whole forecast: very good surf, clean, with that long period making for proper shaped waves. Expect a few sets to roll through, and there might be a crowd around sometimes, but it’ll be worth it.

Friday the 31st keeps the fun going with a smaller 4ft SW swell in the morning, clean again, and the combined energy is a moderate 371. Still good, just a step down in size. By the afternoon, a slight cross-off wind keeps things tidy.

Saturday the 1st of August gets a bit tricky. A long 17-second period swell hits but with a cross-on breeze in the morning, makin’ for a messy surface. The afternoon cleans up a touch with a cross breeze, but the combo of a big 2010 combined energy and that long period at a beach-friendly point like this can mean it breaks a bit straight. It’s marginal.

Sunday the 2nd is a write-off with moderate cross-shore winds and a cross-chop. Poor conditions. Skip it.

Monday the 3rd brings a big change. Moderate offshore wind returns, with a 4ft SW swell in the morning – very good surf. But watch out for the afternoon: the swell jumps to 8ft from the SW with a combined energy of 2405. That’s strong, and the period drops to 14 seconds. That’s expert territory and the conditions are marginal due to the size. If you’re a charger, it’s on, but it’s not for the faint-hearted.

Tuesday the 4th stays big in the morning at 8ft, with offshore wind, still only for the experienced crew. It drops right off by the afternoon to 4ft.

From Wednesday the 5th through Thursday the 6th, the swell settles into the 2ft to 4ft range with clean conditions and light winds. Decent small-wave fun.

Friday the 7th of August serves up a 7ft SW groundswell with a very long 16-second period. Combined energy is a massive 2526. That’s a lot of power. But the wind is light cross-shore, which keeps it from being pristine. The long period at a point means it’ll hold up well, but it’s another one for the experienced.

Then we hit a dry spell. From Saturday the 8th through Sunday the 9th, it’s onshore and choppy. Poor surf. Monday the 10th starts rough but cleans up in the afternoon with a cross-off breeze. Small improvement.

Tuesday the 11th has moderate cross-off wind, then Wednesday the 12th brings back clean offshore wind with a very small 2ft swell but a super long 21-second period. The combined energy is moderate at 579, so it’ll have some shape, just tiny.

Thursday the 13th of August is another potential standout for the second week. You’ve got a 5ft SW swell with a 17-second period, combined energy of 1192, and clean conditions with a cross-off breeze. That’s very good surf again. The long period groundswell will peel nicely down the point.

Friday the 14th is a bit of a letdown – a 5ft swell but with a strong cross-shore wind making for a chop. Hard pass.

So to wrap it up, the absolute best day is Thursday July 30th – clean, consistent, and solid. The other peak is Thursday August 13th – that’s your second-week promise, just remember it’s further out and less certain. There’s a gap of poor surf from the 8th to the 9th, and again on the 14th, so pick your windows.

Stay salty.

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.
