Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming down the pipe for Point Roadnight.

First off, the water temp is sitting at 57.9°, which is about average for this time of year, nothing wild there.

To be honest, the next week and a half is a bit of a struggle. We’ve got a decently long wait before anything really worth paddling out for shows up. The first solid window we’re looking at is around Sunday, July 12th. The swell starts to push up to 5.6ft from the SW with a period of 13 seconds, and combined energy hitting 903 – that’s moderate energy, so there’s some life in the water. Winds are cross-offshore from the NW at 25 km/h, keeping the surface clean. That’s the first real glimmer.

But the standout, and I mean the one to circle on the calendar, comes on Monday, July 13th. We’ve got a solid 6.9ft SW groundswell, with a 16-second period – that’s proper long-period groundswell. Combined energy jumps right up to 3488, which is strong wave energy. Now, Point Roadnight is a point break, and for a long-period SW swell like this, a point is exactly where you want to be – it’ll wrap in and set up nicely without just closing out. Winds are cross-offshore from the NW at 30 km/h, so it stays clean. This is going to be the best run of the whole forecast. Just a heads up though, at 6.9ft to 7.5ft, this is pushing into expert territory; it’s not one for the beginners.

Tuesday, July 14th keeps the quality going with similar size, 8.2ft from the SW, 16-second period, and strong energy at 3638. Winds are still cross-offshore from the NW at 20 km/h, so it stays clean again. That’s two days in a row of proper surf, but again, 8.2ft is for experienced folks only.

Later in the week, things drop off. July 17th has a small bump of 4.6ft SW swell with a 16-second period and moderate energy at 1709, but winds are cross-onshore from the ESE at 10 km/h. It’s marginal, but might be worth a look if you’re desperate.

The very end of the run, around July 22nd and 23rd, has some smaller clean waves. Morning of the 22nd has 3.6ft from the SW, period 15 seconds, with cross-offshore NW winds at 20 km/h, clean but small. The 23rd morning has 2.6ft from the SW with offshore winds from the SW at 15 km/h, clean but tiny. Those are more of a longboard or sneaky session.

Bottom line: the real deal is Monday, July 13th and Tuesday, July 14th. That’s your best shot. The rest of the window is either too small, too onshore, or too blown out. Don’t hold your breath for the first week, there’s a big gap of nothing.

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.

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.
