G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’m gonna level with you – the next couple of weeks are a real mixed bag. We’re dealing with a rare breaker, Point Roadnight, and it’s a classic point setup that doesn’t break often. There’s a big stretch of nothing after the first standouts, so let’s get into it.
We start Friday the 10th, but it’s only marginal. Swell is 3ft from the SW with a very long 15-second period, but the wind is a light cross-shore from the NNW at 6 mph. The energy is weak (421), and the water is a normal 58°F for this time of year. You might get a wave, but it’s a scratch. Saturday the 11th is a total loss – northerly winds building to 22 mph and swell dropping to 2ft, total chop.
Now, Sunday the 12th gets a pulse. Swell up to 5ft by morning and 6ft in the afternoon, from the SW with a moderate 12-second period. Wind goes cross-offshore from the WNW, and wave energy climbs to strong (718 and 1100). But conditions are rough with 22 mph winds – the point will be blown out.
The real standout is Tuesday the 14th. This is the day. We’ve got a 8ft SW swell (16-second period – very long period groundswell) with proper offshore wind from the W at 12 mph in the morning, then 7ft with WSW offshore at 16 mph in the afternoon. The wave energy is massive (2771 and 2352). This is big surf – over 8ft, so experts only. The long period means perfect peeling lines down the point, clean faces, and long lulls between sets. Expect a few locals, but on a Tuesday you might get away with it.
Monday the 13th is also solid (7ft, 16-second period, cross-off winds), and Wednesday the 15th holds at 6-6ft with light offshore breezes, both clean. Energy stays very strong (over 1300). Tuesday is the pick – big, offshore, and glassy.
After Wednesday, it drops off. Thursday the 16th goes to 4ft, and by Saturday the 18th we’re back to tiny junk under 3ft. The whole second week goes flat – from the 19th of July through to the 25th, swell stays below 3ft, wind is onshore or cross, and energy is pathetic (under 500 most days). There’s a little flicker on the 23rd and 24th with 4-4ft SW swells and offshore/cross-off winds, but it’s still marginal. It’s normal for this rare spot to go quiet like this.
So for the best: Tuesday the 14th at Point Roadnight. Big SW groundswell, perfect offshore wind, and that point will be firing. Don’t sleep on it.
Rusty.

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.
