Point Roadnight Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, let's get into it. I'm Rusty, and I've been staring at the charts for Point Roadnight. It's a point break, and it's a rare one – doesn't break often, so when it does, you sit up and pay attention.

The next week and a half is a bit of a slow burner. We've got some days with a bit of size, but the wind is often going to mess it up, or the conditions are just ordinary. For the first few days from the 11th, we're looking at small, messy swell with onshore breezes – not worth paddling out for. The real story starts to build mid-week.

The standout, and I mean the absolute standout, is Tuesday the 14th. Holy moly. We're looking at a massive 15ft SW groundswell with a very long period of 15 seconds. The combined energy is enormous (12465), which is about as powerful as it gets. This is big, serious, expert-only territory. The wind is offshore from the W and WSW, moderate but clean. For a point break, that long period west swell will wrap in beautifully. This is the day for the chargers, and only the chargers. If you're not an expert, stay on the beach and watch.

Leading up to that, Monday the 13th has a build-up with 7ft – 8ft swell from the SW, period 16 seconds. It's still clean with cross-offshore winds, but the energy is building and conditions are still tagged as marginal. Wednesday the 15th and Thursday the 16th see the swell drop back to a more manageable 5ft – 6ft, with the period still hanging around 14 seconds. The winds become light to gentle and cross-offshore, making for clean conditions. Friday the 17th has a nice 5ft groundswell from the SW, period 16 seconds, with very light winds. It's a good, clean option for experienced surfers.

After that, the swell backs right down. From the 18th through the 20th, we're into a lull with small, weak energy and messy cross-shore winds. It looks like a kite-surfing setup more than anything on those days.

Then the second week looks like it might re-fire. Tuesday the 21st brings a 7ft SW groundswell with a 13-second period. The wind is light and cross-offshore, making for clean waves. This is another excellent option for experienced surfers. Thursday the 23rd and Friday the 24th have some more S/SW swell in the 6ft – 8ft range with clean offshore winds. It's promising, but being a week and a half out, treat it as a hopeful lookout.

So, your best bets are locked in for Tuesday the 14th for the big guns, and Friday the 17th and Tuesday the 21st for a solid, clean session without the massive size. Remember, this break is rarely working, so when the stars align like this, you get on it.

Rusty.
