Mole Point surf guide

Mole Point is a surf spot located on the south side of Point Joe, where you can often see surfers in the background while people are teeing off at Pebble Beach. It's a kelpy right reef with a solid vibe and offers a unique surfing experience. The wave can get juicy, maxing out at around 8 feet (about 2.4 meters), making it suitable for those looking to catch some decent action.

The surf here works best with swells coming from the South, South-West, West, and even North-West, and it can handle sizes ranging from about 3 feet (0.9 meters) to 8 feet (2.4 meters). The wave breaks over both rock and sand, with a right-hand wave direction that caters to intermediate and expert surfers. For the best conditions, aim for medium to high tides and a wind blowing from the East, East-South-East, or South-East. It’s recommended to use shortboards, funboards, or guns depending on your skill level and the wave height.

Getting to Mole Point is pretty easy with parking available along the road. Just keep in mind that it can get crowded in the tight area, especially during peak times. The local vibe is noticeable, so be respectful of the surfers who often call this spot home. Overall, it’s a clean environment, but be cautious of hazards like bad slices, rocks, and kelp that can catch you off guard. This spot is surfable year-round and tends to be more favorable during the spring, summer, and autumn months.

Readme

Welcome! If you’re new to surf forecasting, check out this quick guide.

Forecast Cheat Sheet

Short on time? Focus on wave energy. It’s the best single metric to gauge how big and powerful the waves will be.

Click any table cell to jump to that forecast hour. The map will update with forecast arrows, so you can see if wind and swell direction are lining up.

Use the table sidebar to switch units for height and speed.

Log your surf sessions to compare forecasts with real sessions and sharpen future predictions.

On the map, click a metric label to bring that arrow to the front — handy when arrows overlap.

Models and Updates

Surfnerd blends multiple global and local wind and swell models using advanced interpolation and spatial techniques to create an "ensemble" forecast. Forecasts are refreshed hourly.

Surf Predictions

Our AI-driven algorithm scores surf quality, shown by green, orange, and gray dots. Each forecast hour is rated for wind, swell, and tide quality, then combined into an overall score. Here’s the scale:

Perfect
Good
Average
Bad or No Data

Session logs also feed the algorithm — the more you log, the smarter your forecasts get.

With Surfnerd, no more "you should have been here yesterday"

Wind certainty

Wind certainty tells you how much the weather models agree on the forecast.

  • High certainty: Models agree closely; forecast is reliable.
  • Medium certainty: Some disagreement; conditions may shift slightly.
  • Low certainty: Models diverge; treat forecast with caution.

We calculate this by comparing wind speed, gust and direction from multiple models (like GFS, ECMWF, Arome, and Harmonie) and seeing how closely they match. They are weighted, meaning that some models count more than others, depending on how good they are for a certain spot.
