The Lowdown
Alright mate, let’s swap over to feet and degrees.
Right now the surf is flat and depressing. Nothing worth paddling out for until around Thursday, August 14th. That morning we might see a pulse of about 6 feet from the SSE, wind light offshore, but it’s going to be messy with the tide. Not a guarantee, just a maybe.
The real action starts Monday morning, August 18th. Swell hits around 6 feet from the SE with an 11-second period, and the energy is pumping (801). Winds are light offshore, keeping the surface clean. You’ll have to deal with some storm clouds but it’s the first solid window.
The absolute best day is Wednesday morning, August 19th. Clean 6 feet from the SE, 9-second period, energy at 661. Light offshore wind means smooth shoulders and long rides down the point. This is your session. Expect a few others to have the same idea though.
Thursday morning, August 20th brings a bigger 7-foot east swell with offshore winds from the WSW. Energy is strong at 645. This one is for experienced surfers only – it’s going to be powerful.
Then Monday, August 24th finishes strong with a clean 5-foot east swell, long 11-second period, light offshore wind, and energy at 540. Glassy conditions and good shape.
Water temp is around 68°F, about average for this time of year. You’ll want a 3/2 wetsuit.
Bottom line: suffer through the flat spell, then target Wednesday the 19th and Thursday the 20th for the best waves. Swell direction suits the point, winds are favorable, and the energy is there. Crowds are likely at the peak times.

Information about the Angourie Point Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Angourie Point provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Angourie Point can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Angourie Point 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 (Angourie Point) 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 Angourie Point 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.
