Angourie Point Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s heading our way on the surf front for the next couple of weeks.

Angourie Point is our spot, and it’s a slow burn. The real juice doesn’t show up until the second week, but when it does, it’s a proper winter wallop. Water temp is about what you’d expect for this time of year—nothing wild.

First up, Thursday the 9th has some size but the wind is messy. 8ft of SE swell with a 10-second period and a moderate cross-off breeze, but the wave comment says it’s marginal. The combined energy reads at 1183, but it’s not clean enough to get excited about. Friday the 10th is similar, dropping to 6ft with a nicer 11-second period on the afternoon; wind is still cross-off though. Saturday the 11th morning is the first decent window: 5ft SE swell, period of 10 seconds, light W wind making it cross-off and clean. Combined energy is down to 558, but for a point break that likes its direction, it’s workable. That afternoon goes onshore from the NE and it’s done.

Sunday and Monday drop off fast. By Tuesday the 14th, it’s tiny and weak.

Then, brace yourselves—Thursday the 16th is the real standout. The morning session is pumping with 10ft of SSE swell at an 11-second period, and the wind is a solid offshore from the SW at 25 mph. The combined energy is massive at 2162, and the wave comment says excellent for experienced surfers. This is big, powerful, and clean. Only for the advanced crowd. The afternoon jumps to 12ft but the period drops to 9 seconds, and the wind picks up to 30 mph; still offshore, but getting a bit ragged.

Friday the 17th is still huge but the wind is ugly. 10ft of SSE swell with a 40 mph cross-off blow from the SSE, and 3259 combined energy—that’s a lot of water moving. The wave comment says marginal, and honestly, this looks more like a kite-surfing day than a fun paddle. Too much wind.

The weekend settles down. Saturday the 18th has 7ft SE swell, but the wind is a fresh offshore from the SSW at 35 mph in the morning, so it’s clean but stout. By Sunday the 19th afternoon, we get a beauty: 4ft SE swell, 9-second period, and glassy conditions with a 5 mph ESE breeze. That’s the kind of session you’ll be dreaming about. Combined energy at 296, but on a point break, it’ll handle that just fine.

After that, the swell fades into tiny, weak waves for the rest of the period. Monday the 20th onwards is mostly flat with poor conditions and barely any energy (less than 100). The very end around Thursday the 23rd and Friday the 24th has some knee-high junk from the north, but it’s short period and cross-on. Not worth the effort.

So here’s the take: Thursday the 16th morning is the big one for the experienced crew—big, clean, and powerful. Sunday the 19th afternoon is the pick for anyone wanting a clean, glassy session that’s a bit more mellow. The rest is mostly a flat patch with a few so-so windows early in the first week. Stay sharp.

Rusty.
