The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s shaping up for Angourie Point. The next few days are pretty quiet, but there’s a couple of gems hiding in the back half.
Angourie Point is a classic point break, and it’s going to be a slow start. Saturday the 5th is a total dud with a tiny 1ft SSE swell and a strong onshore breeze – not worth getting wet. Sunday the 6th morning has a slight bump with a 2ft NE swell, but the period is a short 6 seconds, so it’s not going to have any punch.
Monday the 7th morning is where things start to look up. We’ve got a 6ft SSE swell rolling in, with a clean 9-second period, and the wind is a light cross-offshore out of the SSW. The wave energy is moderate (511), and the conditions are looking very good. This is a solid, clean option for the advanced crew. The water temp is about 69°, which is normal for this time of year.
Tuesday the 8th and Wednesday the 9th mornings both have decent swell—5ft to 6ft from the SSE—but the wind is a bit more mixed. Wednesday morning is the standout: glassy conditions with a 6ft SSE swell and a combined energy of 508. That’s a clean, smooth morning, perfect for a point break. The period is 9 seconds, so it’s a solid groundswell with good shape.
Thursday the 10th gets a bit bigger, with 7ft to 8ft SSE swell, but the period drops to 7-9 seconds and the wind is a fresh cross-offshore. That’s pushing into expert territory, and the energy is ramping up to 929. It’s still surfable for the experienced, but the quality is marginal.
Friday the 11th is another good one. A 6ft SSE swell with a 9-second period, clean cross-offshore wind, and combined energy of 998. That’s a solid, punchy swell with good conditions. The morning is the pick.
After that, the weekend of the 12th and 13th dies off again. Saturday the 12th has a 5ft SSE swell, but the wind is cross-shore and the conditions are poor. Sunday the 13th has a weirdly long 18-second period from the SSE, but the swell is tiny at 3ft, so it’s not going to do much.
Now, here’s the real standout. Way out at the end of the forecast, on Friday the 18th of September, we’ve got a monster session brewing. The morning is absolute glass with a 7ft SSE swell, a long 18-second period, and a combined energy of 2536. That’s a huge, powerful groundswell. For a point break like Angourie, that long period will produce some of the best, most lined-up waves you’ll see. This is for experienced surfers only—over 8ft is expert territory, and this is right on the edge. The wind is dead calm, so it’ll be a glassy, clean, unforgettable morning. It’s a long way off, so keep an eye on it, but this one has real promise.
The days leading up to it are mostly average, with a small 4ft SSE swell on Thursday the 17th morning looking decent, but nothing compared to that Friday.
So, overall, the best bets are Wednesday the 9th morning for a clean, solid session, and then the big one on Friday the 18th morning for the experienced crew. The rest is a bit of a gap, but that Friday is the one to circle.
Rusty.

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.
