The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's happening at Angourie Point.
Looking at the next 16 days, there's a real narrow window of good surf, then a long stretch of small or messy stuff. Here's the run-down.
The one to circle on your calendar is Wednesday morning, September 9th. Angourie Point is looking glassy, with a clean 5-foot swell from the SSE, period around 8 seconds. The water is about 69°, which is normal for the season. The combined swell energy is 350 (moderate). With no wind and a glassy surface, this is the best you're going to get. Get out there early, because the wind swings onshore in the afternoon and it goes downhill.
Thursday the 10th is big. Swell is 10 to 12 feet from the SSE, period 9 seconds. The energy reads 1686 and 1253 (strong). The wind is a cross-off from the south, so it's clean, but this size is for experts only. It's a margin call.
From Friday the 11th through Sunday the 13th, the swell drops from 7 feet down to 3 feet, with periods around 8-9 seconds. Wind is cross-shore or cross-on, with some rain. Energy drops from 616 to 255. It's surfable, but nothing special.
Then it goes quiet. From Monday the 14th right through to Tuesday the 22nd, the swell is mostly under 3 feet, with weak energy readings under 140. The wind is often onshore or cross-on. There are a couple of glassy mornings on the 14th (2 feet, SSE) and the 23rd (3 feet, ENE), but the waves are tiny. That's about an 8-day gap in any real surf.
There's a small bump on the 23rd of September, with a clean 3-foot swell from the ENE, but the afternoon brings a 5-foot onshore wind. The 24th is windy and clean, with a 4 to 7-foot range, but the wind is blowing 30-35 km/h, which is more for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
The winner is clear: Wednesday morning the 9th. The rest of the 16 days are mostly a write-off. Keep your expectations low.
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.
