The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break down what the next couple of weeks look like.
Truth be told, the start is a write-off. The surf isn't in any hurry to show up, so don't be in a rush to hang your wetsuit up. The first real chance to catch something decent is early next week.
The clear standout, no question, is Friday morning, 18th September at Angourie Point. You’re looking at a clean 6ft swell from the SSE, with a period of 9 seconds. The wind? Glassy – absolutely dead calm – so that point is going to be as clean as a whistle. Water temp is 69°, pretty standard for this time of year. Combined wave energy is a solid 489 (moderate level) – not a beast, but plenty of push for some nice wrapping lines.
The next decent option is Saturday morning, 19th September. Swell drops to 3ft from the SE, but you’ve still got that glassy offshore wind from the W. It’ll be clean and small, good for a log or a fun mid-length.
Keep an eye on Monday morning, 21st September. It’s a small one – only 3ft – but from the SSE with a very long 19-second period, and flat calm winds again. That long period means the energy (400) will be there, and at a point break like Angourie, those long groundswell lines wrap around really well. It’ll be super clean, but don't expect much power.
After that, the outlook gets pretty grim. The end of the month and start of October is all onshore slop. The swell tries to get going a bit on Wednesday morning, 30th September, with 5ft from the NE, but the wind is onshore and ruining it. Not worth the paddle.
So, yeah, it’s a lean fortnight. The Friday and the following Monday are your best bets. The rest is mostly a write-off.
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.
