Angourie Point Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming down the line for us.

Honestly, it’s a pretty quiet start and we’re going to be sitting through a lot of small, average days before anything really gets going. The first real chance to wet a line comes on Monday morning, the 13th, with a tiny 2ft swell from the ESE at 9 seconds at Angourie Point. The water is sitting at 69°, which is about average for this time of year. The wind is light and cross-off, so it’ll be clean, but the energy is weak (61) and the waves are barely there. It’s more of a cruise than a session.

We then have a long stretch of poor conditions from Monday afternoon right through to late Wednesday, with swells dropping to 0.7ft or 0.3ft, and onshore or strong cross-off winds. Not worth paddling out for.

Things finally start to change on Thursday morning, the 16th, when a solid 8ft SSE swell hits with a short period of 8 seconds. The combined energy jumps to 677, but the wind is a fresh cross-off from the south, and it’s likely lumpy. This is expert territory only—too big and raw for a beginner. The quality is marginal and the rain showers won’t help. That big, raw energy sticks around through Friday and Saturday, with swells between 6ft and 8ft, but the wind stays messy and the period is short, so it’s going to be a handful.

The standout window is Sunday the 19th. The morning brings an 8ft ESE swell with a 9-second period, and the combined energy is massive at 1156. The wind is a moderate cross-off from the SSE, so it’ll be clean enough for a point break like Angourie Point. This is the best of the lot—big, powerful, and with the right offshore flow. It’s still a heavy wave, so only for the experienced crew. The crowds are “sometimes” an issue here, so you might have some company if you paddle out.

After that, through Monday the 20th and Tuesday the 21st, the swell slowly drops from 7ft down to 4ft, with the wind turning more cross-shore and the energy falling. It’s still surfable, but nothing special.

The rest of the second week, from the 22nd onward, fades into small, weak surf with swells under 3ft, light winds, and very little energy. There are a few clean mornings with tiny cross-off winds, but it’s mostly just a paddle. The 27th (Monday) shows a small uptick to 3ft, but it’s not enough to get excited about.

Overall, if you’re after a proper session, Sunday the 19th is the day to circle. The rest is for the die-hards or the longboarders.

Rusty.
