The Lowdown
Alright, mate, Rusty here. Let’s break down the next couple of weeks for Angourie Point. A classic set-up, but the first part of the run is going to test your patience.
The water is sitting right around 69°F, which is pretty standard for this time of year, so no real surprises there.
The forecast kicks off with a messy Wednesday the 9th – onshore junk, not worth suiting up for. Then we see a push of bigger swell Thursday and Friday, with sets up to 12ft. But the wind is cross-off and it's just raw, unrefined power. It's more about survival than style, and not a great bet for most.
From the weekend and into the middle of next week, the surf drops right out. Some glassy windows pop up – like Monday the 14th morning and Thursday the 17th morning – but the swell is tiny, only around 2ft to 2ft. Not enough to get the heart pumping.
So we're looking at a real dry spell to start. Patience, mate. But the good news is that things are looking to fire up around Saturday the 19th. That is the standout day. We're looking at a solid southerly groundswell rolling in with waves up to 12ft in the morning, settling to 10ft into the afternoon. The wind is fresh and cross-off, which should groom those point breaks into something special. The energy numbers are massive, 2042 and 1581, so there's a ton of push behind it. At this size, Angourie is only for the very experienced crew. It's over 8ft, so we're firmly in expert territory. The direction is SSE, which is ideal for the point, and while the period isn't super long, it's still powerful.
Sunday the 20th will still have some size, around 7ft in the morning, but the wind goes more cross-on out of the east, making it a bit less clean. Saturday is the day to make the call.
And you know Angourie – when it fires, it draws a crowd. Expect company out there.
So that's the story: a quiet start, some blown-out days in the middle, and one proper day on the 19th worth getting excited about. Long-range, so take it as a promising forecast, not a guarantee. I'll be watching it.
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.
