The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. We’ve got a bit of a mixed bag on the cards for Angourie Point over the next couple of weeks, but there are some definite windows to get excited about.
The overall pattern starts off pretty flat and grim, with only tiny, weak swell on Wednesday the 12th. The water temp is sitting at 68°, which is pretty normal for this time of year, so no surprises there. The first real glimmer of hope doesn’t arrive until Friday morning the 14th, with a clean, cross-off breeze and a 5ft SSE swell pushing moderate energy (353). It’s not huge, but it’s clean and surfable.
After that, things get messy. A strong south wind blows through the weekend, trashing the surf quality with poor conditions on Saturday the 15th and Sunday the 16th. There’s a bump of energy on Monday the 17th – 5ft SSE swell with moderate energy (548) – but the wind is cross and the conditions are only marginal. That window is tight, and the following days stay fairly ordinary with rain squalls and cross-shore winds.
Now, here’s the real standout. Look toward Thursday morning the 20th of August. The swell pushes up to 5ft from the east with a period of 9 seconds, and the energy jumps to a solid 470 – that’s a decent pulse. But the kicker is the wind: glassy, dead calm. That’s a rare treat for a point break like Angourie, and it’ll be clean as a whistle. This is your best bet for the whole outlook – a great chance for an advanced session with long, peeling lines. That said, it’s a fairly consistent spot, but it can get crowded sometimes, so get in early.
From there, the swell slowly drops off through the end of August and into the final week. Friday the 21st and Saturday the 22nd still offer clean morning sessions with 4ft waves from the east-northeast, but the energy is lower (around 291 to 300). The second week looks much quieter, with swell shrinking below 3ft and only occasional clean windows, but nothing exciting. By the 27th, we’re down to just 1ft and flat.
So to sum it up: a rough start, a messy weekend, but a golden, glassy morning on Thursday the 20th is the one to circle. The rest is mostly ordinary, with a few half-decent mornings if you’re keen, but don’t expect much past that.
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.
