Angourie Point Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming our way for the next couple of weeks. We’ve got one spot on the radar, and it’s a classic.

The outlook starts with a bit of a hiccup. There’s no real surf to get excited about on the immediate horizon; the first proper recommendation doesn’t kick in until Monday the 7th of September. After that, we’ve got a run of swell, but it’s a mixed bag of conditions, with a few standout windows for the punters who know what they’re doing.

Angourie Point is your only option here, and it’s an exposed point break that needs an easterly swell to really light up. It’s a spot for advanced surfers only, and it’s fairly consistent with sometimes crowds, so expect company.

The week starts with a promising morning on Monday the 7th. We’re looking at a clean 6ft SSE groundswell, with a period of 9 seconds. The wind is a light cross-off from the SSW at just 3 mph, which will keep things tidy. The combined energy is a solid moderate 511. Water temp is 69°, which is pretty much bang on average for this time of year, so you won’t need the thickest rubber.

Things get a bit messy Monday afternoon as the wind swings onshore, so bail out early.

The real standout for the early part of the outlook? Wednesday morning the 9th. The swell drops to a still fun 5ft from the SSE, but the wind goes glassy—absolutely dead calm from the NW. That’s a major positive. The wave energy is moderate at 357, and with zero wind, Angourie will be as clean as a whistle. This is your best bet for a smooth, long-point ride.

The end of the first week and into the second week sees a big pulse of energy. Thursday the 10th morning pumps out an 12ft SSE swell, with energy readings up at a very strong 2006. But look, that’s expert territory. The wind is a stiff 19 mph cross-off, so it’ll be clean but gnarly. That’s big, powerful lines only for the well-equipped. Friday the 11th stays big with a 10ft swell, but it’s still cross-off, so it remains a show for the brave.

From Saturday the 12th through the middle of the next week, the swell drops, but the conditions get fiddly with shifting winds and periods of rain. The energy stays in the moderate range. It’s surfable, but nothing to write home about.

There’s a second notable window on the far horizon. Saturday the 19th afternoon has good vibes. The swell is a modest 4ft from the SE, period of 10 seconds, and the wind goes absolutely glassy again—calm, dead flat. Energy is moderate at 349. It’s a small, clean close to the fortnight.

After that, the last couple of days are small and mostly onshore, with only a glassy moment on Monday the 21st morning (2ft, energy 147) to give you a solo dawny if you’re desperate.

So, to wrap it up: Wednesday the 9th morning is your top-tier call for clean, manageable waves. The big Thursday the 10th is for the chargers. The rest is a waiting game with a few smaller glassy windows.

Stay keen, stay patient.
