The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Gonna take you through the next 16 days at Angourie Point. We’ve got a bit of a slow start, but there’s some light at the end of the tunnel.
First up, the water temp is sitting at 68°, which is pretty much bang on average for this time of year. Nothing to write home about.
The first few days are a bit of a write-off, to be honest. Monday the 3rd through to Sunday the 9th is mostly a struggle. We’ve got some small, weak swell, but the combo of onshore winds, short periods, and just generally poor conditions means you’re better off staying on the beach. There’s a glimmer on Wednesday morning the 5th with a light offshore and a 3ft, 10-second swell from the east, but it’s tiny. The combined energy is weak, barely pushing 121. Not worth rushing out for.
We finally get a bit of a pulse on Friday the 14th afternoon. It’s a chunky 10ft from the SSE, but with a short period of 9 seconds and a light cross-onshore breeze, it’s going to be messy. The energy is strong at 1236, but the quality is questionable. This one is for the experts only, and even then, it’s a gamble.
The real standout, and the one to circle on the calendar, is Saturday morning the 15th. We’re looking at a solid 7ft from the SSE with a period of 8 seconds. It’s a bit short-period, but the wind is light and variable, with a clean cross-offshore breeze. The combined energy is a hefty 660, so there’s plenty of power. Expect very good surf conditions. This is a heavy wave for a point break, so it’s definitely for advanced surfers only. Over 8ft is for experts, and this is right on the edge. Paddling out might be a mission with the size, but the sets will be well-defined. It’s a point break, so it should handle the size better than a beachie. Crowds are a possibility, it’s a classic spot.
After that, it’s a bit of a mixed bag. Tuesday morning the 18th looks promising again with a 3ft east swell, 10-second period, and a clean offshore from the SW. The energy is moderate at 260. Good surf conditions are expected. A much more manageable size for a broader range of surfers.
So, bottom line: the first week and a half is a bust. The only real standout that’s worth the hype is Saturday the 15th morning for the big-wave crew. Tuesday the 18th is a good, solid option for the rest of us. Keep an eye on the forecasts, but for now, that’s the call.
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.
