The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here, and I’ve got the lowdown on what’s shaping up for the next couple of weeks at Angourie Point. This is a classic point break, exposed to the east-northeast, and it’s a fairly consistent spot, so we’ve got some windows to work with. The water temp is sitting around 68°, which is pretty much normal for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The pattern starts a bit slow, but it builds into a couple of real standouts. The first decent push comes in Wednesday morning, 22 July, with a clean 5ft easterly swell and a 9-second period. The wind is light and cross-off from the west-northwest, so it’ll be glassy and good. The combined energy is moderate at 363, and it’s a solid morning session. But that afternoon, the wind swings onshore from the northeast and it’s pretty ordinary, so chase the morning.
Thursday morning, 23 July, is clean again with a 4ft easterly swell and offshore southwest wind at 6 mph. The period is 9 seconds, energy is 207, and it’s a nice, tidy wave. The afternoon goes cross-shore, so the morning is the pick.
Friday morning, 24 July, is a write-off with a tiny 2ft swell and strong southerly wind, and the energy is weak at 67. The afternoon sees a jump to 6ft but from the south-southeast with a short 8-second period and moderate energy at 463 – it’s messy and marginal.
Now, here’s the first real standout. Saturday morning, 25 July, we’ve got a 6ft south-southeast groundswell with a long 14-second period, and the combined energy is strong at 1222. The wind is light and cross-off from the west-northwest, so it’s going to be clean and powerful. The long period means it’ll be a proper point-break wave – good shape, energy, and those longer gaps between sets. It’s excellent for experienced surfers, and at 6ft, it’s a ripper for the crew who know what they’re doing. The afternoon goes onshore, so the morning is the go.
Sunday morning, 26 July, is a step down but still fun with a 3ft south-southeast swell and 10-second period, light cross-off wind, and moderate energy at 302. It’s clean and surfable. The afternoon gets a bit cross-on with a 4ft, 12-second swell, but it’s not working as well.
The next week is a bit of a mixed bag. Monday the 27th has a 3ft south-southeast swell with a 9-second period and offshore wind in the morning, energy at 196 – it’s clean but ordinary. Tuesday the 28th is similar, with a 3ft swell and glassy conditions in the morning, but it’s weak. From Wednesday the 29th through to Thursday the 30th morning, it’s tiny and flat, with a 1ft and 0.3ft swell, and barely any energy. That’s a gap of a couple of days with nothing worth paddling for.
But then, Thursday afternoon, 30 July, it fires up again. A big 12ft south-southeast swell rolls in with a 10-second period, and the combined energy is very strong at 2535. The wind is cross-off from the southeast at 9 mph, and it’s excellent for experienced surfers only. At over 8ft, this is for experts. The morning of Friday, 31 July, keeps the energy high with a 8ft swell and 9-second period, energy at 1065, and clean cross-off wind. Another standout for the crew who can handle it.
Saturday, 1 August, has a 5ft east-southeast swell with a 9-second period, light cross-off wind, and moderate energy at 449 – it’s a good, clean option for the weekend. Sunday the 2nd drops to 4ft, and then from Monday the 3rd to Wednesday the 5th, it goes flat again with weak energy and poor conditions. That’s another gap of a few days.
The final pointer is Thursday morning, 6 August, with a 4ft south-southeast swell, 12-second period, and offshore southwest wind at 6 mph. The energy is moderate at 468, and it’s clean and promising. That afternoon, the swell jumps to 7ft with a 13-second period, but the wind goes cross-on, so it’s a bit suspect.
The best on offer is the Saturday morning, 25 July, with that long-period groundswell and clean conditions, and the Thursday afternoon, 30 July, for the big, powerful swell for experts. The crowds at Angourie Point can be around sometimes, so keep that in mind for the standouts.

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.
