The Lowdown
G'day, I'm Rusty. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for Angourie Point over the next couple of weeks.
The story here starts with a bit of a wait, but the payoff is a solid run of waves building from the middle of next week. The first few days are a write-off, with some big, messy swell and strong cross-off winds that are just not doing the point any favours. We're talking Sunday the 19th through to maybe Monday the 20th, it's a no-go. The swell is big, but it's ugly. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing to report there.
Look, the real standout for this whole period is shaping up to be Tuesday the 21st of July. The early morning session is the pick. We've got a clean 7ft easterly swell with a 10-second period pushing in, and the combined energy is a solid moderate (1005). The wind is a gentle southeasterly cross-off, which will keep the point's lines clean and lined up. It's a bit on the bigger side, so best suited for experienced surfers, but the quality is there.
The rest of the week sees the swell slowly drop. Wednesday morning the 22nd still has some clean 5ft waves from the east with a light westerly offshore, but it fades quickly. After that, it goes flat and small. There's a long gap of small, weak, and often onshore conditions from Thursday the 23rd right through until the end of the month.
The real wildcard, and the second highlight, is a late-developing pulse that arrives on the last day of July. Friday the 31st of July morning is looking promising. The forecast shows a fresh 7ft south-southeast groundswell with a very long 15-second period, pumping in a heap of energy (2147). With a gentle westerly offshore, it could be nearly perfect. But, it's a long way out, so treat it as a promising prospect rather than a sure thing. That kind of period at a point like Angourie is a beautiful thing. For the first week of August, it looks like a consistent background of small to medium southerly swell, but those fresh cross-off winds will mean the wave faces won't be as clean as the standouts.
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.

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.
