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 start of the run is a bit of a write-off, to be honest. We’ve got a couple of days with barely a wave worth paddling for. Tuesday the 15th is flat and choppy, Wednesday the 16th is raw – a solid 10ft to 12ft SSE swell is roaring in, but it’s sloppy and the wind is on it, so it’s more of a washing machine than a point wave. That swell energy is massive though, hitting 1671 (very strong) on the Wednesday afternoon, but the conditions just aren’t cooperating for a quality session.
Thursday the 17th hangs onto some size at 8ft from the SSE, with clean conditions thanks to a cross-off breeze. It’s still on the bigger side – getting into that expert-only territory – but the point should handle it better than a beach break. Worth a look if you’re comfortable in solid waves.
Now, Friday the 18th morning is the standout window. Swell drops to 5ft from the SSE, and the wind goes glassy – dead calm – out of the west. That’s about as clean as it gets at Angourie Point. The wave energy is moderate at 375, and the period is 9 seconds, so it’ll be fun, lined-up sets with no wind to mess them up. The water temp is sitting about average for this time of year. This is your best bet of the entire outlook – get out there early.
The weekend fades quickly. Saturday the 19th sees smaller swell, onshore northeasterlies kick in, and the quality drops right off. Sunday the 20th is tiny, 2ft, and glassy in the morning but with barely any push. The following week is a mess – Monday the 21st has a 0.7ft SSE swell with a very long 19-second period, which is almost flat, and then we’re stuck in a run of small, onshore, or cross-shore junk through to the 28th. There’s a glimmer on Tuesday the 29th morning – a light offshore SSW breeze with a 4ft ENE swell – but it’s a long way off, and the energy is moderate at 328. Not a standout, but a cleaner option in a poor run. Wednesday the 30th morning has a clean cross-off breeze and 4ft from the east, but again, it’s nothing to get excited about.
Bottom line: Friday morning the 18th is the one to chase. Glassy, chest-high sets, and the point doing what it does best. After that, it’s slim pickings.
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.
