The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s look at what’s coming up for Angourie Point.
First up, the overall picture. We’ve got a bit of a flat start, but the energy is building through the week. Monday morning the 24th of August will be clean with glassy conditions, but the swell is tiny at 2ft from the ENE with a short 7-second period. The combined swell energy is low (77), so it’s more of a longboard or a SUP session. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so nothing wild there.
The real standout, and the one you want to circle on the calendar, is Monday morning the 31st of August. We’ve got a solid 5ft swell from the SSE, period 8 seconds, and the wind is offshore from the SSW at 6 mph. The combined energy jumps right up to 594, which is strong. The break is fairly consistent, so expect proper waves. Just keep in mind, with that size, it’s getting a bit much for beginners; you’ll want to be comfortable out there. The SSE swell is a good direction for this spot, and with offshore wind, it’ll be clean. Crowds are possible here, so expect some company.
Looking further out, Tuesday morning the 1st of September has a long-period 16-second groundswell from the SSE at 2ft, with combined energy of 405. The wind is cross from the NNW at 6 mph. This is a long-period swell, so it’ll be a bit more walled up at the point, with longer gaps between sets. It’s a promising option, but less certain given the distance out. Wednesday morning the 2nd of September also has a clean window with cross-offshore wind from the west at 6 mph and a 2ft ENE swell, combined energy 203. Not a standout, but a fun little session if the timing works.
There’s a gap from Wednesday afternoon the 2nd through to the end of the forecast, with mostly onshore or cross-onshore winds and poor surf conditions. The last morning, Monday the 7th of September, has glassy conditions with a tiny 3ft NE swell, but it’s weak and short-period, so only worth a paddle if you’re desperate.
Rusty out.

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.
