Angourie Point Surf Forecast and Surf Report

G’day, Rusty here. Let’s have a yarn about what’s shaping up for Angourie Point over the next couple of weeks. It’s looking like a story of two halves: a flat start, a punchy but messy middle, and then a few cleaner windows that might actually deliver.

Right now, we’re sitting on a quiet spell. The first decent surf recommendation doesn’t kick in until Wednesday the 15th, but even that’s a bit ordinary – a 7ft SSE swell wrapping in with a short 7-second period, and a solid 19 mph southerly breeze making it messy. Combined wave energy is moderate at best (441), and the call’s poor. The water’s sitting at 69°, pretty much bang on average for this time of year, so no surprises there.

From Thursday the 16th through to Sunday the 19th, we’ve got a stretch of moderate to fresh southerly winds and solid swell – mostly 7ft to 8ft from the SSE to ESE, periods around 8 to 9 seconds. It’s consistent but not clean, with cross-off winds and combined energies climbing from 643 up to 1107. The surf’s there, but it’s more of an onshore slog than a thing of beauty. For experienced surfers only at this size – beginners, give it a miss.

Now, here’s the standout: Monday the 20th. Morning sees a 8ft ESE groundswell with a 10-second period, light 6 mph southerly breeze, and combined wave energy of 1091. The conditions are described as excellent for experienced surfers – that’s the one to circle. Angourie Point is exposed to the swell, and with the optimum direction being ENE, this ESE swell is in the right ballpark. The crowd factor is “sometimes,” so you might have a few mates out, but it’s worth it. That morning session is your best bet across the whole outlook.

Tuesday the 21st holds 5ft from the east, but the afternoon bumps up with an onshore NE breeze, so make the most of the morning. Wednesday the 22nd has a clean offshore WSW wind and 4ft east swell – a nice little run, but nothing huge.

After that, the second week (from Wednesday 24th through to Tuesday 28th) drops back to smaller stuff – mostly 3ft to 4ft east swells, with lighter winds and a few glassy moments on the 28th morning when the WSW breeze drops to glass. Combined energy’s weak (113 to 157), so it’s more a longboard or summer small-wave kind of vibe.

Bit of a flat run to start, but the 20th is the real gem. Keep an eye on that one.

Rusty.
