The Lowdown
Hey, Rusty here. Alright, we’re looking at a slow start, with the first real surf not showing up until Thursday morning, July 16th. It’s a messy beginning though. We’ve got a solid SSE swell building fast – that’s about 12 feet, but it’s short-period stuff at 8 seconds, and the wind is a cross-off from the SSE. That’s gonna make it choppy and tough. The water is a comfortable 69°, which is right on average for this time of year.
The real power shows up Saturday, July 18th, and Sunday, July 19th. The ocean is gonna be pumping. We’re looking at a massive, powerful SSE/SE groundswell, with heights pushing 13 to 15 feet. The combined energy is off the charts – 3527 – but the wind is still a strong cross-off. This is big, gnarly, and only for experienced surfers. At Angourie Point, the swell direction isn’t its absolute best, but with that much water moving, it’s still a serious ocean.
Monday, July 20th, sees the swell back down to a more manageable 10 feet, still from the ESE. The wind swings a bit more SE, and the morning has a cross-chop, but the afternoon cleans up with a cross-off breeze. The energy is still strong (1686-2199).
Now, the standout window. The best on offer looks like Tuesday, July 21st, and Wednesday, July 22nd. Tuesday morning the swell is 7 feet from the E with a 10-second period, and the wind is light. By Tuesday afternoon, it’s dropping to 6 feet, the wind is from the SSE at 10 km/h, and the surf conditions are forecast to be "very good". That’s our sweet spot. The energy is moderate (1022 dropping to 750), but it’s clean. Then Wednesday morning, the wind goes offshore from the SW, light at 10 km/h, with a clean 5 feet E swell. That’s a winner for a point break, offering long, peeling lines. The crowds can be a thing here, so keep an eye out.
After that, the swell drops off into small, ordinary 4-foot surf for the rest of the week. Not worth getting excited about.
The final week is a bit of a mixed bag of leftovers. Sunday, July 26th, afternoon sees a sudden spike of 7 feet from the SSE, but it’s short-period (7 seconds), so it’ll be a bit fat and lumpy. Then Monday, July 27th, morning, we get a very long-period swell (17 seconds) from the SSE, but it’s tiny at 1 feet. That’s a classic case of a long-period groundswell that just doesn’t have the height to do much. Later in the week, there’s a slight uptick on Wednesday, July 29th, afternoon to 6 feet from the SSE, but it’s marginal. Honestly, the second week is a bit of a dud.
So, if you’re picking one, it’s Tuesday afternoon, July 21st, at Angourie Point. Clean, nice lines, and a decent E swell. Wednesday morning is a close second with that offshore wind. Get on it.
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.
