The Lowdown
Alright, let me give it to you in feet and miles per hour.
We’re talking Angourie Point here, and honestly, the next couple of weeks are mostly flat or weak – except for one morning that’s a genuine standout.
Water temp is 68°F – right where it should be for this time of year.
First few days? Not much to write home about. Saturday the 29th of August – a 3ft SSE swell with a cross-off breeze, combined energy of 240 – it’s weak. Sunday and Monday are waist-high at best, period around 8-9 seconds, so no power. Winds are cross-off or cross, so a little bumpy.
Tuesday morning the 1st of September – tiny but clean. You’ve got glassy conditions with a 3ft SSE swell, period 9 seconds, energy 222. It’s clean but small and inconsistent. After that, the whole week is a write-off: onshore winds, swell drops to 1-2ft, energy down to double digits. From Wednesday the 2nd through Saturday the 5th, the ocean is practically a pond with a light chop.
Sunday the 6th and Monday the 7th bring a little more wind and swell, but the direction goes NNE/NE and the period is pitiful – 4-7 seconds. That’s more of a kite-surf scene than a point break. Tuesday the 8th gives you a clean 2ft SSE – not worth the drive.
Now here’s the real highlight – Thursday morning the 10th of September. We see a 5ft SSE groundswell, period hitting 11 seconds. Combined energy is 507 – moderate but solid. And the wind? Glassy – just a slight air from SSW, so it’ll be silky smooth. That’s your window. The swell direction is SSE, not the ideal ENE for this point, but with zero wind, the wave shape will be long and walled – perfect for the advanced crew. Angourie is fairly consistent but can get crowded, so expect a few others with the same idea.
After Thursday, Friday the 11th has similar size but onshore winds creep in, then it’s back to small, weak windswell by the second weekend.
So here’s the word: if you want a day to remember, it’s Thursday the 10th of September, dawn patrol. Everything else is either tiny, choppy, or just plain flat. But that one morning? That’s worth the wait.

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.
