Angourie Point Surf Forecast and Surf Report

G’day, Rusty here. We’ve had a bit of a flat spell, but the outlook for Angourie Point is starting to fire up. The first few days are a write-off, mate. Thursday the 23rd and Friday the 24th are barely a ripple with poor conditions, so you’re not missing a thing. The energy is just too weak to get excited about.

The real action kicks off Saturday morning, the 25th. That’s your first proper standout. The swell is a clean 4ft from the SSE with a very long 14-second period, and combined energy is pumping at 737 (moderate). The wind is light and offshore from the west, so it’s going to be glassy. For a point break like Angourie, that long-period groundswell is perfect – it’ll wrap in and offer some proper lines. Crowds are sometimes a factor here, so get in early. Water temp is 68°, which is about average for this time of year, nothing weird.

Sunday the 26th morning is also worth a paddle – 3ft from the SSE, 10-second period, light offshore wind from the WSW. The combined energy is 208 (weak to moderate), so it’s smaller but still clean. Not a standout, but a fun little session.

After that, we hit a real dry spell. From Monday the 27th right through to the end of July, the surf is tiny and messy. A few days of very ordinary, knee-high slop with poor conditions. You’re looking at a solid 5-day gap with no real recommendations.

Now, hold onto your board. The first week of August is where it gets interesting. Saturday the 1st morning has a solid 7ft from the SSE, but the period is short at 8 seconds, so it’s a bit of a windswell bump. Combined energy is 583 (moderate), and the wind is light and cross-off. It’s rideable, but for experts only at that size.

The true standout of the whole outlook is Thursday the 6th morning. Massive 15ft swell from the SSE, with a 13-second period. The combined energy is a staggering 10875 (very strong). This is a serious, raw groundswell. The wind is light from the SSE, cross-off, keeping it clean. This is for experienced surfers only – over 8ft is expert territory. A point break like Angourie will handle this size beautifully, but it’s a beast. Also keep an eye on Wednesday the 5th and Friday the 7th mornings – both have 10ft+ swell and clean conditions, though the wind is a bit more cross or cross-on. The 5th has moderate cross-shore chop, and the 7th has light offshore wind from the WSW, making it excellent for the experienced crew.

So, to sum it up: the best on offer is Saturday the 25th morning for clean, fun waves, and the big one is Thursday the 6th morning for the true standouts. The long-range stuff is promising but less certain – forecasts can change, so keep watching.

Rusty.
