The Lowdown

G'day, I'm Rusty. Let’s get straight into it. The surf window opens on Wednesday morning, 12 August, with a little pulse, but honestly, the next few days are a mixed bag. The standout window looks to be around Thursday morning, 20 August, through to the following Tuesday, with the best quality coming on that Thursday.

We start with Angourie Point on Wednesday morning, 12 August. The water temperature is about average for this time of year. We’ve got a small, clean 3ft swell from the SSE with a 10-second period. The combined swell energy is moderate at 230. A light W cross-off breeze is making it look clean. This is a fairly consistent spot, but with crowds sometimes, you’ll have company. Not a huge session, but a nice way to kick things off.

Wednesday afternoon turns average – a 2ft E swell with a 9-second period and a NNW cross-on breeze makes for a choppy, poor surf. Thursday the 13th is another small day, with a 2ft E swell and clean 10 km/h SW offshore in the morning, but the wave energy is weak at 63. Not much to write home about there.

Thursday arvo picks up a bit with a 4ft SSE swell but it’s cross-shore with a cross-chop, so leave it. Friday 14th morning looks much better: a clean 5ft SSE groundswell, period around 9 seconds, and a light SSW cross-off breeze. The combined energy is strong at 404. This is a solid, clean option at a point break – good shape potential. Friday arvo stays clean but the swell drops back to 4ft with moderate breeze.

Saturday 15th sees a jump in size – 5ft to 6ft of SSE swell – but the period is short (6-7 seconds) and the wind is a fresh S cross-off. Despite the clean look, the poor surf rating tells me it’s not coming together well. Sunday 16th drops right off with tiny 1ft ENE swell – absolutely flat for surfing.

Monday 17th and Tuesday 18th bring a building swell – 5ft to 8ft from the SE, but the wind is cross-shore with chop and there are rain showers or thunderstorms. That’s rough. The combined energy on Monday arvo is 675 (strong) but the conditions are poor. By Tuesday morning it’s 7ft at 489 energy – still messy.

Wednesday 19th holds 7ft to 8ft from the ESE with a cross-on breeze and thunderstorms – stay out of the water.

Now here’s the real highlight. Thursday morning, 20 August is where it’s at. Angourie Point has a clean 8ft E groundswell with a 10-second period, and a light S cross-off breeze. The combined energy is a very impressive 1048 (very strong). This is excellent, powerful surf for experienced surfers. The direction (E) isn’t quite the optimum ENE, but with that much energy and clean offshore wind, this will be a ripper session. Crowds are likely at this point break.

Friday 21st morning remains good with 6ft E swell, 10-second period, and a light SW offshore breeze – energy at 686, very good. Clean and fun for advanced surfers.

Saturday 22nd holds 7ft E swell with a 11-second period (long-period groundswell), but the wind is cross-shore in the morning and onshore in the afternoon. The energy is 986 – very strong, but the wind messes it up.

Sunday 23rd and Monday 24th see the swell drop to 5-6ft from the ENE, with moderate winds and cross-chop. Not great. Tuesday 25th has a clean 5ft ENE swell with offshore WSW wind in the morning – energy 236 – a decent but smaller option. Wednesday 26th remains small and clean.

If you’re heading out, the big winner is Thursday 20 August morning – no question. Bring your big-wave board and skill.

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.
