The Lowdown
How’s it goin’, Rusty here. Let me walk you through what’s in store for Angourie Point – a classic point break that’s gonna be a bit quiet most of the time, but there’s a couple sessions worth paddling out for.
Water temp is 68°F, right about average for this season, nothing out of the ordinary.
First few days are pretty grim. There’s a small chance on Wednesday morning the 26th: a 4ft NE swell, period around 7 seconds, with a light W breeze giving clean cross-off conditions. The combined energy is moderate at 214 – surfable, but not gonna set the world on fire.
Friday morning the 28th is the first real bright spot. Glassy conditions, light WNW wind, and a clean 3ft SSE swell with a 9-second period. Combined energy hits 284 (moderate). That’ll be clean and fun for a morning paddle.
But the one you really want to mark on your calendar is Monday the 31st of August. We’ve got a 3ft SSE swell, but the period is a very long 18 seconds – proper groundswell coming all the way in. Combined energy is a strong 968. Light SSE cross-off wind keeping it clean. For a point break like Angourie, this is perfect – long lines, proper shape, and the sets are spaced out so you’re not fighting too hard to get out. Crowds can pop up here sometimes, but with small surf it might not be too bad.
After that, the second week is mostly flat or weak. There’s a moment on Saturday the 5th of September with a 3ft SSE swell and light SSW offshore wind, but energy is only 184 – very weak. Tuesday afternoon the 7th of September has a brief glassy window with a 5ft SE swell and 8-second period, energy at 404 (moderate) – could be worth a look if you’re desperate.
There’s a big gap of about 5 days with almost nothing surfable between the end of August and that Tuesday glassy session. The standout, no question, is Monday the 31st of August morning. That’s the call.
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.
