The Lowdown
Alright, let’s break this down for Angourie Point.
This is a point break for advanced surfers, fairly consistent, taking swell from the east-northeast. Water temp is about average for the season.
The first week and a half is a tough slog. Monday the 10th kicks off with a 7 ft NE swell (8 seconds) and onshore wind – total mess, lots of energy but no quality. Tuesday the 11th drops to 2 ft, tiny but clean with a light offshore wind. Wednesday the 12th is 2 ft, same story – clean but small, weak energy. Thursday the 13th is even smaller at 2 ft.
Friday the 14th through Saturday the 15th sees a bump to 5-5 ft from the SSE, with 9-second period and clean cross-off winds. These are marginal but rideable. By Sunday the 16th, it’s back to 3 ft with a short 6-second period – weak.
The whole next week up to the 20th is mostly small, short-period, and often choppy. Energy readings are low.
Now for the standout. Sunday the 23rd of August is the real deal. Morning is glassy – zero wind – with a 7 ft east swell, 10-second period. That’s very strong energy (882). For a point break, that long-period groundswell is perfect: powerful, well-shaped waves. The swell is over 8 ft, so this is experts only. The afternoon holds at 7 ft with a light cross-on, still clean. The notes say “expect very good surf conditions” for the morning. Crowds are possible, but it’s a point break so it spreads out.
Monday the 24th morning is also a beauty – glassy offshore wind, 5 ft east swell, 10-second period (463 energy). Clean and punchy. The afternoon gets onshore and messy.
There’s a long gap of poor or tiny surf before that Sunday. If you’re patient, the 23rd and 24th are the only true standouts. Friday the 21st morning is also decent at 5 ft, clean, but not as special.
Bottom line: the next week and a half is mostly flat or messy. Circle Sunday the 23rd of August – glassy, solid, long-period east swell at a point break. That’s the session to wait for. Monday the 24th morning is the backup.

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.
