Angourie Point Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, grab your board and let’s have a look at what’s heading our way for Angourie Point over the next couple of weeks. I’ll walk you through it day by day.

Right off the bat, the first few days are a bit of a write-off, I’m not gonna lie. Thursday the 30th of July starts off with tiny, weak 1.3 ft NE windswell and a short 6 second period, and the wind is a messy cross-off from the S at 12 mph. The energy is basically nothing (13). It’s not really worth paddling out for. Thursday afternoon is similar with a 1.0 ft SSE swell, but the period jumps to 13 seconds, which is nice, but the swell is just too small. Friday the 31st sees a little more size, but it’s still poor. The morning has 2.3 ft at 12 seconds from the SSE, but the energy is only moderate (150) and the wind is cross-off again. By Friday afternoon, the swell bumps up to 4.3 ft from the SSE with a 9 second period, and the energy is moderate (474), but it’s still marginal. Saturday the 1st of August picks up to 6.2 ft from the SSE, but with rain showers and a strong S wind at 16 mph, it’s messy and cross-off. The energy is decent (566), but the quality isn’t there for a clean wave.

Now, Sunday the 2nd of August is where things start to look interesting. The morning session sees a clean 3.3 ft SE swell with a very long 14 second period. The wind is a light SSE breeze at 6 mph, making it cross-off and clean. The combined energy is moderate (788). This is a solid groundswell, and Angourie Point is a point break, so it should handle that long period well, offering some nice, lined-up waves. This is the first real standout. Sunday afternoon stays similar with 3.6 ft SE at 13 seconds, but the wind goes cross-shore, so it’s a bit less clean.

Monday the 3rd of August is a step back. The morning has 4.9 ft SE swell at 11 seconds, but the wind is a light cross-shore from the NW, and the energy drops (487). It’s marginal. Monday afternoon goes onshore from the NE at 12 mph, so it’s a no-go with 4.6 ft SE swell.

Tuesday the 4th of August morning has a small 3.0 ft SE swell with an 8 second period, but the wind is offshore from the SW at 6 mph, making it clean. The energy is weak (120), so it’s just surfable, not exciting. The rest of the week stays small and mostly poor until Thursday the 6th of August afternoon, when a 4.6 ft SSE swell arrives with a 10 second period and moderate energy (406), but the wind is a moderate cross-off from the SSE at 12 mph, leaving it marginal.

Friday the 7th of August sees a bump in size with 5.2 ft to 5.9 ft SSE swell, but the wind is strong at 16 mph from the S and SSE, making it cross-off and messy. The energy is moderate (418-521), but the quality is not there for a good session.

Now, Saturday the 8th of August morning is a real highlight. The swell is 5.2 ft from the SSE with an 8 second period, but the wind swings offshore from the SSW at 16 mph. The energy is moderate (346), and the offshore wind will keep the surface clean. This is a solid option for the more advanced crew, as 5.2 ft is a bit much for beginners. The afternoon blows up with a fresh 19 mph S wind, so it’s a morning-only window.

The following week starts to look promising again. Monday the 10th of August morning has a clean 3.6 ft SE swell at 10 seconds, with a light offshore SW wind at 6 mph. The energy is moderate (278). Tuesday the 11th of August morning is similar with 3.9 ft SE at 10 seconds and a light cross-off W wind, clean. Wednesday the 12th of August morning is the best of this stretch: 3.9 ft ESE swell at a long 12 seconds, with a light offshore WSW wind at 6 mph. The energy is solid (420). This is a beautiful groundswell with clean conditions. The point will handle that long period nicely.

Thursday the 13th of August has a clean morning with 3.6 ft ESE at 11 seconds and a light cross-off SSW wind, but the real standout is the afternoon. The swell jumps to 5.6 ft from the SSE at 9 seconds, with a light SSE breeze. The energy is very strong (794). This is the best
