The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the table for Angourie Point over the next couple of weeks.
It's a bit of a slow start, if I'm honest. We've got a 16-day window here, but don't expect much magic for the first week or so. The first few days are looking pretty ordinary with small, weak energy and mostly onshore or cross-onshore winds messing things up. The wait for something decent is gonna feel like a week.
The standout window is shaping up to be the start of September. Early on the 3rd of September, we finally get a proper clean run. The morning of Thursday the 3rd is the pick of the bunch. A light offshore breeze from the SSW is going to groom that 3ft easterly swell to perfection. The period is a solid 10 seconds, so you'll feel a bit of push, and the energy is moderate (205). With the optimum direction coming from the east-northeast, this is about as good as it gets for the point. It's an advanced wave, so it'll be a bit of a paddle out, but the shape will be there. Get ready for a fun session.
Before that, the 2nd of September has some improving energy – the swell is building into the moderate range (275 to 316) and the period stretches to 11 seconds, but the wind is still cross-off. It’s surfable for the keen ones, but it’s not the clean, lined-up perfection we’ll see on the 3rd.
The water temperature is sitting at 68°F, which is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there on the warmth front.
Overall, it’s a long wait for the good stuff, but that Thursday morning on the 3rd is worth keeping an eye on.
Stay frothing,
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.
