Angourie Point Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for Angourie Point over the next couple of weeks.

It’s gonna be a bit of a slow start, but there’s a real standout window that’ll get the blood pumping. For the first few days, it’s pretty flat and ordinary, so patience is the key.

Honestly, Saturday and Sunday are a write-off. Tiny wave energy, with combined energy readings barely getting out of the double digits (23 to 91). The swell is small and the winds are all wrong, so don’t even bother paddling out just yet.

Now, Monday the 7th – that’s where things start to look interesting. We’ve got a solid SSE swell pushing through at about 6ft with a period of 10 seconds, and the combined energy jumps right up to 554 (moderate energy). It’s big enough for the advanced crew, but still manageable. The wind is light and offshore out of the south, so the point will be clean. This is the first real option and it has some punch.

Tuesday the 8th is a bit of a mixed bag. The morning gets messy with rain showers and stronger onshore winds, so the quality drops away, even though there’s still some size. The afternoon brings a touch more size at about 8ft, but the wind is still cross-off, so the surf will be bumpy. The combined energy spikes up to 875, but it’s hard to get excited with that wind on it.

Wednesday the 9th and Thursday the 10th see the swell hanging in there. Thursday morning is a big one, with about 10ft of swell and energy readings over 1400 (strong energy). That’s hefty, and definitely expert territory. The wind is cross-off and strong, so it’ll be a wild, powerful ocean. The swell period is short (8 seconds), so it’s going to be a bit of a washing machine – more of a challenge than a pleasure for most.

Through the middle of the month, we get a drop-off. The swell backs off to under 3ft, and the quality is average at best. It’s not until Monday the 14th that things turn good again. The morning is glassy, with a clean 4ft SSE groundswell running at 12 seconds. The combined energy is a healthy 369 (moderate energy), but that long period will make it a bit walled-up for the beach breaks – perfect for the point though. This is another really good window, with clean conditions.

The final few days, from the 16th onwards, the size is pretty small, often under 3ft. The best of the bunch looks like Friday the 18th morning, with a glassy 3ft SSE swell and a combined energy of 222 (moderate energy). It’s clean, and the point will be working nicely for the logs and mid-lengths, but don’t expect any barrels.

The Standout: If you’ve got the skills for bigger, powerful surf, the morning of Monday the 7th is clean and solid. For the best balance of quality and survival, the glassy morning of Monday the 14th is your best option – clean, good energy, and well-shaped for the point.
