G’day, Rusty here.
Alright, let’s size up what’s coming for Angourie Point. This is a classic point break that loves an east-northeast swell, but we’ve got a bit of a slow start before the real juice shows up. Water temp is 70°F – pretty average for this time of year, nothing wild.
The first few days are a washout. Sunday the 5th is tiny, with a 2ft easterly swell and messy cross-off wind. Not worth suiting up. Monday the 6th through to Thursday the 10th sees a big jump in size, with swell running 8ft to 12ft, but it’s all short-period, wind-affected slop – mostly cross-off breezes and rain showers, and the conditions are marginal at best. The energy cranks up but the quality ain’t there. This stretch is for the die-hards only.
Now, Friday the 10th morning is where things start to clean up. We get a clean 6ft SE swell with a gentle offshore breeze from the SSW – that’s proper clean conditions at the Point. Combined energy is a solid 709 (moderate), and for a point break, that’s a nice, manageable size. Not the standout of the run, but a decent session.
The real beast – the one you mark on the calendar – is Thursday the 16th through to Saturday the 18th. The swell jumps to 13ft and bigger, coming from the SSE with a solid 10- to 14-second period. That’s groundswell energy, and it’s packing serious weight. The combined energy readings are massive – 2,712 on Thursday morning, climbing all the way to 12,778 on Saturday morning. That’s extreme energy. These are expert-only waves, well over 8ft, so if you’re not dialed in, stay on the beach. But for those who know the Point, this is absolutely going off. The best of the bunch is Saturday the 18th morning – 15ft SSE swell, 13-second period, light WNW cross-off breeze, and the energy is maxed out. This is exceptional, clean, powerful surf. Crowds are always a thing at Angourie, and on a day like that, the pack will be thick.
There’s a drop-off after Sunday the 19th as the swell fades to 5ft and smaller, with weak energy trailing into Monday the 20th. Nothing to chase there.
So bottom line: the first week is mostly rubbish, Friday the 10th gives you a tidy little window, but the standout is hands-down Saturday the 18th – big, clean, and thumping. Expert territory, but a dream day if you’re ready for it.
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.
