The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking for the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, it’s a slow start. We’ve got a bit of a wait on our hands before anything really gets going. The first week is pretty flat and disappointing, with only small, weak surf and not much to get excited about. There’s a long stretch of days where you’re better off leaving the board in the car. Things finally start to turn around towards the end of the month, and that’s where the real action is.
The standout window kicks off on Sunday the 30th of August. Angourie Point is the place to be. We’ve got a solid 7ft swell rolling in from the SSE, and the wind is light offshore from the WSW in the morning. That’s going to produce some clean, lined-up waves. The combined swell energy is pumping at 749 (moderate to strong energy), so there’s plenty of push. This is a point break that loves a good groundswell, and with a period of 9 seconds, it’ll have some decent shape. Expect it to be a bit of a magnet for the crew, but the quality will be worth it. Water temp is sitting at 68°F, which is pretty much bang on average for this time of year.
Monday the 31st of August sees the swell bump up further to 8ft, with a very long period of 13 seconds from the SSE. That’s a serious groundswell with massive energy (2343). This is expert territory—too big and powerful for most. It’s also going to have a strong cross-off wind, but with rain showers and that much energy, it’s going to be a wild, heavy day. Only for the very experienced. The period is so long that at a point break like Angourie, it should hold up well, but don’t expect it to be user-friendly.
Into the first day of September, Tuesday morning, the swell drops back to a more manageable 6ft from the SSE, period at 11 seconds. The wind is light offshore from the south, and the energy is still solid at 837. This is another really good session. Clean, powerful waves with good shape. A proper morning session.
After that, the surf fades quickly into smaller, less consistent stuff, with winds turning more onshore or cross-shore. The second week is a bit of a write-off with small, ordinary waves and poor conditions. Nothing worth chasing.
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.
