The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Let’s have a good look at what’s coming down the line for Angourie Point.
We’ve got a bit of a quiet start, but don’t write it off just yet. The first few days are pretty ordinary, with small, junky windswell and messy winds making it a bit of a write-off for a decent paddle. There’s a gap of really nothing worth paddling out for from Saturday the 15th though to Tuesday the 18th.
The real spark in the outlook comes on Thursday the 20th. The morning is where it’s at: a light 4ft swell from the SE, but the wind drops out – glassy conditions – and the water is sitting at 68°. That’s pretty much bang on average for this time of year, so nothing weird going on there. The combined energy is moderate (202). For a point break like this, that clean, lined-up energy is going to make for some proper, long rides. If you’ve got a board with a bit of rail, this is the session to aim for.
Moving into the next week, there’s another standout later on. Saturday the 29th morning has a clean 3ft swell from the ESE with light offshore-ish cross-off wind, and the energy jumps up to a solid 362. That’s a lot of push for the size. Into the afternoon, it goes glassy with a 4ft swell from the ESE, energy hitting 434, and the wind is just a whisper. This is top-tier stuff for Angourie – clean, punchy, and the point will be running smooth. Sunday the 30th morning is also clean with 4ft from the ESE and plenty of energy (347), so the weekend shapes up nicely.
Between those two windows, there’s some bumpy days with onshore and cross-shore winds and rain, so be patient. The Wednesday the 26th and Thursday the 27th are looking pretty grim with choppy conditions and onshore slop.
Overall, don’t stress about the quiet start. The swell direction is right in the sweet spot for the point, and when the wind plays ball, Angourie is a beauty. Get out there on Thursday the 20th morning, and then lock in that Saturday the 29th and Sunday the 30th for some real highlights. Crowds are always a possibility here, so get in early.
Stay stoked,
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.
