The Lowdown
Alright, let's get into it. This is Rusty, lookin' at the charts for the next couple of weeks.
First up, Angourie Point. Gotta be honest, it's a slow start. We've got a bit of a gap at the beginning here. The surfable stuff doesn't really show up until Wednesday the 19th, and even then, don't get your hopes up too high for the first week.
The real story is the wait for something special. There's a patch of flat to weak little waves through the 21st, 22nd, and 23rd. Not worth paddling out for. We're talking barely knee-high junk. Things tease a bit on the 25th with a glassy afternoon, but it's just small.
Then, hold onto your boards, because it looks like the surf gods are saving it all for the end of the run. The standout is going to be Sunday the 30th and Monday the 31st of August. Sunday afternoon, a solid 8ft swell from the SSE, clean with a very long period (18 seconds) and strong wave energy (3949). That's a serious groundswell. It's a big one, so that's for the experienced crew only at this point. Monday morning cleans up with a 6ft SSE swell, still a long 13-second period, and excellent conditions. The energy is still strong (1071) and the wind is light offshore. That Monday morning session is the one to circle on the calendar.
The water temp is sitting at 68°F, which is right on the money for this time of year, nothing unusual there.
There are a few other little windows. Thursday the 20th morning looks glassy with a bit (5ft) of swell, but it's a short period (8 seconds). And very late in the run, Tuesday the 1st of September has a clean 4ft SSE groundswell in the morning with an 11-second period. It's a decent little backup option if the big Sunday-Monday window is too much.
Overall, the first week is a write-off for anything worthwhile. The big energy arrives on the 30th and 31st. Don't sleep on that Monday the 31st morning.
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.
