The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Let’s get straight to it – this 16-day stretch for Coastguard Beach is looking mostly flat. There’s a long dry spell of tiny, weak surf ahead, so don’t expect much action.
Starting Thursday 10 September: clean cross-off wind from the WSW at 16 mph, but the swell is a measly 0.3ft out of the E at 10 seconds. Energy is basically nil (4). Friday 11 September: 1ft S swell Friday morning, short period of 7 seconds, cross-off wind – still flat. Saturday 12 September brings glassy conditions in the morning, 0.7ft SSE swell at 6 seconds – you’re floating, not surfing.
Sunday 13 September sees a little lift: 3ft S swell (27 energy) but onshore SE wind at 16 mph makes it choppy. Monday 14 and Tuesday 15 stay tiny, with cross and cross-on winds. Water temp is 66°, about average for this time of year.
There’s a gap of almost no decent surf until Wednesday 24 September. That morning, we finally see something: 4ft SE swell at 8 seconds, energy 239, and clean NNW wind at 13 mph. It’s borderline, but the best so far. The afternoon gets even better: 5ft SE swell at 8 seconds, offshore WNW wind at 6 mph, energy jumps to 304. This is the standout. Clean, with some push – perfect for those ready to grab a few.
Friday 25 September returns to small, onshore slop. Bottom line: mostly flat, with one promising window on the 24th. If you’re into kites, those windy, choppy afternoons might work, but for paddle surfing, mark that Thursday.
Rusty out.

Information about the Coastguard Beach Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Coastguard Beach provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Coastguard Beach can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Coastguard Beach 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 (Coastguard Beach) 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 Coastguard Beach 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.
