Table - best surf conditions forecast for Colas (Cokes) over the next 16 days.
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s coming.
Quiet start, but don’t bail. The surf builds into a solid run of clean waves through the first week and into the second. The real standout lands in the middle of next week.
We’re talking Colas (Cokes) – a reef break that breaks fairly often. Water temp is pretty normal for this time of year. First real surf shows up on Thursday, July 9th with a small 3ft S swell, 14-second period – that’s long-period groundswell. Wind is cross-offshore in the morning, then fully offshore in the afternoon. Clean, but small. Wave energy is moderate (373–407). Just a teaser.
Friday, July 10th gets better. Swell hits 3ft from the SSW, 14-second period, with a gentle offshore wind NW 15 km/h. Clean all day. Energy is moderate (444). The afternoon drops to 2ft but the period stretches to 15 seconds – more push. The reef will love that.
Saturday and Sunday, July 11th–12th keep it going: 2ft to 3ft S swell, periods 13 to 12 seconds, offshore winds. Energy in the 230–353 range. Clean, glassy mornings. Not big, but fun.
Monday July 13th through Tuesday July 14th – this is the sweet spot. Monday morning swell hits 4ft from the S, 12-second period, energy jumps to 587–594 (moderate to strong). Clean cross-offshore wind. Tuesday is the best: 4ft SSE swell, 11-second period, and fully offshore wind from the WNW at 15 km/h. Energy tops 654. The reef will be pumping out clean, shaped waves. Crowds are often here, so expect company.
Wednesday July 15th holds strong with 4ft SSE swell, 15-second period in the afternoon, cross-offshore winds. Energy 564–688. Clean and powerful. Not for beginners.
Thursday July 16th is a glassy gem – 3ft SSW swell, 14-second period, wind drops to 5 km/h from the WSW. Energy 559–622. If you can get out, it’s a stunner.
From Friday July 17th onward, the surf fades. Swell drops to 3ft–3ft, periods shorten, wind turns more cross-shore. Energy falls to 322–411. Still surfable but not as good. By Sunday July 19th it’s messy, and Monday July 20th brings cross-shore chop. A gap of poor to marginal conditions runs through Wednesday July 22nd, though a few clean windows pop up. After that, swell shrinks and energy drops into the 179–232 range through July 24th – small, weak, not worth it.
Best calls: Tuesday July 14th and Thursday July 16th. Clean, decent size, long-period groundswell, and offshore or glassy wind. The reef will handle the direction well. Don’t sleep on it.
Rusty.

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