Table - best surf conditions forecast for Coney Beach over the next 16 days.
Alright, let's talk about Coney Beach. This spot is a sheltered beginner break, but the forecast over the next couple of weeks is mostly a struggle. The water temperature is sitting at 65.8°F right now, which is a whopping 6.5°F warmer than normal – that's some serious tropical anomaly for these parts.
From Sunday 12 July through to Wednesday 22 July, it's pretty much flat or tiny with messy cross-shore winds. The swell barely gets above 1.3ft to 2.0ft, period is short, and the combined energy never breaks 30 – nothing to ride. There's a glimmer on Thursday 23 July morning: a 3.3ft swell from the west, clean with light cross-off wind, but the energy is only 150 and conditions are still just surfable – nothing special. After that, it's back to lumpy chop until Saturday 26 July, where the swell bumps to 3.6ft–3.9ft but still poor conditions.
The real standout is on Monday 27 July morning. We've got a 6.9ft groundswell from the WSW – that's exactly the direction this break likes – and it's glassy. The combined energy is a solid 755, so there's plenty of push. The period is a moderate 9 seconds, enough to shape

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