Alright, let’s break it down, mate. For Coombesgate Beach, it’s a pretty quiet stretch coming up.

The first week and a half is basically flat. From Monday the 13th right through to Thursday the 23rd, swell heights are barely 0.3ft to 1ft, with combined energy readings in the weak range — like 12 to 34. The water is 64°F, which is about 4°F warmer than normal, so that’s a plus if you’re just floating.

The first real chance of anything is the morning of Friday the 24th. We get a jump to 4ft from the west, but with a short period of 6 seconds and energy of 123 (moderate). The wind is onshore from the WNW at 6 mph, and the waves are still rated “poor surf conditions.” Not really worth getting excited about.

The best of the bunch is Saturday the 25th. Morning shows 3ft from the west, period 7 seconds, energy 79 (weak), with a clean cross-off wind from the ENE at 9 mph. The afternoon is similar, 3ft and 8 seconds. The comment says “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions.” That’s your only real window. If you’re keen, that’s the time to go.

Sunday the 26th has strong offshore winds — 31 mph in the morning, 28 mph in the afternoon — making paddling a real struggle, and the swell is tiny again. The rest of the run into the 28th is more cross-on wind and weak, short-period waves.

So, bottom line: no standout swell. Saturday the 25th is the only half-decent option, but it’s nothing special. Coombesgate Beach is a beginner-friendly spot, but with this forecast, it’s more for a walk on the sand than a surf.

Information about the Coombesgate Beach Surf forecast

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