The Lowdown
Right then, let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Coombesgate Beach over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a pretty lean run for a while. The first week is basically a write-off for any kind of proper surf. We’re looking at a big gap with nothing worth paddling out for from Thursday morning, August 6th, all the way through to the morning of Thursday, August 13th. That’s a solid week of flat, weak, or blown-out conditions.
The only real glimmer of hope in the entire forecast lands on Friday morning, August 14th. It’s not going to be a classic, but after all that nothing, it’s the standout. The swell is a tiny 3 ft out of the west, with a middling period of 9 seconds. The real saviour here is the wind: a glassy offshore from the northwest. It’ll be clean, and the combined swell energy is weak (99). For a beach and reef setup, the glassy conditions will make it look better than the numbers suggest. Expect it to be pretty ordinary otherwise, but at least you won’t be fighting the wind.
The rest of the forecast period after that? More of the same – small, weak, or onshore. Nothing else is worth chasing. For an area like this, a blank run like this isn’t that unusual.

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.
