The Lowdown
Alright, surfers, Rusty here. We’ve got a long-range look at the forecast for a spot that’s going to ask for some patience. The next 16 days are a bit of a mixed bag, with plenty of small, ordinary conditions, and a few fleeting moments that could be worth the paddle.
Right off the bat, we’ve got a stretch of nothing special. The first few days are a write-off, with poor surf conditions and scores that don't get the heart racing. Thursday the 30th of July kicks things off with a tiny 1.0ft SSE groundswell, but a cross-off wind from the NNW is the only thing keeping it from being a total mess. The water temperature is a warm 80°, which is spot on for this time of year.
The real problem is the size. For the first week, we’re stuck in the 1.0ft to 2ft range, with the swell energy sitting in the low to moderate bracket (38 to 279). The wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, making it choppy and messy. The one exception is Monday morning, the 3rd of August. We get a tiny 2ft bump from the SSW, but it’s glassy. Completely flat surface. For a reef break like Coragi, that’s a rare moment of calm. The combined energy is a weak 108, but the clean surface is a major positive. It’s surfable, but just barely.
The second week starts to look a little more promising, but it’s still not an epic run. From the 6th of August, we start seeing a few more mornings with glassy conditions and some cross-off winds. On Thursday the 6th of August, we have a clean 3ft SSE swell in the afternoon, with a moderate energy of 187. It’s not a standout, but it’s a step up. The best of the bunch, and the one I’d be watching, is Monday the 10th of August. A solid, clean 3ft SSE swell arrives with a gentle offshore from the N. The energy is moderate (145), and the offshore wind will groom it nicely. That’s the pick of the whole forecast. It’s still on the small side, but it will be clean and rideable. The crowds at Coragi can be a problem at times, so keep that in mind.
Tuesday the 11th of August has a 1ft S swell with a very long 14-second period, which is a classic groundswell. That kind of period can make it break a bit too straight, but on a reef setup, it could offer some long, drawn-out lines. It’s a promising but less certain long-range option.
All in all, we’re looking at a lot of small, ordinary days. The best of them is that Monday the 10th of August morning with the offshore wind. Get out there early, keep your expectations in check, and you’ll likely find a few fun ones.
Rusty.

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