The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's look at what's on the cards for the next couple of weeks.
We’ve got a bit of a slow start, but the real action builds towards the end of the month and into the first few days of September. The standout period is from Sunday the 30th of August right through to Tuesday the 1st of September. The water is sitting at a warm 82°F, which is right about where it should be for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The real highlight is Coragi, a very consistent reef break. It’s best on a swell from the SSE, and we get that. Sunday the 30th is looking like the pick of the bunch. Morning sees a clean 4ft SSW swell with a very long 15-second period, and a gentle offshore breeze from the NE. The energy is pumping, with a reading of 619. The afternoon bumps up to 4ft, still from the SSW, with a 16-second period and an energy reading of 784. That’s a proper groundswell and the offshore winds will have it glassy. This is a reef break, so that long-period energy will be holding up nicely. It’s a spot for advanced surfers, and with crowds possible, get in early.
Monday the 31st holds size at 4ft from the SSW but the wind goes a little cross-offshore, which is still clean but not quite as perfect. Tuesday the 1st of September drops back to 3ft but still has that clean offshore flow. The week leading up to it is a mixed bag. Wednesday the 26th has a solid 6ft to 7ft from the SSE, but it’s crossed up with a bit of chop and a risk of storms, so it’s less inviting. Thursday the 27th cleans up with offshore winds and a 4ft SSW swell, but the energy is moderate at 223. It’s surfable but not the main event.
After the first few days of September, the swell drops off significantly. From the 4th onwards, we’re looking at small, weak waves mostly under 3ft with very low energy. The conditions are often clean, but the swell just isn’t there. You’ll be scratching for a ride. The 7th and 8th of September have a glassy period with tiny 2ft to 3ft waves, but it’s not going to get your heart racing.
So, if you’re keen, circle the 30th of August through the 1st of September. That’s your window.
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.
