The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again, let's talk feet and Fahrenheit for those who think in old school.
For the first half of the period, we've got a fun run of waves. The pick of the bunch is from Monday the 18th through Wednesday the 20th. Swell comes up to around 4 feet, with that SSW direction. The wind is offshore, which is what we want to see, keeping the surface smooth and glassy. The water is warm, about 81°, which is pretty much spot-on for this time of year.
Coragi will be breaking proper. It’s a shallow reef, so it's for the experienced crew only. With a 15-second period on the swell, you'll be getting some proper groundswell lines, and with the SSW direction, it'll be lining up just right. There might be a handful of others out, but it's not going to be a zoo.
The surf holds through the 21st with clean conditions, though it’s a notch smaller at 3–4 feet. Then, into the weekend of the 23rd and 24th, it drops off to about waist to chest high. Still clean, but the energy fades.
The new week starts off slow, with small, short-period waves on the 25th and 26th. There's a slight pickup late on the 26th when the wind goes light, but it’s nothing special. The end of the run, the 28th through the 30th, shows a push of smaller, longer-period swell in the 2-3 feet range. It might offer a few morning waves before the wind picks up, but don't plan your life around it yet. It's looking like a nice end to the period but far less certain than that mid-week run.
Stay stoked, and I'll see you out there.

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.
