The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s cooking for the next couple of weeks.
We’ve only got one spot on the radar: Coragi. This is an advanced reef break, and it’s very consistent. The water temp is sitting at 82°F, which is pretty much bang on average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The week starts off a bit slow. We’ve got some small, clean peaks on Monday afternoon, with a 2ft swell from the SSE and a light offshore breeze – it’s rideable, but nothing to get too excited about. Tuesday and Wednesday keep that same small, clean vibe with swells barely hitting 2ft, and the wind is light offshore or light cross-offshore. The wave energy is building though, from 112 units up to 187, which is moderate but still very weak in terms of punch.
Thursday afternoon sees a jump in size to 5ft from the SSE, but the period is a short, choppy 6 seconds, and the wind is cross-off from the E, making it a bit messy. Still, the energy jumps to 298 units. Friday stays in the marginal zone with a cross-on wind, not ideal.
The real turn starts on Saturday the 12th. That morning we get a clean 3ft SSE swell with a moderate offshore wind, and by the afternoon the forecast says “good surf conditions” – the energy is up to 208 units. Sunday the 13th keeps that good run going with gentle offshore winds and 3ft waves from the SSE, energy climbing to 243 units.
Monday the 14th and Tuesday the 15th are where things get interesting. Monday afternoon brings a 2ft S swell with a very long 18-second period, and energy at 313 units. This is a classic groundswell, perfect for a reef like this. Tuesday is even better: a 3ft S swell with a 15-second period, and the energy jumps to 400 – that’s solid, moderate wave energy. The wind is cross-off, keeping it clean.
The standout window is without a doubt the weekend of the 19th and 20th of September. Saturday morning the 19th is looking magical: 3ft of SSW swell, a 14-second period, and a near-slick offshore breeze from the NE. The energy is a powerful 646 units, and the forecast says “very good surf conditions.” Sunday the 20th is almost a carbon copy: 4ft S swell, 14-second period, clean cross-off wind, and energy at 567 units. This is the best on offer – smaller but perfectly shaped, clean, and punchy for an advanced reef.
After that, the energy drops back into the 200-400 range for the rest of the period, with clean conditions and manageable 2ft to 3ft waves. It’s still good, but the 19th and 20th are the real jewels.
Remember, this is a consistent spot, so even the quieter days are worth a paddle if you’re itching. The crowds are listed as “sometimes,” so you might share it, but it’s not a circus.
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.
