The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get into it. The surf’s been a bit quiet to start, but there’s plenty to work with if you’re patient. The first few days are pretty small and mostly just ordinary, but things start to build and clean up as we head through the week.
We start off on Wednesday the 9th with some lazy 1.6ft to 2ft swell rolling in from the south-southwest at 12 seconds. It’s surfable, but the conditions are nothing to write home about—cross-offshore breezes and a risk of storms in the afternoon. The energy is weak at 121, so you’re not going to get much push. It’s more of a “get wet if you have to” kind of day.
Thursday the 10th is still small, but the morning has a better vibe with a light offshore NE wind and some clean 1.6ft swell. The energy is climbing a little to 155. It’s still knee-high stuff, but at least it’s clean. The afternoon turns to trash with a storm risk and onshore bumps.
Friday the 11th is where the first real spark shows up. The morning is okay at 2.3ft, but the afternoon is the pick of the day. Swell bumps to 3ft from the SSE at 11 seconds, and with a light cross-offshore ENE breeze, the conditions turn clean. Energy is up to 229, and it starts to feel like a proper surf.
Saturday the 12th builds on that. The swell holds around 3ft, but the period stays at 11 seconds and we get a proper offshore NNE wind all day. Both the morning and afternoon sessions look good, with energy climbing to 249. This is where it starts to get fun.
Sunday the 13th keeps the run going. Similar 2.6ft SSE swell with a consistent 11-second period, and a gentle offshore NNE wind keeps it clean all day. Energy peaks at 272 in the morning, which is the strongest we’ve seen so far. The consistency is really starting to show.
Monday the 14th is still clean but the swell drops a bit to 2.3ft in the morning. The afternoon is interesting—a jump in period to 18 seconds and energy up to 329. It’s still small, but that long-period groundswell will have some push to it. Those long lines might be a bit straight for the beach breaks, but at a reef like Coragi, it’ll wall up nicely.
Tuesday the 15th is where we get our first standout. The morning has 2.6ft of S swell at 15 seconds, but the energy is a solid 425. The wind is a moderate offshore NE, and the conditions are clean. This is proper reef-surf energy. The afternoon pushes that swell to 3ft from the SSW at 14 seconds with 415 energy. This is the best run of the forecast so far.
Wednesday the 16th keeps the quality high. The morning brings 3.3ft from the south at 13 seconds, with a moderate offshore NNE wind. Energy is 376. That’s going to be some proper, head-high-plus overhead waves breaking on the reef, with some push behind them. The afternoon backs off a touch to 2.3ft, but it’s still clean and fun.
Thursday the 17th is all about the morning. The wind drops to glassy, zero wind from the WNW, and there’s still 2.6ft of S swell at 12 seconds. Energy is 208. It doesn’t get much cleaner than that. The afternoon fades fast, dropping to 2ft with weak 74 energy, so get out early.
Friday the 18th is a bit of a scratch. The morning has some onshore SW wind and weak 90 energy, so it’s not looking like much. The afternoon is better—a cross-offshore NW breeze and 2.3ft at 10 seconds—but it’s still only 112 energy

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.
