Coragi Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what Coragi has in store for us over the next couple of weeks.

It’s a bit of a slow start, to be honest. The first few days are just a tease with small, weak swell. But don’t let that early week put you off, because we’ve got a proper build coming. The waiting game will be worth it.

We’ll kick things off from Thursday the 27th of August. The waves are small, around 2ft from the SSE with a short 8 second period. The combined energy is weak (162), so there’s not much push. The wind’s offshore from the NNE at 16 mph, which keeps it clean, but honestly, it’s pretty ordinary. Not worth getting wet for.

Friday the 28th is more of the same, maybe even smaller. The morning drops to 2ft from the SSE, combined energy down to just 84. The afternoon sees a jump in period to 16 seconds bringing the energy up to 199, but the swell height is still only 2ft, so it’s a long-period groundswell with no real height. It’ll be breaking straight and tough to catch. Keep the board in the car.

Now, hold onto your leashes, because things start to get interesting over the weekend.

Saturday the 29th of August is where we start to see some life. The morning has 3ft of swell from the SSW at 15 seconds. The combined energy jumps to 458, which is moderate to strong. The wind is light offshore from the NE at 6 mph. This is clean, and the swell is starting to find its rhythm. This is a solid session for the advanced crew.

Sunday the 30th of August is the absolute standout of the entire forecast. We’re looking at 4ft from the SSW with a 15 second period in the morning, the combined energy is 726. By the afternoon, it’s still 4ft but the period stretches to 16 seconds with an energy reading of 807. The wind is gentle offshore from the NE and NNE. This is as good as it gets. The water temperature is sitting at a warm 82°, which is about average for this time of year. This is the day to clear your schedule. Coragi is an advanced-level reef break, and this is when it’ll be doing what it does best.

Monday the 31st holds steady with 4ft from the SSW and a 14 second period, energy around 590. Offshore winds from the NNE at 12 mph keep it clean. Really good quality.

The first week of September rolls in with solid but slightly smaller surf. Tuesday the 1st has 3ft from the SSW at 13 seconds with moderate offshore wind. Wednesday the 2nd is similar, 3ft from the south. The energy is dropping through the week, but it’s all clean and ridable.

We hit a bit of a lull from Thursday the 3rd of September through to Tuesday the 9th. The swell gets smaller, the periods drop back to the 8-10 second range, and the energy readings are consistently below 200. There’s a poor stretch in there (Friday the 4th to the 6th) with weak SSE swells. Nothing to get excited about.

Now, looking further ahead, there’s another flicker of hope. Thursday the 10th of September sees the afternoon wake up. We get 4ft from the SSE, a 12-second period, and a combined energy of 528. The wind is light and cross-offshore from the east. That’s a promising session, but it’s a long way out, so keep an eye on it.

Friday the 11th of September also has some fun waves on offer. The morning has 3ft from the SE at 13 seconds with moderate offshore NNE wind. The afternoon bumps the energy up to 548 with a 12-second period from the SE. Again, promising but far out.

So, to wrap it up: the real standout is Sunday the 30th of August. That’s your best bet. The weekend of the 29th and 31st is also very strong. The second week looks more hit-and-miss until that potential pulse around the 10th and 11th. Get out there for that Sunday session.

Rusty.
