The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk about Coragi. It’s a reef break, only for advanced surfers, and the water is about 80°F, which is pretty average for this time of year.
The first few days are flat out dead. Thursday 30th July has a tiny 1.0ft south swell, with a crazy 16-second period, but the wind is cross-offshore and the wave energy is low (57). Not worth paddling. Friday 31st July morning sees a little bump to 2ft, also south, and the wind goes glassy – that’s huge for getting clean faces. The energy is moderate (112), but it’s still ankle-snappers. Surfable if you’re desperate.
Saturday 1st August the wind goes onshore from the SW, and it stays that way through Sunday 2nd August, when the swell hits 4ft from the south. But the period drops to a short 8 seconds, and with onshore wind, it’s a windswell mess. The energy is moderate (240-259), but it’s blown out.
The first real window comes Thursday 13th August afternoon. The swell is 2ft from the south, period at 13 seconds, and the wind is glassy. The combined energy is 292 (moderate), and the surf is listed as “good.” That’s a session.
The true standout is Friday 14th August. Morning brings a 3ft south swell with an exceptionally long 18-second period. That’s serious groundswell. The energy is strong (621). Wind is glassy. The afternoon holds a 3ft SSW swell with a 16-second period, and the energy is even stronger (744). Both sessions are described as “very good.” For a reef like Coragi, that long period will draw out deep, clean lines. That’s the day to wait for. It's about a week and a half out, so keep an eye on it.
There’s a gap of roughly a week of poor to marginal surf before that Thursday 13th. Crowds are listed as “sometimes,” so you’ll have some company, but it won’t be a circus.
The swell sizes stay under 5ft, so it’s not big, but the reef makes it a serious wave. Not for beginners.

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.
