Coragi Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, let’s break this down. Rusty here, looking at the next 16 days.

Honestly, it’s a pretty flat spell. There’s a big gap of about 10 days with hardly any surf worth talking about. The only real standout is a window on the afternoon of Friday the 17th at Coragi. That’s when the south swell picks up to 5ft with a 8-second period, and the combined energy hits 354 (moderate energy). The wind is a gentle offshore from the NNE, so it’ll be clean. That’s the pick of the bunch, but the short period means the waves will be a bit soft and lumpy. With the swell over 5ft, it’s a bit much for beginners, but it’s not a beast.

The rest of the forecast is pretty ordinary. Most days are 1ft to 3ft of south swell, with periods mostly between 10 and 12 seconds, so not a lot of power. The combined energy stays in the low to mid 100s, which is weak. The wind is offshore a lot of the time, which is good, but the swell just isn’t there. For example, Thursday morning the 16th and Friday morning the 17th have clean offshore winds, but the waves are tiny at 1ft.

Around the 19th and 20th, the south swell holds at 2ft to 3ft, but the wind gets stronger on the 20th, up to 16 mph from the north, making it messy. The 23rd and 24th have a bit more consistent 3ft south swell with moderate offshore winds, so it’s rideable but nothing special.

The very end of the run, on the 30th, shows a spike in combined energy to 242 with a south-southwest swell of 1ft and a long 16-second period, but again, it’s tiny. That long period will make the waves slow and fat, better for a log or a longboard, if anything.

The water temperature is about average for the time of year, so no surprises.

So, bottom line: the only one I’d paddle out for is the Friday afternoon session on the 17th. It’s not a classic, but it’s the best of a quiet lot. The rest is a waiting game.
