Coragi Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's get into it for the Coragi region. We've got a bit of a slow start, but a solid run of clean waves on the horizon. The water’s sitting around 82° right now, which is just about normal for this time of year.

The first few days are pretty average, with some small, weak swell. Saturday the 22nd and Sunday the 23rd offer knee-to-waist high waves around 3ft from the S/SW, with light offshore winds keeping things tidy. The energy is low, so it's more about getting wet than getting barreled. Monday the 24th and Tuesday the 25th see the swell period drop off, making for weak, crumbly waves. Not really worth the paddle.

Now, Wednesday the 26th is where it picks up. The swell jumps to a solid 6ft from the SSE, with a moderate period and combined energy roaring up. This is a solid step up in size and power, but the morning winds are cross-offshore, so expect some texture on the face. It's still surfable, but the afternoon shifts to a cross-shore breeze, making it a bit trickier.

Thursday the 27th and Friday the 28th drop back down to small, weak surf, but then we get to the real standout.

The period from Saturday the 29th of August right through to Wednesday the 3rd of September is the gold run. The star of the show is the Saturday afternoon session on the 29th. The swell is a clean 3-4ft from the SSW, but the period stretches out to a long 17 seconds, and the combined energy is pumping. That’s a quality groundswell with some serious grunt. The wind is light and cross-offshore, so expect clean, lined-up waves at Coragi. This is the best the forecast has to offer – long-period energy, light wind, and just a fun size.

Sunday the 30th holds similar quality with a 4ft+ SSW swell, long period, and even more energy. Winds stay light and offshore. These two days are the clear winners for the whole outlook.

Monday the 31st and Tuesday the 1st of September still offer good, clean surf with offshore winds, but the swell size and energy start to slowly drop. The glassy conditions on Wednesday the 2nd of September afternoon, with waist-high S swell, look real nice for a small-wave session.

After that, the last few days of the forecast, into the first week of September, look pretty quiet with small, weak swell and building winds. The run of good waves will be over.

Bottom line: forget the early week doldrums. The standout is the Saturday 29th and Sunday 30th of August for the best combination of clean, long-period groundswell and light winds. Get on it.

Rusty.
