Coragi Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s cooking at Coragi.

We’ve got a bit of a slow start, but don’t write it off just yet. The first few days are pretty small and just okay, but there’s a promising run of cleaner, punchier swell building from the second week onward. The water's sitting at a warm 82°, pretty much dead average for this time of year, so no surprises there.

Tuesday morning kicks things off with a clean 3ft swell from the SSW, period around 13 seconds, and a moderate offshore breeze from the NE. The energy is moderate (401). It’s not huge, but the conditions are right for a reef setup like Coragi. The wind holds steady offshore through Tuesday afternoon, and the swell drops a touch to 3ft, still clean.

Wednesday and Thursday stay small, 2ft to 3ft, with offshore winds, but the swell period drops to 9-12 seconds. The energy drops to 137-192, so it’s surfable but nothing to get too excited about. Friday and Saturday see a bit more size, back to 3ft, but the wind goes cross-off or cross, and the quality drops. Sunday blows up a bit with stronger offshore winds, but the swell is only 3ft and energy is down to 101.

Then we hit a flat spot. Monday and Tuesday of the second week (7th and 8th of September) are poor – tiny 2ft to 2ft swell, glassy but weak, and the wind starts turning onshore. Not worth paddling out.

Wednesday the 9th and Thursday the 10th are a write-off too – small, messy, and inconsistent. A couple of 1ft to 2ft waves with periods up to 13 seconds, but the energy is low (99-130) and the wind is cross-on or glassy. Just a waiting game.

Now, here’s where it gets interesting. Friday the 11th of September morning, the swell jumps to 3ft from the SSE, period 12 seconds, and we’ve got a gentle offshore from the NE. The energy climbs to 272. By the afternoon, it’s 3ft, same direction, period 12 seconds, and the wind is still offshore. That’s a solid session. Saturday the 12th is the standout: 4ft swell in the morning, a bit short period at 8 seconds, but the afternoon gets 4ft with a 11-second period and energy up to 341 – the best combo of size and shape. Sunday the 13th holds steady at 3ft, 11 seconds, clean offshore winds.

Monday the 14th drops off again, but the real peak is Wednesday the 16th of September. Morning brings 4ft from the S, 12 seconds, and strong offshore winds. The energy is a massive 607 – that’s strong wave energy. This is the pick of the whole outlook. The afternoon goes a bit smaller at 2ft, but the period stretches to 15 seconds (very long period groundswell), and energy is still high at 396. For a reef like Coragi, that long period is a treat – it’ll draw that energy in and wrap beautifully. The wind stays offshore, so it’s going to be clean. This is for the advanced crew though; it’s a powerful wave.

The standout sessions are definitely the 11th and 12th, and especially the 16th. The crowds are “sometimes” at Coragi, so keep an eye out, but if you get it with a bit of company, it’s still worth it.

Rusty.
