Coragi Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Oi, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming up for Coragi.

Right now, the surf is small but clean. The pick of the early window is Thursday afternoon, the 23rd of July. Swell is a modest 3 ft from the south, with a period of 10 seconds, and the wind is a steady offshore from the north-northeast at 12 mph. That’s moderate offshore and clean, with moderate wave energy (206). The water is 79°, which is normal for this time of year. It’s not big, but it’s tidy and rideable.

Friday the 24th sees a slight drop in swell to 2 ft, still from the south. The morning is cross-offshore, but the afternoon turns offshore again, light breeze at 6 mph. Clean enough for a longboard, but nothing to get excited about. Saturday the 25th offers similar conditions: 2 ft to 3 ft, south and south-southeast swell, with gentle to moderate offshore winds. The morning has a bit of cloud, but the wind is clean.

Sunday the 26th keeps the same small swell, 3 ft, with a light offshore in the morning. By the afternoon, the wind is still offshore but the period drops to 8 seconds. It’s surfable, but ordinary. The energy dips to 90, so it’s weak.

Monday the 27th is a mixed bag. The morning is cross-offshore and the swell is only 2 ft; the afternoon perks up a bit to 3 ft south swell, but it’s still cross-off. Tuesday the 28th holds at 3 ft in the morning, but the period is a short 7 seconds, so it’s sloppy. The afternoon goes offshore again, but the swell is back to 3 ft.

Then from Wednesday the 29th through to Thursday the 30th, the surf really drops off. Swell heights fall to 1.0 ft to 2 ft, with strong offshore winds – 12 to 19 mph. The period on the 30th jumps to 16 seconds, but with only 1.0 ft, that long-period groundswell is just a whisper. The energy is down to 39 to 57. It’s poor.

Friday the 31st shows a little life: 2 ft to 2 ft from the south, with a long 13-second period. The wind is offshore or glassy, and the energy climbs to 140. It’s surfable, but still small.

Now, the standout of the whole forecast falls on Saturday the 1st of August. The afternoon session is the best on offer. The swell is 2 ft from the south, 12-second period, with glassy conditions from the west-northwest at just 3 mph. That’s 205 of moderate energy. It’s clean, glassy, and the direction suits the break. This is the one to circle.

Sunday the 2nd of August keeps it small and clean, with glassy conditions in the morning. The swell is 2 ft to 2 ft, energy around 144 to 173. The first week of August sees a few more glassy days, especially the 5th and 6th, with 3 ft to 4 ft swell from the south-southeast, zero wind, and glassy conditions. The energy is moderate (137 to 178). For a reef break like Coragi, those long-period swells (12 seconds) are going to wrap in nicely, but the size is small, so it’s more for the longboard or a fun mid-length.

The long-range stuff into the second week – the 4th through the 7th of August – is a mix of small, clean conditions. Nothing gets over 4 ft, and most days have glassy or light offshore winds. It’s consistent, but not powerful. The 7th of August Friday morning has a 12-second period swell at 1 ft, 142 energy, and a gentle offshore – it’s clean but tiny.

Overall, the best bet is Saturday the 1st of August afternoon – glassy, clean, 2 ft south swell, and the right wind. The rest of the window is a longboarder’s paradise with small, clean waves. Nothing too heavy, but plenty of fun if you’ve got the right board.

Rusty.
