The Lowdown
Alright, let’s take a look at what’s coming down the line.
The next week is pretty lean, to be honest. Most days are small, weak, or messy. The real standout is way out in the future, around the 9th and 10th of August at Coragi (a reef break for advanced surfers). That’s the one to get excited about.
For the rest of this week, it’s a struggle. Sunday the 26th sees a tiny 3ft SSE swell with a short 8-second period and a moderate offshore breeze. The swell energy is weak (90), so it’s rideable but nothing special. Monday the 27th has a slight bump to 3ft, but the wind goes cross-off and then cross, making it choppy. Tuesday the 28th is the best of the first week: a 3ft SW swell under a light offshore breeze, with moderate energy (204). It’s clean, but still small and short-period.
From Wednesday the 29th through the weekend of the 1st and 2nd of August, it’s mostly tiny waves under 2ft, with light winds at times but very little push. The weekend has onshore and cross-onshore breezes – not worth paddling out.
The second week starts with a few glassy mornings and small pulses, but nothing gets going until the 9th of August. On Sunday morning the 9th, a 3ft S swell arrives with a 14-second period – that’s a proper long-period groundswell. The wind is offshore from the NNE, light breeze, and the combined energy is 413 (moderate-strong). That’s a clean, solid session. By Sunday afternoon, the energy jumps to 573, still clean with offshore winds. The long period means the waves will have good shape and power, and at a reef like Coragi, that’s a plus.
Then Monday the 10th of August is the real standout. A 5ft S swell, 15-second period, with a cross-offshore breeze from the north. The combined energy is a massive 1012 (very strong) – this is excellent surf for experienced surfers. The swell direction from the SSE lines up perfectly with Coragi’s exposure, and those long-period lines will set up beautifully on the reef. It’s too big for beginners, but for the advanced crew, this is the day to clear your schedule.
So, a long wait, but the 9th and especially the 10th of August look like they’ll fire. Keep an eye on it, but it’s a ways out.

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.
