Coragi Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, surfers, Rusty here. We’ve got a long-range look at the forecast for a spot that’s going to ask for some patience. The next 16 days are a bit of a mixed bag, with plenty of small, ordinary conditions, and a few fleeting moments that could be worth the paddle.

Right off the bat, we’ve got a stretch of nothing special. The first few days are a write-off, with poor surf conditions and scores that don't get the heart racing. Thursday the 30th of July kicks things off with a tiny 1.0ft SSE groundswell, but a cross-off wind from the NNW is the only thing keeping it from being a total mess. The water temperature is a warm 80°, which is spot on for this time of year.

The real problem is the size. For the first week, we’re stuck in the 1.0ft to 2ft range, with the swell energy sitting in the low to moderate bracket (38 to 279). The wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, making it choppy and messy. The one exception is Monday morning, the 3rd of August. We get a tiny 2ft bump from the SSW, but it’s glassy. Completely flat surface. For a reef break like Coragi, that’s a rare moment of calm. The combined energy is a weak 108, but the clean surface is a major positive. It’s surfable, but just barely.

The second week starts to look a little more promising, but it’s still not an epic run. From the 6th of August, we start seeing a few more mornings with glassy conditions and some cross-off winds. On Thursday the 6th of August, we have a clean 3ft SSE swell in the afternoon, with a moderate energy of 187. It’s not a standout, but it’s a step up. The best of the bunch, and the one I’d be watching, is Monday the 10th of August. A solid, clean 3ft SSE swell arrives with a gentle offshore from the N. The energy is moderate (145), and the offshore wind will groom it nicely. That’s the pick of the whole forecast. It’s still on the small side, but it will be clean and rideable. The crowds at Coragi can be a problem at times, so keep that in mind.

Tuesday the 11th of August has a 1ft S swell with a very long 14-second period, which is a classic groundswell. That kind of period can make it break a bit too straight, but on a reef setup, it could offer some long, drawn-out lines. It’s a promising but less certain long-range option.

All in all, we’re looking at a lot of small, ordinary days. The best of them is that Monday the 10th of August morning with the offshore wind. Get out there early, keep your expectations in check, and you’ll likely find a few fun ones.

Rusty.
