The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s happening at Coragi.
This is a reef break that needs an advanced crew, and it’s very consistent. The swell direction is a solid SSE, which is exactly what this spot likes to see. Water temp is about average for this time of year, so nothing wild there.
The stretch kicks off Monday, July 20th, with a clean 3ft S swell rolling in at a nice 12-second period. That’s a groundswell with some decent energy (232) and the wind is a gentle offshore from the NNE. It’s going to be glassy and clean. This is the pick of the whole run – the conditions are dialed in for a proper session. The same holds through the afternoon.
Tuesday the 21st stays clean with that same 3ft S swell, though the wind goes cross-offshore from the ENE. Still good, still surfable, but that Monday morning window is the real standout.
We get a bit of a dip Wednesday and Thursday, but the wind stays favorable. Thursday morning, July 23rd, sees a moderate offshore breeze from the N, cleaning up the 3ft S swell (10-second period). It’s not as punchy as Monday, but it’s still a fun wave.
Friday the 24th through Sunday the 26th sees the swell drop and the period shorten. The energy weakens (down to 89 by Saturday afternoon), and the waves become more ordinary. Still rideable, but nothing to drop everything for.
Then things go quiet. From Monday, July 27th, through to the end of the month, the surf gets pretty poor. The swell drops to 2ft or 2ft, period gets short, and the energy is low. There’s a dry spell for about four days where it’s really not worth paddling out.
But hold on – the end of the window looks promising. Friday, July 31st, the period jumps back to a very long 14 seconds, and the energy spikes to 162. That’s a groundswell delivering a clean 2ft to 2ft wave from the S, with offshore winds keeping it tidy. The real action picks up again on Saturday, August 1st, with a solid 2ft S swell, 13-second period, and 218 energy. The wind is light and cross-offshore, so it’ll be clean.
Sunday, August 2nd, keeps that quality going – 2ft to 3ft from the SSW with a 12-second period and light winds. Then Monday, August 3rd, and Tuesday, August 4th, build on it. Tuesday morning, August 4th, is the big one: 3ft from the SSE with a 12-second period and a massive 353 energy reading. That’s a proper push, and with the wind off the NNE, it’s going to be a great session. Keep in mind, that’s two weeks out, so it’s promising but not locked in yet.
So the standout is without a doubt Monday, July 20th – that 3ft S swell, long period, offshore glass, and clean lines. The other real highlight is the end of the forecast, especially Tuesday, August 4th, with that 3ft SSE swell and high energy. Crowds are possible at Coragi, so get in early if you can.

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.
