The Lowdown
G'day, Rusty here. Look, I won't sugarcoat it—Coragi is in a bit of a flat spell to start, so don't bother paddling out until later in the period. The first week is mostly a write-off with small, weak swell and onshore winds. We've got a gap of virtually no surf for the first five days, with only tiny, poor waves. The water temp is sitting at 79°, which is about average for this time of year, so at least you won't be cold while you're waiting.
The first real glimmer of hope comes on Monday the 3rd of August. The morning shows a little 3 ft swell from the SSW, but with a short 7-second period, it's not going to have much push. The wind is a light cross-offshore from the NNW, so the surface will be clean, but the combined energy is only 111 (weak). It's surfable, but very ordinary.
Things start to look a bit more promising by Thursday morning the 6th of August. We've got glassy conditions with an ESE wind, and a small 3 ft SSE swell with an 8-second period. The combined energy creeps up to 119 (weak), but it's still not going to get your heart racing. The afternoon turns offshore from the north, so it's clean, but still small.
Now, the standout period is definitely the second weekend. Saturday the 15th of August is looking like the pick of the whole forecast. The morning brings glassy conditions with a light SE wind, and a solid 4 ft swell from the SSE with a 13-second period—that's a nice long-period groundswell, so it'll have some real energy. The combined energy jumps to 732 (strong), which is a massive step up. This is a reef break, so that long-period swell will wrap in nicely and offer some proper shape. It's an advanced spot, so this is for the experienced crew. The afternoon is a bit more marginal due to cross-shore winds, but the morning window is pure gold.
Sunday the 16th of August is also excellent. The morning has a light offshore from the north, keeping it clean, with a 4 ft SE swell at 12 seconds. The energy is still strong at 653 (strong). This is another top session for the advanced surfer, with consistent waves and good shape. Crowds are possible here, as it's a consistent spot, but with the quality on offer, it's worth it.
So, to wrap it up: the first week is a dud, but hold out for the 15th and 16th of August. That's where the magic is. This is a reliable reef break that loves a south swell, and when it fires, it's special. Keep an eye on the forecasts, but I reckon you'll be stoked if you get there on the Saturday morning. Rusty 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.
