Coragi Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright mates, Rusty here with the lowdown.

The first few days are small but clean, so you’ll get wet if you want. The real gold is a bit further out, so don’t pack your gear away just yet.

Coragi is the only break on the radar. It’s a reef that works best with swell from south-southeast to south-southwest. Water temp is 82°F with an anomaly of 1°F – pretty average for this time of year, nothing wild.

Sunday 23rd August starts off with a clean 3ft swell from the SSW at 11 seconds. Combined energy is 224 – moderate. Offshore winds from the NNE keep it glassy in the morning and clean all day. Crowds are sometimes a thing, but with these waves, you’ll have room to move.

Monday 24th and Tuesday 25th drop off. Swell goes to 3-3ft with shorter 8-10 second periods and energy in the 90-148 range – weak to moderate. Wind stays offshore but picks up Tuesday to 19 mph, making it a bit of a grind. Not worth getting excited about.

Wednesday 26th brings a spike: 8ft from the SE at 10 seconds, combined energy of 1077 (strong). But the wind turns east then cross-shore, plus there’s a risk of thunderstorms and rain. That size is expert-only and the conditions are messy. Kite surfers might be stoked.

Thursday 27th is glassy with 4ft swell but only 8 seconds – short period and weak energy (195). Clean though, so if you want a quiet session on a grovel board, go for it.

Friday 28th is tiny – 2-2ft with offshore wind. The afternoon has a 16-second period, so some long-period energy, but it’s just too small.

Now the good stuff. Saturday 29th August picks up: 3ft SSW at 15 seconds, combined energy 422 (moderate), clean offshore winds. That long period will give you proper shape on the reef.

Sunday 30th and Monday 31st August are the standouts. Swell holds at 4ft from the SSW with a 16-second period (very long period groundswell). Combined energy hits 765 and 806 – strong. Winds are light offshore or near calm. The conditions are clean, the direction is right for the reef, and it’s consistent. This is your window. Crowds are possible but worth it.

After that, it settles back to 2-3ft through early September. Winds stay favourable but energy drops into the 100-250 range. Nothing special, but there’ll be fun waves for small-wave gear.

The second week is quiet. Swell runs 2-3ft from the SSE at 9 seconds through the first few days, with low energy (107-148). Sunday 6th and Monday 7th September are clean again but small and weak – not much punch.

The standout is Sunday 30th and Monday 31st August – that long-period SSW groundswell with light winds is the one to circle. Everything else is small to moderate, but mostly clean.
