Coragi Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, this is Rusty checkin' in from the coast. Let's have a look at what's on the table for the next couple of weeks.

Right off the bat, it's a slow start. We're lookin' at a lean spell, so don't bother waxin' up just yet. The first real chance to get wet doesn't come until Monday, July 27th, and even then, it's pretty ordinary. The swell is small, only about 3 ft of SSE windswell with a short period of 8 seconds, and the combined energy is weak (86). The wind's a cross-off from the ENE at 12 mph, which keeps it clean, but the waves are just poor. You'll be fightin' for weak, crumbly lines.

Things pick up just a hair on Tuesday, July 28th. The morning brings a little more juice, with a 3 ft SSE swell, still short period at 8 seconds, but the combined energy gets up to a moderate 151. The wind swings around to a clean offshore from the NNE at 12 mph, which is a solid positive. For a reef break like Coragi, that offshore wind and the exposed nature to the SSE swell should line up alright. It's a spot for advanced surfers, and it's very consistent, so even with this small stuff, there'll be waves. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothin' wild to report there. Keep in mind, crowds are sometimes an issue here, so you might have some company.

The rest of the first week is a bit of a write-off. Wednesday the 29th and Thursday the 30th see the swell drop right off into the 1.0 ft to 2 ft range, with energy levels dropping below 100. The wind stays clean for a lot of it, but there's just no power.

Now, the second week has a couple of interesting flickers. Friday, July 31st, we see a 2 ft S swell with a period of 13 seconds, giving a moderate combined energy of 151. The wind is light offshore from the north at 3 mph, nearly glassy. It's surfable, but still ordinary.

The most promising window, and the one I'd call the standout, is Sunday, August 9th. The morning shows a 3 ft SSE swell with a 10-second period, and the combined energy is a solid 264 (moderate). The wind is a clean offshore from the NNE at 6 mph. That's a nice combo for Coragi. The afternoon gets even better, with a 2 ft S groundswell hitting a very long 16-second period. The energy jumps to 380. The wind is a light cross-off from the WNW, keeping it clean. That long period will bring some proper lines, though it's a Monday morning, so it's a bit of a tease. The period is over 15 seconds, so the waves will have a lot of push, but might be a bit straight at the beach. For a reef setup like Coragi, though, it should be magic.

A few other days in the second week have some half-decent conditions. Monday, August 10th, has a 3 ft S swell with a 14-second period and moderate energy (347), and the wind is cross-off, but it's a bit breezier. Thursday, August 6th, has a glassy afternoon with a 3 ft SSE swell and 8-second period, and the energy hits 220. The score says "expect good surf conditions" for that one, which is our best score in the whole run.

But truly, for the best on offer, I'm circling Sunday, August 9th, especially the afternoon session. It's a long way out, so the details might shift, but the potential is there. Get it while it's good.

Rusty, out.
