The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’ll be straight with you – the next couple of weeks are a bit of a mixed bag for Coragi. There’s some action on the horizon, but you’ll need to be patient and pick your sessions carefully. The first few days are pretty flat, but things start to build up towards the end of the first week and into the second.
We kick off on Wednesday the 29th of July with tiny, weak waves. The swell is only 2 ft from the SSE with a short period of 8 seconds, and the combined energy is a feeble 46. The wind is offshore from the NNE, which keeps the surface clean, but there’s just not enough oomph to get excited about. Thursday the 30th and Friday the 31st are similar – small, weak swells in the 1.0 ft to 2 ft range. Thursday morning shows a 1.0 ft S swell with a very long period of 16 seconds, but the energy is still low at 57. Friday morning is glassy, which is a nice change, but the waves are still just surfable, not good.
Saturday the 1st of August and Sunday the 2nd see a slight bump in size, but the wind turns onshore or cross-onshore, making conditions choppy and messy. The swell height reaches 3 ft on Sunday morning from the SSE, with a period of 8 seconds, and the energy climbs to 238, but it’s a cross-onshore breeze and the wave quality is poor. Not worth paddling out for.
Now, here’s where it gets interesting. Monday the 3rd of August is the first real standout. The afternoon session brings a 3 ft swell from the SSW with a solid 13-second period – that’s proper groundswell. The combined energy jumps to 318, which is moderate, and the wind is offshore from the NE, keeping things clean. This is the best the first week has to offer, and it’s the only time you’ll see a “good surf conditions” tag in the first week. The swell direction is from the SSE, which is the optimum direction for this break, so Coragi (Brazil) should be handling it well. Keep in mind, with a period over 11 seconds, this long-period swell will be best for the reef setup here, not the beach. Crowds are possible, so get in early.
The rest of the first week and into the second week is mostly ordinary. There are gaps of several days – Tuesday the 4th through Thursday the 6th – where the waves are small and unremarkable, with energy bouncing between 75 and 211. The best of those is Thursday morning the 6th, with a glassy 3 ft SSE swell and 158 energy, but it’s still just “surfable.”
The second week picks up a bit. Friday the 7th of August morning looks good again – 3 ft from the S with an 8-second period, but the wind is offshore from the NNE, giving us gentle offshore and clean conditions. Energy is 215. Then Saturday the 8th of August is another standout: both morning and afternoon have 3 ft S swells with an 11-second period and clean cross-offshore winds from the E. Energy is 226 and 204 respectively. This is consistent, clean, and the swell direction matches the optimum. It’s not huge, but it’s quality.
The following week, from Sunday the 9th to Wednesday the 12th, the surf stays in the 2 ft to 3 ft range, mostly from the S or SSE, with periods between 9 and 12 seconds. The wind is often offshore or cross-offshore, keeping things clean. The energy fluctuates between 108 and 268. The best of this stretch is Wednesday the 12th afternoon, with a 3 ft S swell, 12-second period, 268 energy, and light offshore wind. That’s a solid, clean session.
Finally, Thursday the 13th of August is the last day in the outlook, and it’s a strong finish. Morning and afternoon both have 3 ft to 4 ft SSE swells, with a 10-second period and energy of 226 and 300. The wind is offshore from the N, with a moderate breeze in the afternoon, giving us moderate offshore and clean conditions. That’s the biggest swell of the whole period, and with the right wind, it should be a fun day at Coragi.
Water temperature is 80°F, which is about average for the time of year.
Overall, the best bets are Monday the 3rd afternoon, Saturday the 8th, and Thursday the 13th. The swell is never huge – maxing out at 4 ft – so it’s manageable for most, but beginners might find the 3 ft+ days a bit challenging. Keep an eye on the long-period swells, which will favour the reef. The second week is more reliable than the first, but it’s all a bit on the small side. Don’t expect any barrels, just clean, fun waves if you pick the right windows.
Rusty.

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.
