The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the next couple of weeks. It’s a bit of a slow burner, but we’ve got a few moments where it could really turn on.
The main player is Coragi, a reef break that needs a solid SSE swell and some friendly winds to work its magic. Right now, we’re looking at a long stretch of very average, small surf. For the first week, from Thursday the 3rd through to Wednesday the 9th, the swell is tiny, mostly around 2 ft to 3 ft from the SSE with a short, weak period of around 9 to 10 seconds. The wave energy is low to moderate (137 to 155). The winds are a bit of a mix, but there are some bright spots. Thursday the 3rd morning sees a light cross-off breeze, and Monday the 7th and Tuesday the 8th have some glassy conditions. But honestly, the waves are just too small and weak to get excited about. This isn’t really a surf window, more of a time for a paddle and a tan.
Things start to look a bit more interesting from Thursday the 11th of September. The swell direction swings more SE, the period bumps up to 12 seconds, and the combined energy jumps to a solid 252. Thursday morning sees a cross-off breeze with 3 ft clean surf. By Friday the 12th morning, we’re looking at the pick of the period so far: a 4 ft SSE swell (387 combined energy) with a clean, moderate offshore wind from the NNE. That’s a proper window for Coragi, and with it being a reef break, the longer period will wrap in nicely. This is the standout. Saturday the 13th and Sunday the 14th continue the trend with clean offshore winds and 3 ft to 3 ft SSE swell – good quality, if not massive.
We’ve then got a small lull from Monday the 15th to Wednesday the 17th, but the patterns are shifting. By Thursday the 18th of September, we could see another proper pulse: 3 ft SSE swell with a period of 12 seconds and a very high 494 combined energy. Moderate offshore winds will have it looking clean and lined up. That’s one for the diary, but it’s far out, so keep an eye on it.
All in all, if you’re after a wave, the mornings from Friday the 12th through Sunday the 14th are your best, with a glassy and offshore Coragi. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there. Crowds can show up here sometimes, so don’t expect to have it completely to yourself.
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.
