Coragi Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break it down.

We’ve got a solid 16-day window ahead, but it’s a slow starter. The first real action kicks off Monday afternoon, August 31st, at Coragi. This reef is very consistent, exposed to the south, so it grabs everything that comes through. Water temp is 28°C, right around average for this time of year – nothing wild.

The best waves of the whole period are on that Monday afternoon. A clean cross-offshore breeze from the ENE at 9 mph, with a 4 ft SSW swell rolling in at a 14-second period. That’s proper groundswell – long gaps, plenty of punch, and it’s gonna wrap in sweet. The combined energy is moderate (569), and conditions are clean. This is the one. It’s a reef break, so it’s for the advanced crew, but it’s a real treat.

Then things settle. Tuesday morning, September 1st, still looks good – 3 ft SSW swell, offshore NE wind at 12 mph, and a 13-second period. Clean, smaller, but still very surfable. That holds through the afternoon and into Wednesday morning with a 3 ft S swell, offshore winds, and a 12-second period. Energy drops a bit (207 to 283), but it’s still fun.

Thursday morning, September 3rd, the swell drops to 2 ft and the period shortens to 9 seconds – more windswell. Energy is weak (137). Still clean, but ordinary. Friday and the weekend are mostly small and messy, with a few glimmers – Saturday morning has a 3 ft SSE swell with offshore NNE wind, but the period is short at 10 seconds, so just okay.

There’s a gap from the 6th to the 10th where the surf is flat or weak. Energy drops into the double digits (74 to 100), and the swell is small and inconsistent. Not worth paddling out.

Then, on Friday, September 11th, things pick up again. A 3 ft SSE swell with a 12-second period, offshore NNE wind at 6 mph, and clean conditions. Energy jumps back to moderate (318). That’s another good one. Saturday, September 12th, is similar – 3 ft to 3 ft SSE swell, 11-second period, and offshore winds both morning and afternoon. Solid.

After that, it trails off. Sunday and Monday are small, with a brief spike on Monday afternoon, September 14th – a 2 ft S swell but with a very long 15-second period. That’s proper groundswell, but tiny. Energy is moderate (227), and it’ll be clean and lined up. Then Tuesday, September 15th, is small again.

So, the standout is definitely Monday afternoon, August 31st, at Coragi. That’s the one to lock in. The second week has a couple of promising days, especially Friday the 11th and Saturday the 12th, but they’re smaller and less certain. Keep an eye on it.
