The Lowdown
Alright, let’s switch to feet and Fahrenheit for the crew who think in those numbers.
First up, we’re looking at a pretty quiet start to the forecast here at Coragi. The coming days are a bit of a write-off, with small weak energy and only the odd session that’s barely surfable. We’ve got a long stretch of poor conditions from Tuesday afternoon right through the weekend, so don’t get your hopes up for the next few days.
The first real glimpse of something decent pops up on Monday morning, August 3rd. That’s when we see a clean window with a light offshore breeze from the NE. Swell is a modest 3ft from the S, with a short period of 8 seconds, so it’s not going to be world-class, but it’ll be rideable and clean. The combined energy is moderate (211). This is about as good as it gets in the first week, so if you’re keen, that’s your window.
The standout period, and the one I’d circle on the calendar, is the run from Saturday morning, August 8th, through to Monday morning, August 10th. We’ve got clean offshore winds, mostly from the NE and NNE, and the swell is holding steady around 3ft from the SSE. The Sunday afternoon session on August 9th is the real pick of the bunch – a 3ft S swell with a 12-second period, combined energy of 350 (moderate), and clean offshores. That’s good, lined-up surf for the advanced crew at this reef break. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing unusual there.
Keep in mind that Coragi is a very consistent reef break, so it knows how to hold a swell. But with the longer period (12 seconds) on Sunday, expect a bit more push and better shape, though it might break a little straighter. Crowds are sometimes an issue here, so get in early.
The following week holds a few more clean, offshore mornings, but the swell drops a bit. The morning of Wednesday, August 12th, brings a 3ft S swell, 12-second period, and light offshore winds – another solid option for the patient surfer.
So, to sum it up: the next few days are a wash. Wait for Monday morning, August 3rd, for a decent session, but the real gold is on Saturday the 8th through Monday the 10th, with the Sunday afternoon being the best of the lot.

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.
