The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the table for Coragi over the next couple of weeks.
Right now, things are pretty quiet. The first few days are small and nothing to get excited about. We’re seeing tiny 1.6ft to 2.0ft swells with moderate energy (around 135 to 146), and while the winds are mostly cross-off to glassy, the waves are just too weak to get the heart pumping. It’s surfable, but only just. The water temp is sitting about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
Things start to pick up a bit from Friday afternoon, 11 September, when the swell bumps up to 3.0ft from the SE, with period around 11 seconds and clean offshore winds from the NE. The energy climbs into moderate territory (210), and the shape should be a bit more fun. Saturday the 12th and Sunday the 13th keep that trend going, with similar 2.6ft to 3.0ft swells from the SSE, consistent offshore winds, and moderate energy building to 274. The waves are clean, but still on the smaller side for an advanced reef break like Coragi.
The standout window is really shaping up for Monday the 21st of September. That morning we’ve got 2.3ft SSW swell, but it’s the jump in quality that gets you. The combined energy hits a strong 506, with a very long period of 16 seconds – proper groundswell. Winds are offshore from the NNE at 12 mph, keeping the surface clean. By afternoon, the swell nudges 3.0ft from the SSW, energy surges to 617, and it’s still offshore. This is the one to circle. Coragi is a reef break, so that long-period groundswell should line up beautifully and give those longer, more powerful walls. Just remember, this is an exposed spot and it’s advanced-only, so it’s not for the faint-hearted. Plus, with crowds listed as sometimes, you might have company.
The days either side of that are still worth paddling out. The 22nd sees bigger wind (15-18 mph offshore) but the swell holds around 3.0ft to 3.3ft, though the energy takes a little dip. Still, it’s clean and offshore. The 23rd and 24th hang onto 2.6ft swells, with moderate energy and generally cross-off to offshore breezes, so the quality stays up.
Most of the forecast is in the first week and a half. The early days are slow, but don’t write it off – once the groundswell kicks in around the 21st, Coragi will be the spot.
Stay keen.

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.
