The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it. We’ve got a quiet stretch ahead for Coragi, with a bit of a wait before anything really gets going. The water is sitting at around 82°F right now, which is about average for this time of year, so nothing weird going on there.
The first few days are pretty underwhelming. We’re looking at small SSE swell, mostly around 3ft to 3ft, with a period of 9 to 10 seconds. The wave energy is weak to moderate (193 down to 98). The wind is offshore from the north-northeast, which is a positive, but the swell is just too small and weak to get excited about. The conditions are clean, but it’s a real struggle to call it surfable. It’s like waiting for a fish to bite on a bare hook.
There’s a gap of several days here where there’s nothing really worth paddling out for. The combined energy drops into the double digits, which is a real tell. From the 7th to the 10th, we get some glassy conditions, but the swell is tiny, around 2ft to 2ft. It’s pretty, but not much fun.
Then, from the 11th of September onward, things start to look a bit more promising. The swell picks up a bit, with a 3ft SSE swell on the Friday afternoon, period 12 seconds, and the combined energy jumps to 317 (moderate). The wind is cross-off from the east-northeast, so it’s clean. Saturday morning the 12th looks like the best bet on offer. Swell at 4ft from the SSE, 12-second period, with a moderate offshore from the north-northeast. The energy is up to 358 (moderate), and it’s clean. This is a standout for the whole outlook. The swell direction matches the optimum, and the offshore wind will keep it smooth. It’s a reef break, so the long-period groundswell will work well here, shaping up nice.
The 13th of September is also good, with a 3ft SSE swell, 11-second period, and offshore winds again. The energy is 219 (moderate). It’s a bit smaller, but still clean and fun. After that, it tails off again into the second week. The 16th of September shows a 2ft S swell with a 14-second period and energy of 240 (moderate), which is interesting, but it’s a very small groundswell. The offshore wind will help, but it’s a bit of a gamble.
Overall, the standout is Saturday morning, the 12th of September. It’s the best combination of size, clean wind, and decent energy. The 13th is a close second. For the rest, it’s a waiting game. The wind is mostly offshore, which is a blessing, but we need more swell to really get the blood pumping. Stay tuned, forecasts can change.
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.
