Coragi Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, this is Rusty, and here’s your local outlook for Coragi.

First off, the water temp is sitting at about 81°, which is right around average for this time of year, so no surprises there.

We’ve got a bit of a slow start, but don’t walk away yet. The first window opens up Wednesday morning with a small 2ft SSE swell, but a stiff 15 mph offshore from the NE will have it looking tidy. It’s not big, but clean, and the energy is moderate at best. The real action starts picking up Wednesday afternoon though, when a 3ft S groundswell arrives with a 12-second period and light offshore winds. That’s proper clean and will have some push to it. That’s the first real standout – a sweet afternoon session on the cards.

Thursday morning drops to a tiny 1ft SSW swell, but the period is a whopping 17 seconds – that’s a long-period groundswell. At a reef break like Coragi, that’s gold. It’ll be glassy clean with light NE winds, and the energy is still moderate. If you can get out there, it’ll be lined up and gorgeous.

Friday sees a bit of a mixed bag. The morning has a 4ft SSE swell, but the period is short at 8 seconds, so it’ll be a bit crumbly. Still, the offshore winds (NNE at 9 mph) will keep it rideable. The real gem might be Saturday afternoon – 4ft SSW swell, long 16-second period, and almost no wind at all. The energy jumps up significantly, which is proper fun. That’s your top pick for the week. Watch for the risk of thunderstorms though, but the surf will be worth it.

Sunday holds up with a 3ft SSW swell, clean offshore winds, and strong energy. Another solid morning. Monday is similar, with a 2ft S swell but a 16-second period and good wind. Tuesday and Wednesday of the following week look excellent too – 4ft to 5ft SSW swells, consistent 14-15 second periods, and steady offshore breezes. The energy levels are high, so Coragi is going to be firing.

Then we hit a rough patch. Thursday 20 August turns ugly – 22 mph cross-onshore winds and lumpy conditions. Avoid that. The surf quality drops to zero.

But hold on – Friday 21 August brings a surprise: glassy conditions with a 3ft SSW groundswell and a 12-second period. No wind at all. That’s a sneaky good session for those who can dodge the mid-week mess. We then see a slow decline into smaller, cleaner but weaker waves through the weekend and into the next week.

From about 24 August, the energy drops and the swell becomes more ordinary – small S swells around 2ft to 3ft with short periods. It’s surfable for a log or a longboard, but nothing to get excited about. The last real gasp is the morning of the 26th with a 4ft S swell, but it’s only 8 seconds, so it’ll be a bit weak. Still, clean.

The absolute standout without question is the Saturday afternoon session (15 August) with that long-period SSW groundswell and almost dead-calm conditions. The second best is the Wednesday 19 August morning: 5ft SSW, 15-second period, and strong offshore winds. That’s power and precision.

Crowds at Coragi can show up sometimes, so if you’re aiming for that Saturday session, get in early – it’s a reef break with proper waves on offer.
