The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here to break down the next 16 days. Don’t get fired up for any big sets—this is small swell territory, mostly in the 2 to 3 ft range.
We’ve got a steady flow of south-southeast groundswell with periods stretching out to 13 and 14 seconds, which gives the waves a lot more shape than the size would suggest. This is a reef break for the advanced crew. It will be punchy.
Tuesday, the 1st of September, starts us off with a 3 ft SSW swell and a 13-second period. Morning has a 12 mph NNE offshore wind, keeping things clean. A solid start. Wednesday the 2nd is similar, 2 to 3 ft from the south, with a 12 mph offshore wind in the morning.
The best spot early on is Thursday the 3rd. Swell is 2 to 3 ft from the SSE, but that gentle 9 mph offshore breeze and moderate energy make it the pick of the first week. The rest of that week into the second week is much smaller—swell dropping to 2 ft and the energy gets weak. It’s glassy and clean, but nothing exciting.
Now, hold on for Friday the 11th of September. This is the standout. Swell builds back to 3 ft from the SSE, a 12-second period, and the combined energy jumps up strong. Plus, we have a 12 mph NNE offshore wind. This is your session. Saturday the 12th holds that same 3 ft SSE swell and offshore wind, with good energy, too. And Sunday the13th brings a 14-second period south swell with the energy even higher. That is a very good day for the size.
The last few days carry the same theme: small, clean, with offshore winds. It won't be a week of pumping waves, but that spell from the 11th to the 13th is the most promising—optimum direction, consistent offshore wind, and real energy for the size. Just know the crowds will be around when it’s on.
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.
