The Lowdown
Right, Rusty here, giving you the lowdown on the surf ahead.
The main spot to focus on is Coragi, a reef break that works best with a SSE swell. It’s an advanced wave, very consistent, and you’ll likely see a few others out there.
The start is slow. Friday the 4th and Saturday the 5th have waves around 3ft, with a short period of 10 seconds. Combined swell energy is moderate (155-178). The wind is cross-offshore, so it’s not a total loss, but it’s just "surfable."
Sunday the 6th stays small – 3ft to 3ft, same short period. Energy drops a bit (96-125). Nothing to get excited about.
Monday the 7th and Tuesday the 8th mornings are a nice surprise. Monday morning is glassy with a light 5 km/h easterly wind, waves 3ft from the SSE, energy around 114. Tuesday morning is also glassy, 2ft SSE, energy 142. Clean, small, and fun. Water temp is about normal for this time of year.
Wednesday the 9th through Thursday the 10th is poor – swell drops to 1ft to 2ft, longer period but tiny and messy.
Friday the 11th morning brings a pulse: 4ft from the SE, period 9 seconds, and energy jumps to 298. But the wind is cross-shore, and it’s only a marginal call – something to watch.
The real peak is Saturday the 12th and Sunday the 13th. Saturday morning: 3ft from the SSE, period 12 seconds, with a gentle offshore wind from the NNE. Energy is 334 – solid. The notes say "expect good surf conditions." That’s your winner. Sunday morning is similar: 3ft SSE, 11-second period, offshore winds, energy 254. Both days are clean and fun.
After that, it backs off. Monday the 14th to Tuesday the 15th is smaller but still clean with offshore breezes. Wednesday the 16th is a bit rough.
Into the second week, Thursday the 17th to Saturday the 19th, it’s small again – 3ft to 3ft from the S or SSE, short period (8-9 seconds), but with clean offshore winds. Energy is moderate (119-158). Nothing special.
So, the call is clear: Saturday the 12th and Sunday the 13th are your best shots – clean, offshore, decent size, and good energy.
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.
