Coragi Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it for Coragi.

We’ve got a drawn-out run of small to tiny surf over the next couple of weeks. The first real standout is not gonna be right away. We’ll have to wait through a fair bit of ordinary conditions before something worth getting excited about shows up.

The opening of the period on Monday the 31st of August kicks off with a small, clean 4ft SSW groundswell with a period of 14 seconds. The wind is cross-off from the NE, so the reef at Coragi is looking alright, but it’s not a standout. The combined swell energy is moderate (580). Into Tuesday and Wednesday, the swell drops to 3ft – 3ft from the SSW and S, with clean offshore winds, making for some fun little waves but nothing to call home about. The energy is dropping into the low to mid 200s.

Then we hit a bit of a gap. Thursday and Friday (3rd and 4th September) are poor with crummy conditions and the swell is small and weak. It’s a real lull, and the energy drops into the 100s. Saturday and Sunday (5th and 6th) are ordinary – surfable, but very unremarkable. The combined energy dips below 100 on Sunday.

The first true standout lands on Friday the 11th of September. We see a nice jump in quality. The swell comes from the SSE at 3ft but with a period of 12 seconds, which is proper groundswell. The wind is offshore from the N in the morning, and cross-off from the NW in the afternoon. The combined energy is back up to 276 and 286, which is a solid moderate. This is the best on offer for the first week. The SSE direction is a good match for the optimum at Coragi, and the clean conditions will make it a real gem.

The following morning, Saturday the 12th of September, is even better. We get an increase to 4ft from the SSE, with a period of 11 seconds, and glassy conditions with the wind from the ENE. The energy is 378 – that’s the peak of the whole run. The water temps are about average for the time of year, nothing unusual. This is your absolute best bet: clean, glassy, solid 4ft reef waves. The afternoon on that day turns onshore from the SSW, so hit the morning session.

After that, the swell stays small and clean through to the 15th, with energy in the 200s and 250s, but nothing that matches the punch of that 11th and 12th September window. The entire run is pretty consistent for Coragi’s standards, so it’s never a total write-off.

Rusty.
