Coragi Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, grab your board. Rusty here, and I've been staring at the charts for this little corner of the world. Let's see what we've got cookin'.

First up, the water temp is sitting at a balmy 79°F, which is pretty much spot on for this time of year. Nothing weird going on there.

The next couple of weeks are a bit of a mixed bag. We've got a lot of small, weak surf on the menu, but there are a couple of windows where things line up. The first few days are pretty ordinary, with the swell energy struggling to get past triple digits and the wind not playing nice. But hold on, because from the 3rd of August onwards, the pattern starts to shift for the better.

The standout period here at Coragi is the morning of the 3rd of August. The swell bumps up to 3ft from the SSE, with a decent energy reading of 207, and the wind is a light, clean offshore breeze from the NE. That's a recipe for clean, fun waves. It's a reef break, so it'll handle the swell well. The current is exposed to the SSE, which is the optimum direction, so it's a good match.

Another one to circle is the morning of the 9th of August. The swell is pushing 5ft from the SSE with energy at 275, and again we've got a gentle offshore wind from the NNE. That's the biggest swell of the forecast, and with the wind looking solid, it'll be firing. This one is a bit more for the advanced crew, as 5ft on a reef can get a bit of push.

The 12th of August is also worth a mention. The afternoon session sees a very long period groundswell from the SSE at 18 seconds, with the energy absolutely pumping at 646. The swell is only 3ft, but that period is massive. It's a clean offshore wind from the NE, so it'll be perfect. The only catch is that with such a long period, the sets will be spaced out and the waves might be a bit too straight for a beach break, but on a reef like Coragi, it should be a dream. Just be aware that this one is a week and a half away, so it's a promising long-range target.

The other days in between are mostly small and average. The 4th of August has a glassy afternoon with 1ft of swell, and the 5th of August morning is glassy as well, but the waves are tiny. If you're desperate for a paddle, you could get a few, but nothing to write home about.

In short, Monday morning the 3rd of August is your best bet for a solid, clean session. The 9th of August is the one for the bigger swell, and the 12th of August is the wildcard with the super-long period groundswell. The rest of the time, you're better off waiting for the tide or the next forecast.

Rusty.
