The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get into it. The next couple of weeks are looking pretty lackluster, to be honest. We’ve got a solid run of small, clean waves at Coragi, but nothing that’s gonna have you calling in sick. The energy is there, but it’s all pretty weak for the most part.
We kick things off on Tuesday the 8th. It’s tiny, with 1.3ft to 1.6ft of SSW swell. The winds are light offshore though, so it’s clean, but there’s just not enough push. The swell energy is weak (112-155). It’s a groveler’s session.
Wednesday the 9th stays in that same vein. Still small, 1.6ft to 2ft, but the wind goes light and variable, with a bit of a N breeze in the morning. Clean, but still pretty weak (121-168). The water temp is about average for this time of year.
Thursday the 10th gets a little more breeze, with a 15 km/h ENE cross-offshore wind. It keeps the surf clean but there’s not much size – 1.3ft to 1.6ft. The energy is still weak, especially by the afternoon (94).
Now, Friday the 11th, we get a window of pure glass. The morning is dead calm, 0 km/h wind, and the surf is a tiny 1.6ft from the SE. It’s as clean as it gets, but it’s still tiny. The afternoon sees a bit more size at 3ft but with a cross-shore breeze that puts a few ripples on it. Energy is picking up a touch (154-239). This is a good day for a longboard, nothing else.
The weekend, the 12th and 13th, sees a slight bump in consistency and size, pushing 2.6ft. The wind is offshore from the NNE, which is clean. It’s still not big, but the energy is building into the moderate range (187-245). The swell direction is SSE, which works for Coragi. It’s surfable, but you’ll be working for it.
The standouts of this whole window start on Monday the 14th. The morning is glassy with 2.3ft from the SSE, and the energy is now solidly moderate (266). But the real change comes in the afternoon. The swell period jumps to 18 seconds, a proper groundswell, and the size is 1.6ft with a lot more push behind it. The energy jumps to 313. This is where it starts getting interesting.
Tuesday the 15th is the pick of the bunch. We’ve got 2.6ft to 3ft of SSW groundswell with a 14-15 second period. The winds are offshore and clean. The energy is strong (409-412). Coragi is a reef, so this longer period is exactly what it wants. This is the day to get wet.
Wednesday the 16th keeps the good times rolling. The swell backs off a touch to 2.3ft but it’s still clean with offshore winds. Energy is strong (257-243). It’s still very good, just a notch below Tuesday.
Then things start to fade. Thursday the 17th is smaller, 2.3ft dropping to 1.3ft, and the energy starts to wane. Friday the 18th is a mixed bag with a tiny 1ft morning but a cleaner 1.6ft and a long 16s period in the afternoon. The energy is still moderate (259).
The second week gets a bit messier. Saturday the 19th has a poor morning with onshore SSW wind, but the afternoon cleans up to glassy with 2ft from a long-period S swell (16s). The energy is strong (448). It’s worth checking out.
Sunday the 20th is another good one, with 2.3ft from the S and offshore ENE winds, building to a fresh 25 km/h offshore by the afternoon. The energy is very strong (466). This is the other standout.
Monday the 21st has the winds howling offshore at 30 km/h, which will make it difficult. The swell is 2ft to 2.6ft, but the wind will likely create some bumpy conditions, making it marginal.
Tuesday the 22nd is better, but the swell has dropped back to 2ft to 2.3ft. The winds are offshore or cross-offshore, so it’s clean.
Wednesday the 23rd is a write-off. ESE cross-shore wind and poor conditions. The run ends there.
So, to put it simply: The first few days are tiny and marginal. The real window of opportunity is from Monday the 14th through Wednesday the 16th, with Tuesday the 15th looking the best for quality. The second standout is Sunday the 20th. After that, it fades out again. Nothing here is too big, so it’s all manageable for a competent surfer.

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.
