The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's get into it.
We're looking at a pretty drawn-out run of small, clean conditions at Coragi. It's a classic reef break, suited for the advanced crew, and it's exposed to the SSE. The water's sitting at 82°, which is pretty much what you'd expect for this time of year.
The first week is a slow grind. Thursday morning (3rd September) kicks off with tiny 2ft SSE swell, but it's clean with a cross-off breeze. The energy is weak (137), so you’ll be working for every decent wave. Friday and Saturday stay similar, with 3ft SSE swell, but the wind turns offshore on Saturday, which is a nice touch. The water stays glassy or clean for most of these mornings, but honestly, the waves are just ordinary. The combined energy climbs into the moderate range (151-158), but it's nothing to write home about. Sunday and Monday (6th-7th) dip a little, with the swell dropping to 3ft, and Sunday morning sees a little drop in energy (98). Then Monday and Tuesday (7th-8th) have some glassy periods, but the swell is tiny.
There's a real standout hiding in the second week. The real action, and the best bet of the whole outlook, is Friday the 11th of September. The morning brings a jump in energy (215) with 3ft SSE swell, but it's the afternoon that gets the blood pumping. Swell builds to 4ft from the SSE, with a solid 12-second period, and combined energy hits a strong 394. The wind is off from the NE, which is a major positive for this reef. This is the one to circle on the calendar. Expect clean, punchy sets.
The weekend following that (12th-13th September) holds decent, with clean conditions and offshore winds, but the swell backs off a touch. The 12th still has moderate energy (324) and 4ft swell, but it's a step down from Friday. After that, the run fades into smaller, cleaner surf through the rest of the second week, with the 15th September afternoon showing a little bump in energy (214) with a 2ft S swell.
Crowds can show up at Coragi sometimes, so if you're chasing the Friday 11th session, get there early. The rest of the run is quiet, but the forecasts can change.
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.
