The Lowdown
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.

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.
