Coragi Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming up at Coragi over the next couple of weeks.

We’ve got a nice little run of surf kicking off from Saturday the 11th of July. The overall pattern is a solid, consistent pulse of south swell, with clean conditions holding for most of the first week. This is a classic reef break setup, so it’s going to be handling the long-period groundswell really well.

The standout window is Saturday the 11th through Sunday the 12th. That’s the peak of the swell. Saturday morning you’re looking at a clean 3ft swell from the south, with a very long 16-second period and a gentle offshore breeze from the NNE. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing to write home about. The combined energy is moderate (660). It’s going to be absolutely glassy and lined up. Saturday afternoon drops a fraction to 3ft, but still clean and offshore. Sunday stays solid with 4ft to 4ft from the south, still a long 14-second period, and the same clean offshore wind. The energy is still moderate (605). This is the best on offer, no question. For an advanced reef, these are dream conditions. Expect some crew out there, as it can get crowded here.

By Monday the 13th, the swell eases a touch to 3ft, but it’s still clean and offshore. Good, just not the standout. Tuesday the 14th drops further to 2ft, and the period shortens. Still surfable, and the wind stays gentle offshore.

From Wednesday the 15th, things get smaller and the wind starts to shift. Wednesday afternoon the wind goes cross-offshore, and the swell is down to 2ft. Not great. Thursday the 16th is tiny, with 1ft south-southwest swell, though the period is very long at 19 seconds. The energy is weak (175). It’s surfable but ordinary.

Then we get a little window of glassy conditions on Saturday the 18th and Sunday the 19th. Saturday morning is dead calm and glassy, with 2ft south-southwest swell. Sunday morning bumps back up to 3ft, with a clean light wind. The energy is moderate (415). That’s a decent little pulse for the second week, but it’s not as strong as the first weekend.

The rest of the run into late July is very small, with 1ft to 2ft waves, mostly short period, and the energy drops into the double digits (87). From the 24th onwards, it’s pretty flat. There’s a big gap of nothing worth paddling out for from around the 24th to the end of the outlook.

So, bottom line: get out there Saturday the 11th and Sunday the 12th. That’s the pick of the forecast. The following weekend is a distant second option, but still worth a look if you’re desperate.

Rusty.
