The Lowdown
Alright, grab your board and wax, let's talk about what's cookin'.
Honestly, the next couple of weeks are looking pretty flat and ordinary at Coragi. It's a real mixed bag of tiny swells and onshore winds, so don't get your hopes up too high. We've got a long stretch of nothing special, but there is a glimmer of hope right at the end of the forecast.
The water's sitting at a mild 79°, which is pretty much bang on average for this time of year, so no wetsuit drama.
Tuesday, July 28th through to Thursday, July 31st is just a grind. The swell is tiny, like 1 ft to 3 ft, and while the wind is offshore or glassy at times, the wave energy is just pathetic. The combined energy is barely a whisper, hitting only 92 (weak energy) on Tuesday morning. It's technically surfable but it's a whole lot of work for a knee-high dribble.
Friday, July 31st morning is the first real tease. The wind goes glassy, dead calm, with a 2 ft, 13-second groundswell from the south. The combined energy jumps to 92 again, but it's still tiny. The afternoon cleans up with a light cross-offshore wind and the energy bumping up to 151 (moderate energy), but at 2 ft, it's still a log-worthy day.
Then we hit a wall. From Saturday, August 1st all the way through to Friday, August 7th, the wind goes onshore, cross-onshore, or just plain wrong. The swell gets a little bigger, hitting 4 ft on Sunday, August 2nd, but the wind is straight onshore, making it a messy, choppy mess. The energy is moderate to strong (hitting 312 on the 2nd afternoon), but it's wasted. The wave comment says "poor surf conditions" for most of this stretch. This is a classic kite-surfing setup, not a paddler's paradise.
Now, here's the standout. Mark your calendar for Saturday, August 8th. The clouds clear, the wind swings to a clean cross-offshore from the ENE, and the swell bumps up to a solid 3 ft from the south. The combined energy is a solid 244 (moderate energy). The wave comment says "expect good surf conditions." This is the best on offer. Coragi will be a proper reef break with clean, workable lines. The south-southeast swell direction is right in the sweet spot for this spot. Crowds are possible here, so get there early.
After that, it fades back to small, clean but ordinary surf through to Wednesday, August 12th, with the swell dropping to 2 ft to 2 ft. The energy stays moderate, but it's just not enough to get excited about.
So, bottom line: don't rush out this week. Wait for that Saturday, August 8th window. It's your best shot.

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.
