The Lowdown
Right, grab a coffee and listen up. Rusty here.
Okay, looking at the charts for Corners, it’s a pretty grim run for the next week or so. We’ve got a big gap of nothing happening from the 3rd right through to the morning of the 12th of September. That’s a lot of flat, clean water with barely a bump to paddle for. The setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer for most of that time, with onshore breezes and tiny waves. The only real glimmer comes in the second half of the outlook.
The standout moment is the afternoon of Saturday the 12th of September. A moderate offshore wind from the East at 16 mph is forecast, set to groom a fresh pulse of swell. We’re looking at a 6 ft swell arriving from the SE with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy sits at a moderate 374, so there’s some push behind it. Conditions are expected to be good, and for an advanced break like this reef, that’s the window. Crowds are often an issue here, so get in the water early.
Now, looking further out, there’s a late possibility on the 17th of September (Thursday afternoon) and into the 18th (Friday). A bigger swell builds, hitting 7 ft from the SE on the 17th with a combined energy of 623 (strong), and then holding at 7 ft from the SSE on the 18th. At 7 ft, that’s expert territory only. While the size is there, the wind is light and variable from the SSE, which is cross or cross-on shore, making it appear choppy and marginal. It’s a promising long-range signal, but far less certain than the Saturday spot. Water temps are around 83° for the first swell, which is pretty normal for the time of year.
So, short story: a whole lot of nothing, then a clean Saturday afternoon session, with a bigger, messier swell rolling in the following week. Keep your eyes peeled.

Information about the Corners Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Corners provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Corners can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Corners 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 (Corners) 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 Corners 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.
