The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break it down.
We’ve got a solid stretch of swell lined up at Coronation Beach, but the first few days are a bit of a mixed bag. The water temp is sitting right around 68°, which is dead average for this time of year – nothing to write home about.
Wednesday the 5th, the morning session looks clean with a 7ft SW groundswell and a light cross-off breeze, but it’s not the main event. Thursday and Friday the 6th and 7th see the swell bump up to nearly 10ft, but the wind turns onshore and messes it up. Saturday the 8th is a total loss – 40 km/h winds and lumpy, dangerous conditions.
Now, Sunday the 9th of August. That’s the day. Morning delivers a solid 13ft SW groundswell with a 18-second period – that’s serious energy (9085 combined energy) – and a light offshore breeze from the ESE. It’s clean, powerful, and strictly for experienced surfers. Afternoon goes glassy with an 12ft swell. That Sunday is the pick of the whole run. This spot is a beach and reef setup, and with that long period, the waves will stand up and throw over the reef. Crowds can show up sometimes, but on a day this size, only the committed will be out.
Monday the 10th gets windy again, then Tuesday the 11th has a clean 12ft swell with cross-off winds – good, but not the magic of Sunday. Wednesday the 12th offers offshore wind and a clean 10ft swell.
The following weekend (Saturday 15th) drops to about 6ft and the wind goes cross-on – sloppy. Sunday 16th is choppy and poor. Monday 17th pumps up to a massive 13ft SW swell with a 18-second period (energy over 10,700), but the wind is cross-on and strong – that’s more of a kite surfing day than a paddle day.
Tuesday the 18th of August morning brings a clean 10ft groundswell with light offshore wind – a solid finish for the experts.
The last few days into the 20th see the swell back to about 8ft, with clean conditions on Thursday morning – a nice gentle end for the confident intermediate.
Best on offer: Sunday the 9th of August. Big, clean, and powerful. Don’t sleep on it.
Rusty.

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