The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s size up what’s coming for Coronation Beach.
The opening window this Saturday afternoon, July 25th, is a bit of a tease. We’ve got a clean 3ft SW swell with glassy conditions and light ENE wind, 3 mph. The water’s sitting at 68°, which is a bit colder than normal for this time of year. The energy is moderate (392), and the period is a solid 13 seconds, so there’s some push. It’s a decent start, but the standout action is still a few days out.
Sunday morning, July 26th, drops off to a tiny 2ft SW swell with a very long 16-second period, but the wind is offshore from the WNW at 3 mph. The energy is still moderate (345). It’s a marginal call, and the tide could be a factor. Sunday afternoon turns choppy with a cross-onshore wind, so not worth paddling out for.
Monday, July 27th, is where it gets interesting. The morning brings a solid 8ft SW swell with a 14-second period, and clean offshore ESE wind at 16 mph. The energy jumps to strong (1864). This is excellent for experienced surfers – too big for beginners, but for those with the skills, the waves will be well-shaped and powerful. The wind stays offshore through the afternoon, with the swell just a touch smaller at 7ft. This is a top pick.
Tuesday, July 28th, keeps the quality up. Morning offshore E wind at 16 mph with a 7ft SW swell, period 15 seconds, and strong energy (1690). The afternoon cleans up even more with gentle offshore ESE wind at 9 mph and a 6ft swell. The period drops to 14 seconds, but the energy is still strong (1522). Solid.
Wednesday, July 29th, offers another standout: the afternoon session. A 6ft SW swell with a very long 17-second period, light offshore E wind at 6 mph, and very strong energy (2641). The waves will be powerful and clean, with long waits between sets. Best for the points and reefs.
After that, the pattern becomes more mixed. Thursday, July 30th, and Friday, July 31st, offer clean but marginal conditions with moderate energy. The morning of Friday has a 6ft SW swell with an 18-second period, but cross-shore wind creates a slight chop. The weekend of August 1st-2nd sees a big 10ft SW swell on Saturday afternoon, but the onshore WNW wind at 12 mph will make it messy. Sunday is windy with cross-offshore winds, keeping the quality average.
The real standout for the second week is Tuesday, August 4th. The morning brings a 5ft SW swell with a 16-second period, light cross-offshore NNE wind at 6 mph, and strong energy (1886). The afternoon sees a 8ft SW swell with a very long 19-second period and very strong energy (4505), but with an onshore wind. The morning is the pick of that day.
The final few days (August 5th-9th) are a mixed bag of onshore winds and large, messy swells. The morning of August 7th has a clean 8ft SW swell with offshore E wind, but it’s big and powerful. The end of the run on August 9th is a no-go with 15ft swell and strong onshore winds.
The best of the whole forecast? Monday, July 27th morning and Wednesday, July 29th afternoon. Both offer clean, powerful SW groundswell with excellent offshore winds. The Monday morning has the size for experts, and the Wednesday afternoon has that very long period for a special, clean session at the reefs.
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.
