The Lowdown
Alright, mate, Rusty here. Let's get into it.
We're looking at a solid, extended run of swell at Coronation Beach. The setup is a consistent beach and reef break, exposed to the dominant SW swell direction, which is exactly what it's tuned for. Water temp is sitting at 68°, which is basically average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The real standout is Sunday the 30th morning. The stars line up nicely. We've got a clean 7 ft SW groundswell rolling in with a solid 18-second period, meaning real energy and long, powerful lines. The wind is light and offshore from the ESE, so the surface will be clean and glassy. The combined swell energy is a meaty 3024—moderate to strong, but with the right conditions. This is the pick of the window for experienced surfers, as the size and power will be too much for most beginners. There's potential for crowds, so get in early.
The next best window falls on Tuesday the 8th of September morning. Another clean, offshore morning with ESE winds under 6 mph, and an 8 ft SW groundswell at 17 seconds. This is expert territory at 8 ft, but the conditions will be excellent. Combined energy is a strong 3688. This is a promising call, but it's further out, so keep an eye on the forecasts.
The lead-up has some messy days. Tuesday the 25th of August afternoon is a washout with a marginal 5 ft swell and onshore winds. Wednesday the 26th is a write-off with 10 ft of lumpy, cross-onshore junk. Thursday the 27th afternoon cleans up a bit with a 10 ft SW swell and clean cross-off winds, but it's still a challenging, big day with a fresh breeze. Friday the 28th and Saturday the 29th offer smaller, cleaner windows but nothing to get excited about.
After Sunday the 30th, Monday the 31st and Tuesday the 1st of September are back to cross-shore chop. The real clean-up comes again from Tuesday the 8th of September morning, with that offshore gem. The 9th of September morning also has a decent 6 ft SW swell with light offshore winds, offering a solid follow-up session.
So, grab Sunday the 30th morning, and keep Tuesday the 8th of September on your radar. It's going to be a run of good swell, but the wind is the key.
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.
