The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it for Coronation Beach.
We’ve got a patchy start to the forecast period, but the real story is a massive, powerful swell that’s set to arrive in the second week. For the first week or so, it’s a bit of a mixed bag with some clean windows, but you’ll have to pick your moments. The water temp is sitting at 68.7°, which is pretty much bang on average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The first real action kicks off on Wednesday, July 22nd. The morning is looking clean with a 5.2ft SW swell and a 13-second period, pushed by a solid offshore breeze from the ESE at 12 mph. The wave energy is moderate at 796, and conditions are sounding good. The afternoon builds to 5.9ft with the same SW direction, period easing to 13 seconds, and the energy jumps to 2045, which is a solid step up. The wind swings to a cross-offshore, but the surf is still clean. This is a decent day for a session.
Thursday, July 23rd, is a standout. The morning sees a 5.9ft SW swell with a 14-second period and a fresh offshore breeze from the ENE at 22 mph. The energy is strong at 1402. The afternoon is even better: the wind drops to 12 mph from the ESE, still offshore, with a 5.6ft SW swell and 14-second period. The energy is 1196, and the conditions are described as excellent for experienced surfers. This is a solid day for the more advanced crew.
After that, the surf drops off. Friday, July 24th, sees a smaller 3.6ft to 3.9ft SW swell, but the afternoon has a gentle offshore breeze that will keep it clean for a fun, smaller wave session. Saturday, July 25th, is similar, with a 3.3ft SW swell, but the afternoon glass-off with the ENE wind dropping to 3 mph is a nice window for a longboard.
Sunday, July 26th, is a write-off with a weak 2.3ft to 3.0ft SW swell, a very long 16-second period, and poor cross-shore winds. The energy is weak at 445 to 576. Not worth the paddle.
Now, the next real highlight comes on Monday, July 27th. The morning has a 6.2ft SW swell with a 14-second period and a cross-offshore breeze from the ESE at 16 mph. The energy is strong at 1463. The afternoon is the pick: a 5.9ft SW swell, 14-second period, and a gentle cross-offshore breeze from the SE at 9 mph. The energy is 1233, and it’s marked as excellent for experienced surfers. This is a beauty.
Tuesday, July 28th, is also a strong day. The morning has a 5.6ft SW swell, 15-second period, and a fresh offshore breeze from the ENE. The energy is 1298. The afternoon is excellent again, with a 5.2ft SW swell, 14-second period, and a moderate offshore wind from the E at 12 mph. The energy is 1351. The surf is strong and clean.
The end of the first week and into the second week drops off again. Wednesday, July 29th, has a long-period 3.6ft SW swell (19 seconds) in the morning, but the afternoon is a small 3.0ft SW swell with a gentle offshore breeze. The energy is moderate. Thursday, July 30th, is small and weak. Friday, July 31st, sees a pulse of 5.2ft WSW swell with a 16-second period in the morning, but the afternoon is a standout with a light breeze and clean conditions, marked as excellent for experienced surfers.
Now, the big one. The period from August 3rd to August 5th is where it gets serious. Monday, August 3rd, delivers a massive 11.5ft SW swell with a 17-second period in the morning. The energy is a huge 6633, which is very strong. The wind is a cross-off from the NE at 25 mph. The afternoon sees a 9.8ft SW swell, 16-second period, and 5210 energy. This is a very powerful, long-period groundswell. At this size, it’s only for experts. The wave energy is extreme.
Tuesday, August 4th, is the peak of the swell. The morning has a 9.8ft WSW swell with a 15-second period, and by the afternoon it jumps to a 13.1ft WSW swell with a massive 20-second period. The energy is a staggering 11907. The wind is light and onshore from the WNW at 6 mph. This is a monumental, very long-period swell. The sheer size and power mean it’s strictly for the most experienced big-wave surfers. The point and reef setup at Coronation might handle this better, but beach breaks will be a washing machine.
Wednesday, August 5th, is still pumping but the

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.
