The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s cooking at Coronation Beach.
This is a solid stretch of sand and reef that’s exposed to the south-west, so it’s catching most of what’s on the way. The water’s hanging around 68°, which is just a shade cooler than normal for this time of year – nothing wild, just a touch crisp.
We’ve got a bit of a slow start, but the real action kicks off on Wednesday the 5th. The morning looks clean with a light offshore breeze from the SE, tidying up a 7ft SW groundswell. The energy is strong (2297), and with that period sitting at 16 seconds, it’s got some real grunt. This is a good one for experienced surfers – the waves will have shape, and those longer gaps between sets make paddling out a bit easier. The standout here is Wednesday morning – that’s your window.
Thursday the 6th is a bit of a mixed bag. The morning sees a 10ft SW swell with a massive energy reading (4209), but the wind is light and cross-shore, so it’ll be a bit lumpy. That’s pushing into expert territory, as it’s well over 8ft.
Looking further ahead, Sunday the 9th is a real beauty if you’ve got the skills. The morning brings a clean 10ft SW swell with a 16-second period, and a solid offshore ESE wind at 12 mph. The energy is through the roof (5300), and the conditions are set up for exceptional surf. This is a big day – only for the experienced crew.
The following week has some serious size. Tuesday the 11th afternoon sees a 15ft SW swell, but the finder notes it’s predicted to be too big for this break. That’s a kite-surfing day, not a paddle day. The week after that, Tuesday the 18th morning is worth a mention. The wind goes glassy, and you’ve got a 10ft SW groundswell with a 17-second period. The energy is strong (4777), and with glassy conditions, it’s going to be clean and powerful. Another one for the experts.
There’s a bit of a lull around the 14th and 15th, with dropped-off sizes and higher winds, but the overall pattern is one of solid, consistent SW groundswell. Crowds are possible here, especially on the clear, clean mornings, so get in early.
Rusty, signing off.

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.
