The Lowdown

G'day, it's Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the table for Coronation Beach over the next couple of weeks.

Right off the bat, we've got a solid pulse of SW swell rolling in, but the conditions are a bit of a mixed bag. The water temp is sitting at 68°, which is pretty much spot on average for this time of year, so no surprises there.

The first real chance to get wet kicks off on Sunday the 6th of September. It's a bit of a rough start, though. We've got a hefty 10 ft SW groundswell with a 13-second period, and the combined energy is a strong 3091. The wind is a fresh 19 mph SSE cross-off, which should keep the faces reasonably clean, but the data flags it as marginal. The swell is big enough to be pushing into experienced territory, and the crowds are possible here. Sunday afternoon is much the same, with a slightly stronger 22 mph wind keeping things clean but on the edge.

Monday the 7th of September sees the swell holding at 10 ft, but the period jumps to 17 seconds – that's a proper groundswell with heaps of energy (4533). The morning wind is a 16 mph SE cross-off, making for clean waves, but it's still a big, powerful swell best left to the experts. The afternoon turns lumpy as the wind swings S at 22 mph, creating a cross-shore chop.

Tuesday the 8th of September, the swell drops a touch to 7 ft in the morning, with a 16-second period and a fresh 19 mph SE cross-off. The wave energy is still strong at 2580. It's still on the bigger side, but the morning is clean. The afternoon is similar but with more cloud.

Now, Wednesday the 9th of September is where it starts to look interesting. The swell is 7 ft with a 16-second period, and the wind is 22 mph from the E – true offshore. The energy is 2285. The report says "fresh offshore and clean," which has my heart beating a little faster. The morning session should be firing, with clean, lined-up waves. The afternoon drops to 7 ft, but the wind is still offshore from the ESE, so it's a solid day.

But the standout, the one you want to circle on the calendar, is Thursday the 10th of September. The swell drops to 5 ft, but the period is still a solid 15 seconds, and the wind is a gentle 9 mph from the ENE – true offshore. The combined energy is 1157 (moderate), and the report calls it "excellent surf conditions for experienced surfers." This is the pick of the first week. The offshore breeze will have those SW lines peeling beautifully. The afternoon is a write-off with a cross-shore wind, so make the most of the morning.

We then hit a bit of a lull. Friday the 11th and Saturday the 12th of September see the swell drop and onshore winds creep in, making for messy, marginal conditions. The size is below 7 ft, but the wind is from the W, so it's not worth paddling out for.

Sunday the 13th of September brings the swell back up to 6 ft with a 14-second period, but it's a cross-shore wind from the S, creating a chop. It's there, but it's not the best.

Looking further out, the second week has a few promising signs. The swell picks up again, but the wind becomes more of a factor. The real standout in the second week is Wednesday the 16th of September. The swell is 6 ft with a 16-second period, and the wind is a light 6 mph from the ESE, a cross-off breeze. The energy is 1970, and the report says "excellent surf conditions for experienced surfers." It's a bit of a gamble this far out, but the ingredients are there for another excellent morning.

After that, the swell gets big again. Thursday the 17th of September sees 10 ft from the WSW, but the wind is a fresh 22 mph cross-on, making for lumpy, poor conditions. This setup is looking more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. Friday the 18th of September is even bigger, with 13 ft onshore, pumping energy (7814), but again, the wind is onshore and messy. The weekend of the 19th and 20th of September holds 12 ft SW swell, but the wind is fickle, switching between cross-on and onshore, making it a tough call. It's a big, powerful swell, but you'll need a forgiving spot and a lot of luck.

The final call? The best bet is the morning of Thursday the 10th of September for clean, offshore conditions on a solid SW groundswell. For the second week, keep an eye on Wednesday the 16th of September for another promising window.

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.
