The Lowdown
Righto, this is Rusty. Let’s talk about what’s cooking at Coronation Beach for the next couple of weeks.
There’s a bit of a slow start, but from Sunday the 6th, things start to fire. The real standout is gonna be Monday the 7th. Clean, solid groundswell from the southwest, with a very long 17-second period, pushing in around 10 feet. The offshore wind is gonna be mint, and the combined energy is a massive 4710 (strong). That’s expert territory, with size over 8 feet, so if you’re not up to it, stay on the sand. Water temp is a warm 68°, which is about average for the season.
Next up, Tuesday the 8th is a beauty. The whole day looks clean with a cross-offshore breeze. The swell holds around 8 to 8 feet, still from the southwest, with a 16 to 17-second period. The afternoon combined energy is 3515 (strong). That’s a solid day for the experienced crew.
On Wednesday the 9th, the size drops a bit, but the wind turns offshore, and the swell is still a quality 8 feet with 16-second period. The afternoon is even better, with a moderate offshore wind and clean conditions. Total energy is 2635 (strong). This is a great session.
The week after, on Tuesday the 15th, we get another cracker. The afternoon has a gentle offshore wind, swell dropping to 6 feet from the southwest, with a 14-second period. Combined energy is 1653 (moderate). Clean, glassy lines, perfect for the advanced surfers.
Now, about crowds here: Coronation Beach can get crowded sometimes, so expect a few heads out on the Monday and Tuesday. It’s a consistent spot, exposed to the southwest swell, which is exactly what we’ve got.
The break is a beach and reef setup. With that long-period groundswell (over 15 seconds), the waves will have plenty of punch and can break a bit straight on the beach. The reef sections will handle it better, giving you a better shape. Paddling out will be easier, with longer lulls between sets.
For the rest of the period, there’s some cross-on and onshore junk, especially around the 11th to the 13th, and then again from the 17th. The 17th and 18th are a write-off, with strong cross-onshore winds and messy surf. The 19th has a big 10-foot swell but with onshore wind, so it’s a bit of a slog.
Best bets: Monday the 7th and Tuesday the 8th, with Wednesday the 9th and Tuesday the 15th as solid backups. Get on it while it’s clean.
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.
