Table - best surf conditions forecast for Coronation Beach over the next 16 days.
Alright, let’s talk this out in feet and old-school terms. Coronation Beach is a full-on exposed beach and reef setup, and it’s taking a beating from the south-west for most of the period. Monday morning kicks it off with 8 feet of SW groundswell, 18-second period, and the energy is absolutely pumping at (4113). That’s expert only – you’ll want a step-up and your wits about you. Wind is offshore from the ESE at 12 mph, so it’s clean as a whistle. Water temp is about where you’d expect for winter, nothing wild. Monday morning is the standout – big, clean, and heavy.
Monday afternoon drops to 8 feet, 16 seconds, with a cross-off from the SSE at 12 mph. Clean enough, but not as crisp. Tuesday morning is 6 feet, 15 seconds, cross-off from the NE at 16 mph, and the energy falls to (1589). Tuesday afternoon is better – 6 feet, 15 seconds, with a gentle offshore from the ENE at 9 mph. That groundswell will wrap in clean. Wednesday is 5 feet, 14 seconds, but the morning cross-off from the NNE at 19 mph will chop it up, and the afternoon has onshore wind, so skip it.
Thursday and Friday are poor – cross-onshore winds, rain, and thunderstorms. Saturday the 18th sees a 10-foot SW swell building, but it’s cross-onshore in the morning and messy. Saturday afternoon has 10 feet, 16 seconds, with a gentle cross-shore SSW breeze at 9 mph, and the energy jumps to (4705). It’s still dicey, but for the brave, it’s the best of a rough day. Sunday the 19th is glassy in the morning – 8 feet, 15 seconds, with an east wind at 3 mph and energy at (2725). That’s a beautiful, clean session for the experienced crowd.
From Monday the 20th through Thursday the 24th, it’s all bad – strong winds, heavy rain, lumpy conditions. There’s a 10-foot pulse on Monday afternoon but with a 25 mph WSW onshore, it’s just messy and blown out. That’s kite territory. Friday the 24th is another write-off.
Things start to look up on Saturday the 25th – 6 feet, 14 seconds, with a light cross-off from the ESE at 3 mph. Clean and surfable. Sunday the 26th is small – 4 feet, glassy in the morning from a light NE breeze, but the energy is weak (451). Fun for a grovel. Monday the 27th shows 3 feet, 17-second period, offshore from the east at 16 mph, energy at (559) – weak but clean for a longboard. Tuesday the 28th goes big again – 10 feet, 14 seconds, cross-off from the ENE at 22 mph – clean for the big-wave crew but it’s way out there, over a week away.
The standout is Monday morning the 13th – 8 feet, clean, powerful, and glassy. That’s the one.

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.
