The Lowdown
G’day, I’m Rusty. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for Coronation Beach over the next couple of weeks. Things start off a bit slow, but there’s some serious power brewing later on.
Water temp is sitting at 68°, which is a bit colder than normal for this time of year, so you’ll want a decent wetsuit. The first solid window of surf kicks off Monday the 27th. A moderate offshore breeze from the ESE will be cleaning up a solid 8ft SW groundswell with a long period of 14 seconds. This is groundswell, so it’ll pack some punch, but with the offshore wind, it’s going to be well-shaped at this beach and reef setup. The combined swell energy is strong at 1977. This is a standout for experienced surfers—expect big, clean lines.
Tuesday the 28th keeps the run going with clean conditions and swell holding around 6ft to 6ft from the SW, periods still in the 14-15 second range. Offshore or clean cross-off winds will keep it tidy. The wave energy stays strong (1544), it’s all good fun for those who can handle it.
After that, we hit a bit of a lull with smaller, messier days through to Friday and Saturday, though Wednesday afternoon (29th) has a glassy moment with a long 17-second period and 4ft swell—a nice little breather for guys wanting to hop on a log.
Now, the big one comes on Friday the 7th of August. A monster 12ft SW groundswell with a 17-second period and offshore light winds from the east lock in what looks like exceptional conditions for experts only. Combined swell energy is 13516—that’s huge, powerful stuff. This is the real standout: big, clean, and raw. It’s for the experienced crew only; beginners, stay well clear. That Friday morning is the pick.
The weekend of the 8th and 9th sees the swell get even bigger—up to 16ft—but the wind swings onshore and cross-shore, making it lumpy and borderline dangerous. The waves are too big for the break and the wind ain’t helping. Skip it.
Monday the 10th of August though, a 13ft SW groundswell with glassy conditions and an 18-second period—another standout for experts. The combined energy is 9758, still extreme. If you’re skilled and looking for a clean, heavy session, that Monday morning is a gift.
Keep in mind, this spot can get crowded sometimes, so get in early for the best of it.

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.
