The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's cookin' over the next couple weeks at Coronation Beach.

First up, we've got a solid run of surf comin' through, but it's a bit of a mixed bag with the winds. The water temp is sittin' right about average for this time of year at 68°F, so nothin' to write home about there.

We start off this Sunday, September 13th, with a decent 6ft swell out of the SW. That's got some serious grunt behind it with a combined energy of 1533 (moderate wave energy), and a nice long 14-second period, meaning those waves are gonna have some push. But the wind is a cross-on from the SSW at 9 mph, so it's gonna be a bit chopped up and not all that clean. Not the best first day.

Monday the 14th sees the swell bumpin' up to 7ft, still a SW groundswell with a 15-second period. The mornin' is where it's at, with a clean, cross-off breeze from the SSE at 12 mph. That's your best bet in the first few days – clean lines, decent size. The afternoon looks to get messy with a fresh cross-shore.

Tuesday and Wednesday keep the swell pumpin' in the 5ft to 8ft range, but the winds are a bit of a letdown, mostly cross or cross-on, keepin' things lumpy. Thursday the 17th and Friday the 18th things start to drop off, and the winds go onshore, so those days are proper write-offs. Don't bother paddlin' out.

Now, hold onto your board, because the real standout window opens up on Sunday, September 20th. The morning session is gonna be beautiful. We've got a 6ft SW swell, combined energy of 1109 (moderate wave energy), and with a 13-second period it's got a nice shape. The wind is a clean offshore breeze from the East at 12 mph. That’s the kind of wind that’ll have Coronation glassin' off. The water will be clean, the lines will be clean. This is your top pick for the whole forecast. The only catch is that this spot can get *sometimes* busy, but with conditions like that, you'll want to be there early.

After that standout Sunday mornin', the middle of the next week (21st to 25th September) is just a run of solid surf in the 6ft to 7ft range, but the winds are mostly cross or cross-on, so the quality drops right back off. Not worth changin' your plans for.

For the final weekend, Saturday the 26th has a bit of size with an 8ft swell, but that's startin' to get big for the average punter, combined energy of 3062 (moderate wave energy), and the wind is gonna be a fresh cross-shore. Definitely a day for the experienced crew only. Sunday the 27th is a write-off with a near gale howlin' and light rain. The very end of the run, on the 28th and 29th, the swell drops right away to barely 4ft.

So to wrap it up: the surf is pretty consistent overall, but quality is the issue. Don't get excited about the first week. Your one true standout is the morning of Sunday, September 20th. Clean offshore, shoulder-high swell. Don't miss it. Later windows are promising but less certain.

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.
