The Lowdown
Alright mates, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the table for Coronation Beach over the next couple of weeks.
First up, the water temp is sitting at 68°, which is about 2° cooler than what’s normal for this time of year. So, it’s a touch on the chilly side, but nothing too wild.
The coming week starts off a bit slow. Friday the 24th of July, we’ve got some 4ft SW groundswell rolling in with a 13-second period and a moderate energy (495). The morning is a write-off with a 19 mph cross-off breeze, but the arvo cleans right up with a light offshore from the ESE and 4ft of swell. It’s a small, clean wave for the beginners.
Saturday the 25th is a similar story – morning is blown out, but the afternoon glass-off with 3ft SW swell offers a few fun little shoulders. Sunday the 26th is flat and weak, with a long period 16-second swell that’s too small to do much with, and the wind turns onshore in the afternoon. Not your day.
Now, Monday the 27th sees a jump in size – 8ft of SW groundswell (14 seconds) and the energy jumps way up (2253). The wind is cross-off, but the surf quality is just marginal. It’s big and a bit lumpy. This one is for the experienced crew only.
The real standout of the first week is Tuesday the 28th. The morning has 6ft of clean SW groundswell with a 16 mph offshore breeze. The energy is solid (1450), and the conditions are described as excellent for experienced surfers. The arvo is just as good with a lighter cross-off wind. This is the pick of the week.
Wednesday the 29th drops a little but the afternoon session is a gem: 4ft of very long period SW groundswell (17 seconds), glassy cross-off wind, and excellent conditions for those who know what they’re doing. The long period will make it a bit better for the point setups, but Coronation is a beach and reef, so it might break a little straight. Still, a good session.
We hit a bit of a lull Thursday the 30th, but the arvo still manages a clean 5ft wave with light wind. Friday the 31st gets a bit messy with onshore winds, and the swell is big (6ft) but crossed up.
Now, if you’re looking for the big prize, you’ve got to wait. Sunday the 2nd of August is the absolute standout of the entire outlook. The morning brings 10ft of SW groundswell with an 18-second period – that’s a very long period groundswell with massive energy (6153). The wind is a clean offshore from the E at 12 mph. This is exceptional surf, but it’s for experts only. The wave will have heaps of power, and the long period will make it a bit tricky at the beach, but the reef sections should be cooking. The arvo goes cross-shore, so get in early.
The second week looks a bit more unstable. Swell stays in the 5ft to 7ft range, but the wind is often cross-shore or fresh. The mornings of the 5th and 6th of August offer some clean 5ft waves with light offshore breezes – good for a solid session without the crowds going mental.
The 8th of August sees another big pulse of 10ft WSW swell, but the period drops to 14 seconds, and the wind is cross-off. It’ll be big and powerful, but with that shorter period, it might be a bit more walled up. Still, a good one for the experienced.
Overall, the best bet is Tuesday the 28th of July for a solid, clean, fun day, and the absolute winner is Sunday the 2nd of August for the big, clean, powerful groundswell. Just remember, that one is for the experts only.
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.
