The Lowdown
G’day, it’s Rusty. Let’s talk Coronation Beach in feet and miles per hour – the waves don’t care what unit you use, as long as you’re out there.
The pattern is a long run of southwest groundswell, with some cracking windows for the experienced crew, and a few days better left to the kites.
Water temp is 68°, which is a bit cooler than average, so suit up.
Monday the 27th kicks off with 8ft southwest swell at 14 seconds, and an easterly offshore breeze – clean, solid, proper. Combined energy is 1977 (moderate). Too big for grommets, but for anyone with a few seasons behind them, it’s a goer. The afternoon goes cross-off with a little texture.
Tuesday the 28th morning is a standout: 7ft southwest, period up to 15 seconds, and the easterly offshore holds (combined energy 1665). Smooth, lined-up sets. The afternoon stays clean with lighter wind.
Wednesday the 29th morning is messy with a 30 mph northeast cross-off, but the afternoon bounces back: 6ft southwest at 17 seconds, clean with a light offshore (combined energy 2752). Long-period groundswell doing its thing.
Thursday the 30th and Friday the 31st are average – small swell, cross-shore chop. Friday morning has a glassy moment with 6ft at 17 seconds (1858 energy), but the north wind leaves it a bit shifty.
Saturday the 1st of August has 7 to 8ft southwest, but the wind is cross-shore to cross-off and gusty – 30 mph in the afternoon (3367 energy). Not clean enough to call a winner. Sunday the 2nd morning locks in with 8ft at 14 seconds and a solid offshore (2024 energy). That’s a good session for experienced surfers.
Monday the 3rd offers 6ft southwest at 14 seconds with a light cross-off – clean but not big. Tuesday the 4th is the sleeper: 6ft at 19 seconds, glassy, combined energy 2666. That’s long-period groundswell, perfect for the reef and point – waves with real shape and power. A genuine standout for those who know what they’re doing.
Wednesday the 5th to Friday the 7th sees the swell building: 8ft to 10ft southwest, periods 16-17 seconds. Winds are mostly cross-shore, but Thursday the 6th morning has a cross-off breeze and 10ft at 17 seconds (energy 5068). That’s big, raw, and only for experts.
Saturday the 8th is a mess: 10ft southwest with 35 mph southwest cross-onshore – lumpy, blown-out, leave it for the kite surfers.
Sunday the 9th afternoon is enormous: 13ft southwest at 15 seconds, combined energy 11337, with a clean cross-off. Big-wave territory only. Monday the 10th and Tuesday the 11th hold around 12ft southwest, period 15-17 seconds, with clean offshore to cross-off winds (energy 5600+). These are serious, heavy days.
Crowds can show at Coronation Beach on the good days, so be early. This spot is consistent, so the flat spells are short. Pick your windows, and you’ll score.
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.
