The Lowdown

G’day, Rusty here, and I’ve got a good long look at what’s coming for Coronation Beach. This is a beginner-plus friendly beach and reef setup, exposed to the SW, and it’s a consistent spot. The water temp is about average for the time of year, so nothing wild there.

The window kicks off Wednesday the 29th of July, with some solid energy. Wednesday morning sees a 5ft SW swell with a 14-second period, but that NE wind at 19 mph is a cross-off, and the combined energy is pumping at 1456 (moderate). It’s clean but only marginal. The real standout is Wednesday afternoon – a 6ft SW swell from a 17-second period, with a light 6 mph offshore wind from the east, and the energy jumps to 2752 (strong). That’s excellent for experienced surfers, and it’s clean. Thursday the 30th of July keeps it going: a 4ft SW swell with a 16-second period, and Thursday afternoon is glassy with a 3 mph WNW wind. Energy is 1069 (moderate), and it’s excellent for experienced surfers – super clean, perfect for a session.

Friday the 31st of July has a 6ft SW swell in the morning with a 17-second period, but the wind is light and cross, making it marginal. The afternoon gets a 6ft SW swell, but the wind turns cross-on, so it’s less appealing. Saturday the 1st of August sees a 7ft SW swell with a 15-second period, and the mornings are clean with a cross-off ESE wind at 9 mph – energy is 1958 (moderate), but still marginal. Sunday the 2nd of August has a 8ft SW swell in the morning, but the NE wind is fresh at 19 mph, making it marginal. The afternoon is the pick: a 7ft SW swell with a 14-second period, a light offshore from the east at 6 mph, and clean conditions – energy is 1401 (moderate), and it’s excellent for experienced surfers.

Now, the second week gets a bit patchy. Monday the 3rd of August has a 5ft SW swell, but the wind is cross-off and moderate, so it’s marginal. Tuesday the 4th of August has a 7ft SW swell with a 19-second period, but the wind is cross and moderate, making it marginal and a bit choppy. Wednesday the 5th of August is similar with a 7ft SW swell, but rain and cross winds keep it marginal. The real standout for the whole period is Thursday the 6th of August: a 10ft SW swell with a 16-second period, combined energy of 4107 (strong), and a light cross-off wind from the SSE at 9 mph. It’s clean and excellent for experienced surfers – this is the big one. Friday the 7th of August is also great: a 8ft SW swell with a 16-second period, and a light offshore from the ENE at 3 mph, making it clean and excellent for experienced surfers – energy is 2610 (strong).

After that, it turns ugly. Saturday the 8th of August through Monday the 10th of August is a write-off: strong onshore winds, rain, and lumpy conditions. The swell gets big (up to 13ft) but it’s poor, with energy hitting 6957 (very strong) – just a mess. Tuesday the 11th and Wednesday the 12th of August stay poor with onshore winds and rain. Then, on Thursday the 13th of August, the last day of the forecast, we get a gem: a 13ft SW swell with a 16-second period, combined energy of 7628 (very strong), and a light cross-off wind from the SSE at 6 mph. It’s exceptional for expert surfers only – that’s the biggest, cleanest swell of the whole run, but you’ll need to be a gun.

Best bet: head out Thursday the 6th of August afternoon for the best mix of size and cleanliness, or Thursday the 13th of August morning if you’re an expert. Crowds are possible, as it’s a consistent spot, so get there early.

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.
