The Lowdown
G’day, I’m Rusty, and here’s how the next couple of weeks are shaping up for your local stretch.
We’ve got a bit of a slow start, but the wait’s worth it. Coronation Beach is the only spot firing, and it’s a beach and reef setup that’s consistent and beginner-friendly for those smaller days. The water’s sitting at 68.7°, which is pretty average for the time of year, so no need to dig out the thickest rubber just yet.
The first real action kicks off Tuesday the 21st, but it’s marginal with a 4.3ft SW swell and a cross-off ESE breeze. The energy’s moderate at 726, but it’s not the cleanest. Wednesday the 22nd is where we start seeing some life. Morning brings a 5.2ft SW groundswell (13-second period, which is nice and long) and a clean offshore ESE breeze at 15.5 mph. The energy jumps to 796, and the conditions are looking very good for a solid session. The afternoon sees the swell bump to 5.9ft, but the wind shifts cross-off, and the energy surges to 2045, so it’s still got some punch.
Thursday the 23rd is the first standout. Morning has a 5.9ft SW swell with a 14-second period and a clean offshore ENE breeze blowing at 21.7 mph. The energy’s strong at 1402, and it’s described as excellent for experienced surfers. The afternoon stays clean with a 5.6ft SW swell, offshore ESE breeze, and energy at 1196. This is the pick of the first week—quality waves, good wind, and a long period that’ll shape up nicely on the reef.
Friday the 24th drops off a bit. The morning’s poor with a 3.9ft SW swell and cross-off wind, barely 495 energy. The afternoon improves with a 3.6ft SW swell, offshore E breeze, and clean conditions, but it’s nothing to get excited about.
Saturday the 25th is a write-off in the morning—3.6ft SW swell, cross-off NE wind, 413 energy, and poor. The afternoon has a 3.3ft SW swell with an offshore E breeze at 6.2 mph, clean but small.
Sunday the 26th is grim. Morning has a 2.3ft SW swell with a 15-second period, but the cross-off NNE wind and 445 energy don’t save it. The afternoon turns onshore from the west, with a 2.6ft, 16-second swell—energy at 518—but it’s marginal.
Monday the 27th picks up again. A 5.6ft SW groundswell (14 seconds) with light north cross-shore breeze and energy at 1180. It’s clean but a bit cross—still, there’s potential.
Tuesday the 28th is the second standout. Morning has a 5.9ft SW swell, 15-second period, and a gentle offshore E breeze at 9.3 mph. Energy’s strong at 1401, and it’s excellent for experienced surfers. The afternoon’s a bit messy with a cross S wind, but the morning session is pure gold.
Wednesday the 29th offers a glassy morning. A 3.9ft SW swell, 13-second period, ENE breeze at 3.1 mph, and energy at 846. The glassy conditions make it a treat for a relaxed paddle.
Thursday the 30th and Friday the 31st get choppy. Thursday’s washed out with onshore westerlies and rain, 3.0ft swell, poor. Friday the 31st morning improves with a 4.9ft WSW swell, cross-off SE breeze at 15.5 mph, and energy at 1647—clean but marginal. The afternoon sees a bigger 7.9ft WSW swell, 17-second period, and energy at 3037, but the cross S wind churns it up.
Saturday the 1st of August is another standout. Morning has a 6.2ft WSW swell, 14-second period, and a clean cross-off SSE breeze at 9.3 mph. Energy’s solid at 1447, and it’s excellent for experienced surfers. The afternoon stays clean with a 5.9ft SW swell and 1231 energy.
Sunday the 2nd of August is the best on offer. Morning delivers a 6.6ft SW groundswell, 15-second period, and a gentle offshore ENE breeze at 9.3 mph. Energy’s strong at 1718, and it’s excellent. The afternoon goes off with a 7.5ft SW swell, 17-second period, and a light NE breeze at 3.1 mph. Energy’s 2981, and conditions are clean. This is the session to circle.
From Monday the 3rd, it gets messy. A 9.8ft SW swell, 18-second period, but onshore westerlies and rain make it poor—kite surfers might love it, but paddle surfers should stay home. The energy’s enormous at 6264, but the wind ruins it.
The run from the 4th to the 5th of August stays rough

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.
