The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, let’s have a look at what’s on offer.
Right off the bat, we’ve got a long stretch of tricky conditions, but the big news is a massive pulse of south-west groundswell hitting Coronation Beach. The water temp is sitting at 68.2°, which is pretty much normal for this time of year, nothing wild there.
The first few days are a write-off. Thursday the 6th and Friday the 7th are messy with onshore winds and rain, not worth paddling out for. Saturday the 8th is even worse – strong breeze from the south-west at 25 mph, with lumpy, cross-onshore chop. Forget it.
Sunday the 9th is a total turnaround. We’re looking at a solid 10 ft south-west groundswell with a very long period of 17 seconds, and the wind is light offshore from the east-southeast. That’s clean, glassy conditions. The combined wave energy is massive (7635), but this is big, powerful swell. At 10 ft, this is only for experienced surfers. The long period means it’ll hold up well and wrap in cleanly – this is the standout of the whole forecast. Expect crowds to be possible.
Monday the 10th and Tuesday the 11th see the swell building even further. Tuesday morning pumps with a 15 ft swell from the south-west, a 18-second period, and a clean cross-offshore breeze from the south-southeast. The energy reading is extreme (13643). That said, this is huge – 15 ft is only for experts, and it’s pushing the limits of what this beach-and-reef setup can handle.
Wednesday the 12th and Thursday the 13th settle back to 10 ft, with clean offshore winds again. This is still solid, powerful swell, and the 16-second period keeps it quality. Excellent for experienced surfers, but still a handful for anyone else.
The second week drops off a bit. From Saturday the 15th, the swell eases to 6-7 ft with shorter periods and more cross-onshore wind. There’s a brief window on Monday the 17th morning with 8 ft and a light cross-offshore breeze from the east-northeast – that’ll be clean and fun for experienced surfers. After that, we’re back into marginal, onshore conditions through to the 21st.
The only real standout here is Sunday the 9th – clean, powerful, and long-period groundswell. If you’re an expert, that’s the one. The Tuesday the 11th session is for the brave and the very skilled. Otherwise, it’s a waiting game.

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.
