The Lowdown

Righto, let’s talk about Coronation Beach (Australia). This spot is a consistent beach and reef set-up that takes a good SW swell. The water temp is sitting at 69°, which is pretty much spot on for this time of year, nothing unusual there.

We start off with a bit of a dud on Wednesday the 2nd - there's 6ft SW swell but a cross-breeze and a moderate chop making it messy. The energy is solid though, reading 1443.

Now, Thursday the 3rd is where it gets good. The morning is glassy, zero wind, clean as a whistle. Swell is a healthy 7ft from the SW with a 14 second period, and the energy jumps to 1688. That’s the standout of the entire outlook for me. Absolutely pristine conditions for experienced surfers. The afternoon sees the wind swing cross-onshore and the size bumps to 8ft, but it gets a bit choppy.

Friday the 4th and Saturday the 5th are pretty ordinary – a lot of cross-onshore wind, and by Saturday afternoon a strong 28 mph onshore wind and rain makes it a complete washout.

Sunday the 6th brings a solid jump in size: 12ft on Sunday morning, but it's from the SSW with a moderate 12 second period. The wind is a strong cross-off, keeping it clean for experienced guys. Energy is huge at 7393. This is powerful, heavy surf – for experts only. Monday the 7th stays big with 10ft SW swell and a long 17 second period, with clean cross-off breezes. That long period will make it break with real punch at the reef.

Tuesday the 8th is a good call for the experienced crew – 7ft SW swell, 15 second period, and a moderate offshore wind. That’s clean, lined-up, quality surf. Wednesday the 9th also offers offshore winds and a solid 7ft SW groundswell with a 17 second period, making for long, clean waves.

The following weekend (Saturday the 12th) shapes up nicely again. Morning has 8ft SW swell, 17 second period, light cross-off breeze, and excellent surf conditions. The energy is big at 3723. That’s another top pick.

After that, the second week sees the swell drop off and the wind turns more cross or onshore. By Wednesday the 16th, there’s a little pulse of offshore wind with 5ft SW swell, but it’s low energy (874) and fading. From Thursday the 17th onward, it’s small and choppy, not worth a serious paddle.

Honestly, the absolute best on offer is Thursday morning the 3rd – glassy, clean, solid swell. The runner-up is Saturday morning the 12th, which has excellent conditions and a beautiful SW groundswell.

Stay safe out there.

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.
