The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s cooking for our spot over the next couple of weeks. It’s a bit of a slow start, but there are some proper gems if you’re patient.
The first few days are a bust. We’ve got some decent sized groundswell – 2ft to 2ft from the southwest, with a 14-second period – but the southerly winds are just tearing it up. Water temp is around 68°, right where it should be for this time of year, so no drama there.
The first real window is Sunday, September 20th. The morning at Coronation Beach is the one. Swell drops a little to 2ft from the southwest, but the real story is the light SSE cross-offshore wind. That’ll put a glassy top on the waves. The combined energy is moderate at 854, but with clean conditions and that consistent groundswell, you’ll get nice, lined-up sets. It’s a consistent beach and reef setup, so waves are a sure thing, and with crowds being only sometimes an issue, you should have plenty of room to pick your peaks.
Further down the line, the real magic happens. After a week of messy, onshore winds, the forecast turns a corner from Saturday, September 26th through to Monday the 28th. That Saturday morning is a beast: a solid 3ft SW groundswell with a very long 17-second period, paired with a fresh offshore easterly. That’s big, powerful, and clean – expert level only. The combined energy is a massive 4438, so you know there’s serious juice in the water. The offshore wind sticks around right through to Monday, with the swell easing from 3ft down to about 2ft. Sunday afternoon gets a special mention: clean 2ft waves with light offshore wind, labeled as excellent for experienced surfers. That whole stretch is the best of the forecast.
Because that swell is so long-period, it’ll stand up straighter on the beach breaks. The reefs and points will handle it better, giving you those longer, wrapping rides. This spot is consistent, so you won’t be hunting.
First week, forget it. But mark your calendar for the 26th through the 29th. That’s the run of the forecast.
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.
