The Lowdown

G’day, I’m Rusty, and I’ve been staring at the charts for Coronation Beach. This is a beach and reef setup that’s consistent and exposed to the SW swell. The water’s sitting at 68°, which is about average for the time of year, so nothing unusual there.

Right now, we’ve got a solid run of swell coming through, but the wind is going to be a bit of a handful for the first few days. Tuesday afternoon, the 4th of August, kicks off with a 8ft SW swell at 18 seconds – that’s a long-period groundswell packing strong energy (3304). Problem is, the wind is a cross-shore from the SSW at 12 mph, making it messy. Not the best start.

Wednesday morning, the 5th, is where it starts to get interesting. You’ve got a 7ft SW swell at 16 seconds with a light SE breeze at 6 mph, blowing cross-offshore. That’s clean, and the combined energy is moderate (2160). For experienced surfers, this is a real treat. The afternoon turns choppy again with the wind swinging S at 12 mph, so the morning is your window.

Thursday morning, the 6th, pushes up to 10ft from the SW at 16 seconds, but the wind is light cross-onshore from the SW at 3 mph. That’s big, borderline expert territory – over 8ft. The energy is strong (4209), but the light onshore bumps it up a bit. It’s rideable if you’ve got the chops.

Friday and Saturday, the 7th and 8th, get knocked around by strong winds. Friday morning has a 8ft SW swell with light cross-onshore wind, but it’s cloudy and the quality drops. Saturday is a write-off – 25 mph SSW cross-shore winds on the 8th with 10ft swell, just a mess. Not worth it.

Then we hit the real standouts. Sunday morning, the 9th of August, is exceptional. An 12ft SW swell at 17 seconds, with a light ESE cross-offshore breeze at 6 mph. The energy is very strong (7635), and it’s clean. This is for expert surfers only – it’s big, powerful, and the long period will make it wall up. If you’re a pro, this is the session.

Monday morning, the 10th, drops back to 8ft SW at 16 seconds, with light SE cross-offshore wind. Clean and excellent for experienced surfers – a nice follow-up. But the absolute best of the whole run comes on Tuesday, the 11th of August. An 12ft SW swell at 18 seconds, with a moderate ESE offshore wind at 16 mph. That’s a 7356 energy reading, exceptional conditions, and the offshore wind is going to groom it into perfection. Another expert-only day, but it’s the standout.

The second week starts to fade. Wednesday the 12th has a 7ft SW swell with offshore wind – clean, for experienced surfers. Thursday the 13th bumps back to 10ft SW at 18 seconds with gentle offshore wind, good for experts. After that, from Friday the 14th onwards, the swell drops and the wind turns more onshore. Saturday the 15th has 6ft–6ft swell with cross-onshore wind, marginal. Sunday the 16th sees a 10ft spike but with onshore wind, messy. The last few days from the 17th to the 19th are poor to ugly, with onshore winds and choppy conditions. That’s it – two clear windows: the 9th and the 11th are your best bets.

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.
