The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the table for Coronation Beach.

Alright, so we’ve got a bit of a slow start here. The next few days are looking pretty marginal, so don't get your hopes up too high for the first week. The swell is coming from the southwest, which is exactly what Coronation wants to see, and the water temp is sitting at 69°, which is about average for this time of year. But the conditions are just not there to make the most of it.

Monday the 20th and Tuesday the 21st are a write-off. The swell is there, around 5 ft to 5 ft, but it’s a cross-off wind and the energy is just not organized. You’d be fighting it.

Wednesday the 22nd shows a bit of promise. The morning has a clean offshore breeze from the ESE at 15 mph, with a 5 ft SW swell. The energy is starting to ramp up. The afternoon stays clean with a cross-off, but honestly, it’s surfable, not memorable.

Thursday the 23rd is where we start to see something. The morning has a fresh offshore from the E at 19 mph, pushing into a 6 ft SW swell. The energy is really building. The afternoon is even better: a solid 6 ft, clean offshore, and the energy is pumping. This is the best of the first week. The wind is clean, the swell is solid, and it’s a good size for experienced surfers.

Friday the 24th and Saturday the 25th drop off. The swell drops to 4 ft and 3 ft, and the wind is a cross-off or gentle offshore. It’s not terrible, but it’s not worth the trip. Keep an eye on the glassy conditions on Sunday the 26th afternoon, but the swell is tiny at 3 ft.

Now, here’s the real deal. Things get interesting heading into the second week.

Monday the 27th morning is a standout. A 6 ft SW swell, with a clean cross-off wind. The energy is massive. This is a big, clean swell. The afternoon gets a bit of a cross-on wind, so get in early.

Tuesday the 28th morning is another cracker. A 7 ft SW swell, light offshore, and the energy is huge. This is groundswell with a long period of 16 seconds, meaning long, powerful lines. At 7 ft, it’s getting into the territory where only experts should be out. The afternoon is still good, but the wind swings cross-off.

Wednesday the 29th is a bit of a mixed bag. The morning has a cross-shore wind, and the afternoon gets a strong cross-on from the NW. It’s a mess.

Thursday the 30th through to Saturday the 1st of August is all poor. The wind is onshore or cross-on, and the swell is dropping. It’s a proper lull.

Now, for the big news. Monday the 3rd of August and Tuesday the 4th of August are the real gems. The swell is a very solid 12 ft from the WSW, with a very long period of 17 seconds. The energy is massive. This is expert-only territory. The morning of the 3rd is glassy – absolutely perfect conditions. The morning of the 4th is also glassy. The afternoons get a bit of a cross-on wind, but the mornings are world-class. These are the true standouts of the entire forecast. The long period (over 15 seconds) means the swell will be powerful and will wrap into the beach and reef setup, but it could be a bit too straight for the beach break. It’ll be best at the reef. Expect crowds because it’s consistent and the conditions are incredible.

So, to sum it up: the first week is a slow burn with a decent window on Thursday the 23rd. The second week gets serious, with the absolute best being the mornings of Monday the 3rd and Tuesday the 4th of August. That’s the one you want to be there for.

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.
