Table - best surf conditions forecast for Corvette over the next 16 days.
Right, let's have a look at what's on offer for Corvette. It’s a reef setup, and we’re looking at a pretty long stretch here, nearly three weeks. To be honest, the first week and a bit is grim. Monday the 13th through to Wednesday the 15th, we’ve got tiny, weak surf with poor conditions. Wind is hammering it, and the wave energy is just sad. You’d be better off staying home.
Things start to get interesting on Thursday the 16th. We see the swell bump up to 5ft from the SSW, with a period of 15 seconds. That’s a proper groundswell. It’s still a bit raw, with a cross-shore breeze, so it’ll be clean but with a little chop. This is where we start to see some potential.
The real standout, though, is Saturday the 18th. The swell drops slightly to 3ft, but the period stretches out to 18 seconds – that’s a very long period groundswell. Those sets will be well-spaced and powerful. The wind goes cross-offshore, which means clean, glassy faces. This is the pick of the entire forecast for Corvette. Get on it.
After that, Sunday the 19th has some size at 4ft but the wind turns a bit onshore, so it’s not as clean. Monday the 20th the swell bumps up again to 6ft, but with onshore wind and shorter period, it gets messy and drops off into the afternoon. From the 21st through the 24th, it’s a write-off with gale-force winds and poor surf. A full week of nothing, really.
Then, out of the blue, on Sunday the 26th, we get a little gem: 3ft from the SSW with a period of 18 seconds and fresh offshore wind. Clean, long lines. Then Monday the 27th shows a 6ft ESE swell with very light wind – that could be a fun one too, but it’s a long way off, so don’t lock it in.
The water temperature is sitting at 73°F, which is bang on average for this time of year. Nice and warm.
So, to sum it up: the first few days are a bust. The absolute best wave of the whole run is Saturday the 18th. That’s the one to circle. The second half of the run has a couple of promising days around the 26th and 27th, but treat those as a bonus if they come together.

Information about the Corvette Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Corvette provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Corvette can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Corvette 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 (Corvette) 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 Corvette 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.
