Table - best surf conditions forecast for Coxos over the next 16 days.
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s coming for Coxos over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a pretty grim stretch. We’ve got a long gap with nothing worth paddling for. The first real chance of a wave doesn’t show up until Sunday the 19th, and even then it’s a bit of a gamble. Before that, from now through Saturday the 18th, it’s mostly tiny, weak swell with the wind blowing on it or cross-onshore, making a mess. The combined energy is low, mostly under 100, and the wave heights are under 3 feet. Not worth getting wet for.
The first glimmer of hope comes on Sunday the 19th morning. We’ve got a pulse of swell from the NNW, around 7 feet, with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy jumps to 567, which is a solid moderate push. The wind is light from the north, cross-onshore, but light enough that it might not ruin it completely. This is a reef break, so that swell will wrap in, but the period is short, so it won’t be the cleanest. Still, for Coxos, this is the best we’ve got. The water temp is 19°, which is about average for this time of year.
Monday the 20th keeps the size up, around 7 feet from the NNW, but the wind gets stronger and more on it, making it choppy. The energy is still high, 651, but the conditions are messy. After that, the swell drops off and the wind stays strong, so it’s not looking good.
There’s a small window on Friday the 24th morning when the wind goes offshore from the SE, light, and the swell is 4 feet from the NNW. The period is short, only 6 seconds, so it’ll be weak and crumbly, but it’ll be clean. The energy is low, 132, so it’s not a standout, just a brief moment of clean conditions.
Overall, the only real standout is Sunday the 19th morning. It’s not perfect, but it’s the best we’ve got. The rest of the time, the wind is just too messy or the swell is too small. Keep an eye on it, but don’t get your hopes up.
Rusty.

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