Updates in  hr  min  s Forecast update imminent

Well, grab a coffee, 'cause for Coxos this stretch is a real tough one. The whole 16-day window is a flat spell for paddle surfing with the swell mostly tiny—generally under 3ft—and almost no recommended sessions due to poor conditions or marginal tides. The first solid wave energy shows up on Thursday July 10th with moderate levels (101 to 113 combined energy), but the swell is weak, only 2ft from the WNW, period around 9 seconds. Winds are offshore from the NW, so the surface might look okay, but the waves just don’t have the push. There is a gap of almost no action through the first week and a half, with just a few marginal calls. The only standout worth noting comes on Sunday morning, July 19th. It’s a long way out, so treat this as promising but not locked in. We see a jump in swell to 4ft from the west, period 12 seconds—that’s a solid groundswell—with offshore light breeze from the WNW. The combined wave energy surges to 495, which is strong, and the direction is a good match for the break's optimum NNW. However, that longer period could make things a bit straight at times, but with clean winds it might offer some fun, powerful sets. Still, it’s not enough to call a full green light. The rest of the window is mostly poor, with onshore wind and small surf. Honestly, for Coxos, it’s one of those flat runs that can happen. Keep an eye on that July 19th morning, but don’t hold your breath.

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.
