Zaga (Koroni) Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, grab your board, but maybe leave it in the car for a while. It’s shaping up to be a proper flat spell for the foreseeable future. I’m looking at the next 16 days from the 10th through the 25th, and honestly, it’s a story of nothing but clean, glassy, and empty conditions – but no waves to speak of. We’re talking a total blank run for surf.

I’m parked at Zaga (Koroni) for this one, a sheltered beach and point setup. The water temp is sitting right about average for this time of year, which is a bit of a silver lining for a paddle, but that’s about all it’s good for.

The first few days, from the 10th through the 12th, are dead flat – no swell at all. The winds are light and mostly offshore or cross-offshore, so the ocean is as clean as a whistle, but there’s just nothing breaking. Then, on Wednesday the 12th morning, we see a whisper of a wave – a paltry 0.3ft of swell from the southeast with a 4-second period and weak energy (1). It’s basically a ripple, and not worth getting wet for.

We stay in this holding pattern through the 15th. Then, on Sunday the 16th, there’s a tiny uptick. The morning shows a tiny 0.7ft from the SSW with a 3-second period and still weak energy (1). The afternoon bumps up a touch to a knee-high 1ft from the same direction, with slightly more energy (4), but again, the period is a dismal 3 seconds. This is pure windslop, not surf. The wind shifts to a cross-shore moderate breeze, so the surface gets a little chopped up, but the size is still nothing.

From Monday the 17th all the way to the end of the window on Monday the 25th, it’s a total desert. The swell charts are blank. We get periods of glassy conditions, light offshore winds, and crystal-clear skies, but no groundswell, no swell, no nothing. Just a whole lot of flat, pretty ocean.

There are no standout days here. Not one. This is a classic blank run for this area, especially since the break itself is rare to break even when there is swell. It’s a sheltered spot, so it needs a very specific push from the SSE to get any size. Right now, it’s not happening.

We've got some nice, clean conditions with light winds, which if we had any swell would be amazing. But as it stands, you’re better off finding another hobby for a couple of weeks. Forecasts can always shift, but this one looks stubborn.
