Zaga (Koroni) Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let's be real – the next couple weeks are looking pretty flat for the most part. We've got a long stretch of nothing on the cards, and that can be a bit of a bummer if you're keen to get wet. But it's not all doom and gloom – there's a tiny blip of something on the horizon, so let's break it down.

First things first, the good news. From Friday the 11th right through to Monday the 21st of September, it's a total dead zone. There is simply no surf to be had. You're looking at a solid ten-day stretch of flat, glassy or cross-off conditions. If you're really desperate for a paddle, you might get a clean but totally small ankle-snapper on Tuesday the 22nd. The energy is super weak, reading just 1, and the swell is a tiny 0.3ft from the southeast with a short period of 4 seconds. There are a few more of these little pulses on the 23rd, 24th, and 25th as well, but they're all in that same 0.3ft range and aren't going to offer anything surfable. The energy is weak, all single digits, so there's nothing to get excited about.

Now, when we talk about the water temp at Zaga (Koroni), the anomaly data isn’t provided for the first day, so we’ll just have to take it as it is. But honestly, with no swell to speak of, the water temp will be the least of your worries. Because this spot is sheltered and rarely breaks, a flat spell like this isn't unusual. It’s a beginner-friendly beach and point, but with nothing coming in, even the gentlest of waves are just a memory.

The only real point of interest comes on Tuesday the 22nd and Wednesday the 23rd of September. Even then, you're looking at maybe a 0.3ft, 4-second southeast windswell. The wave energy is minimal, just 1 to 2, so you'd be surfing more ripples than waves. The wind might be light and clean at times, but a 4-second period isn't going to produce a wave with any push behind it. It's not worth making a special trip for. And if you're a beginner, even this tiny bump is going to be a frustrating grovel.

Looking further out, there's nothing else on the charts. The models are showing more of the same – light winds and flat seas. It's one of those times where the ocean is just taking a break. For a spot like Zaga, which is rarely breaking, a blank run like this is pretty normal. The best thing to do is watch the forecast, wait for a change, and be ready to go when the first real swell of the autumn arrives. The setup looks more interesting for a paddle or a kite session than a surf right now, to be honest.

That's all from me. Keep your board waxed and your eyes on the horizon.

Rusty.
