Constantine Surf:
‘Harlyn report: Actually it is alright around here today. Small but okay shape. Two foot waves are being held tall by that south westerly wind, offshore here. Yep, it is a bit overcast, damp and breezy but that should all clear soon enough, probably by the time you've had a little Sunday morning cosy up!’

PorthcawlSurf (School & Hire):
‘Porthcawl: Windy 1-2ft and messy. It's too high at the moment but even as it comes off the rocks it will only be 2ft tops and then drop off quickly. 1ft most of the day, picking up on the push this afternoon to 3ftish but still messy with strong winds. Check Coney Beach this afternoon.’

Information about the Bolt Head Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Bolt Head provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 2-7 days. A general guide to surfing at Bolt Head can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Bolt Head 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 (Bolt Head) 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 Bolt Head 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.
Bolt Head is 22 km (14 miles) from the city of Dartmouth. If you plan a holiday in South Devon, look for hotels and other accommodation in Dartmouth. Dartmouth has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
