The Lowdown
Alright, let's get into it. The 16-day window is a tough one for Bossiney Haven. We’re looking at a long stretch of small, weak swell and wonky wind directions. The first real chance for anything worth paddling out for doesn't arrive until much later.
Right now, the water is sitting at 64.2°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. Not a big deal, but pleasant.
The first days are a write-off. From Tuesday the 28th of July right through to the 9th of August, the swell is tiny, mostly under 2.6ft, and the period is too short to hold any shape. The wind is a mess for a good portion of that, too. There's a few moments of cross-off or light wind, but the (combined energy of all swells directed here) is weak, barely cracking 50 or 60. The waves are just not there. It's a real bummer.
Then we get a glimmer. On the 10th of August, Monday morning, the tables turn. A new W swell pushes through at 4.6ft, with a 9-second period. The wind is a clean cross-off from the WSW at 22 mph. This is the real standout. The (combined energy of all swells directed here) jumps to 304, which is strong. The Monday afternoon session holds up too, with 3.9ft and a 227 energy reading. This is the best on offer, and it’s still a week and a half away. Beware, though: Bossiney Haven is a sheltered spot, so a W swell is okay, but it’s not the optimum direction. Still, clean conditions and head-high sets will make it worth a look.
That afternoon on the 12th of August, Wednesday, is a bit of a tease. The swell is only 1.6ft, but the wind goes glassy. A flat, glassy day is a great day to be on the water for a beginner, but there’s no real wave energy.
If you're an expert, keep an eye on that Monday the 10th. For everyone else, it’s a waiting game.
