The Lowdown
G'day, Rusty here. Let's be straight with you – looking at Bossiney Haven (England) for the next sixteen days, it's a tough one. There are no good surf sessions on the cards for the first ten days straight, from now until the 24th of August. It's a long, flat, and messy run, but don't lose all hope just yet.
As we push into the second week, there's a flicker of life. On the morning of Tuesday, the 25th of August, we finally get something that's borderline surfable. We're looking at 5ft of swell rolling in from the W with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy is moderate at 274. The real kicker here is the wind – a light offshore from the SW, which will clean things right up. It's small, not a classic, but given the drought, it's the only real window. The water's about average for this time of year, so no nasty surprises there. Bossiney Haven is a sheltered corner so it doesn't take much to get going, but it's also fairly consistent in a place that can be fickle. Keep your expectations low though; it's a beginner-friendly wave at this size, and crowds are sometimes a thing here, so you might have some company for those tiny, clean peelers.
After that brief hope, it drops right off again into nothing. For the rest of the run, the wind turns nasty and the swell shrivels. A couple of days later we get strong offshore winds, but with only 2ft on the board, there's just no power to work with.
So there you have it – a long, quiet outlook with one very small window of clean, small surf on the 25th. It's one of those periods where the forecasts can still change for the better, but as it stands, a blank run is pretty normal for this stretch of coast.
Rusty.
