The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what Bossiney Haven’s got cookin’ for us over the next couple of weeks. Gotta be straight with you – it’s a lean stretch ahead, with a big gap of nothing much to get excited about.
Right now and for the next few days, it’s flat and messy. We’ve got a bit of weak, knee-high swell from the west at about 2 ft, but with a stiff SSE breeze of 16 mph it’s just not worth paddling out. The combined energy is a measly 81 (weak). That sets the tone for the next while, honestly.
Monday the 7th we see a spike in size – waves around 6 ft from the west with a 13-second period and a combined energy of 1237 (moderate to strong). But the wind is a cross-shore WNW breeze at 12 mph, and it’s marked as marginal due to tide. This one’s got some grunt, but it’s not gonna be clean. Too messy for a standout.
We roll into Tuesday the 8th and Wednesday the 9th – still some size (6 ft to 6 ft), but the wind is cross-onshore, making it choppy and lumpy. Thursday the 10th cleans up a bit with cross-offshore SW winds, but the swell drops right off to 4 ft to 5 ft and the period is short (6-7 seconds). It’s surfable but ordinary.
After that, we hit a real dry spell. From Friday the 11th all the way through to the 15th of September, it’s consistently poor – small, weak swells with poor energy, and only a few clean windows that still don’t have enough wave to get excited about. You’re looking at close to a week with nothing worth recommending.
Our only real glimmer comes on the 16th of September – Wednesday morning. We get a clean 5 ft swell from the WNW, 9-second period, light offshore southerly breeze at just 3 mph. The combined energy sits at 367 (moderate). It’s not epic, but it’s the best we’ve got. The wind is offshore and glassy, so it should be clean. But keep in mind, Bossiney Haven is a sheltered spot, so it doesn’t grab the full force of the swell, and it’s fairly consistent but can be fickle. With crowds only ‘sometimes’ an issue, you might find a few friends out.
After that, the 17th and beyond drop back into small, ordinary conditions. So to wrap it up: the standout is the morning of Wednesday the 16th of September – it’s a long way out, but it’s the only clean, surfable window on offer. Everything else is either too windy, too messy, or too small.
Stay patient.
Rusty.

Information about the Bossiney Haven Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Bossiney Haven provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Bossiney Haven can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Bossiney Haven 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.

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 Bossiney Haven 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.
