The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here with a look at what’s coming our way. I’ll be straight with you – it’s a tough stretch ahead. We’re looking at a long, frustrating gap with barely a ripple worth paddling for, so don’t bother checking the cams for a while.
The water is sitting at about 63°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year, but that’s small comfort when there’s no surf to enjoy.
From Wednesday 22 July right through to Friday 31 July, it’s a write-off. The swell is tiny, the periods are short, and any energy we do see is often chopped up by onshore or cross-shore winds. There’s a brief moment on Tuesday 28 July morning with cleaner conditions thanks to a light cross-offshore breeze at Bossiney Haven, but the swell is a pathetic 2 ft with weak energy (38). Not worth the wetsuit hassle.
The first real glimmer of hope doesn’t arrive until Saturday 1 August morning. We get a pulse of moderate energy (450) with a 5 ft swell from the west, period around 10 seconds, and a clean cross-offshore breeze. That’s the standout window – the best we’re going to get in this whole forecast. The size is getting a bit much for beginners, but for anyone with a bit of experience, it could be fun. This is at Bossiney Haven.
After that, Sunday 2 August has some surfable waves but they’re ordinary. The morning sees a 4 ft west-southwest swell with clean offshore wind from the south-southeast, moderate energy (203). The afternoon picks up to 6 ft from the west with a solid offshore breeze, moderate wave energy (355), and that’s worth a look if you missed the Saturday morning session.
Beyond that, Monday 3 August and Tuesday 4 August hold some swell but conditions are mixed, and by Wednesday 5 August we’re back to tiny glassy leftovers.
So, to cut it short: if you want the best on offer, aim for Saturday 1 August morning or Sunday 2 August. The rest of the 16-day window is pretty grim.
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.
