The Lowdown
Hey, Rusty here again. Let’s break this down in feet and miles per hour for those who think that way.
So, the outlook for Bossiney Haven is slim pickings for the next week and a half. Tiny waves, barely any energy, and just nothing to get excited about. There’s a long stretch of quiet water ahead.
The first real glimmer comes on Monday, 12th August. We get a small kick of energy (111 combined), and the morning session looks best with glassy conditions and a 2-3ft swell out of the WSW (9 seconds). The water’s at 65°, which is a touch warmer than normal. With light cross-offshore wind, it’ll be clean. It’s small and perfect for beginners or a longboard, especially for a spot that can be hit-or-miss.
Then Thursday morning, 13th August, is another glassy window. A 3ft swell from the WSW with clean conditions could give you a few fun little waves. After that, the wind gets messy and the waves lose their shape.
The big one to circle on the calendar is Sunday, 16th August. The energy jumps hard – we’re talking 444–494 combined swell energy, with waves pushing 6-7ft from the WNW. The wind is light and cross-shore, so it should stay reasonably tidy. That’s expert territory at that size, and with the swell direction lining up with what this break likes, it could be a proper session. Remember this is a long way out, so keep an eye on it. Expect a crowd if it comes together, because days like this at Bossiney are rare.
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.

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.
