Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this is a tough one. The whole 16-day window for Bossiney Haven is a quiet spell. We’re not seeing any real swell energy to get excited about. The combined energy values are all under 100 (weak), mostly in the teens, twenties, and thirties, with one late spike. So, it’s a long stretch of ankle-biters and close-outs.
The first real, and I mean *only*, standout happens on Monday, July 27th. That morning, a wave of 5 ft from the W shows up, with a period of 9 seconds. The combined energy hits 355 (moderate swell energy). It’s not huge, but it’s the biggest thing we’ve seen by a long shot. The wind is light from the WNW, so it’s a light cross-onshore – a little bumpy, but surfable. It’s a beginner-friendly wave height, so it’s not going to scare anyone off. There’s a good chance of crowds, because it’s the only real window of size. The water temp is about average for the time of year. For everything else, it’s a desert.
The gap before that is painful. From Sunday, July 12th, right through to Sunday, July 26th, there’s just nothing. Waves are tiny – 0.3 ft to 2 ft for most of that time – with poor surf conditions and zero scores. The wind is a constant issue, mostly cross-shore or cross-onshore, with a lot of lumpy chop. Even the glassy morning on Tuesday, July 21st, only has 1.0 ft of swell. It’s a total write-off for paddle surfing. Honestly, with the small, weak swell and the often messy conditions, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than for a wave count.
So, mark your calendar for July 27th. That’s your one shot. Before that, it’s a solid two weeks of waiting. The forecast can change, but right now, it’s a patience game.
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 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.
