The Lowdown
Right then, folks, it’s Rusty here, and I’ve got a bit of a tricky one for you. We’re looking at the Bossiney Haven stretch, and I’ve gotta be straight with you – the surf forecast for the next 16 days is a real struggle. There’s just nothing on the cards that’s worth a paddle. The whole window is a write-off, so we’re in for a dry spell.
It’s basically flat or tiny, messy, and windy for the majority of the time. From Monday the 27th of July right through to the end of the first week of August, we’re looking at poor surf conditions. The swell is tiny, mostly under 3ft, and the wind is all over the place – cross, onshore, and cross-onshore, which just chops everything up. The water is a touch warmer than normal at 64°, but that’s the only good news. The combined energy is pathetic, sitting at just 150 (weak) on the first Monday morning, and it just gets weaker from there.
We’ve got a long gap of flat, junk surf until we finally see a bit of life on Sunday the 9th of August. That morning, there’s a pulse of long-period groundswell coming in from the west at 13 seconds, with a clean cross-offshore breeze. The swell is small, only 2ft, but the energy jumps to 158 (moderate). The afternoon gets a bit more interesting with a 4ft west swell at 11 seconds, and the combined energy hits 579 (strong). The wind stays clean, so it might be worth a look for a dedicated logger, but honestly, it’s still a long way off and the forecast is uncertain.
Then on Monday the 10th of August, the swell builds to 5ft from the west, but it’s a bit of a mess. The wind swings cross-onshore from the NNW and NW, creating choppy conditions. The energy is still strong at 566, but with the wind, it’s not going to be a classic. The following days drop off quickly again. There’s a brief moment on Tuesday the 11th with a 4ft west swell and light winds, but the cross-onshore breeze will still put a ripple on it.
So, the bottom line: Bossiney Haven is a sheltered spot, and it’s just not going to fire in this window. If you’re desperate for a paddle, you might get a wave on the 9th or 10th of August, but don’t expect much. It’s a quiet time of year, and this kind of blank run is not unusual for this area. The forecasts can change, but for now, it’s a good time to work on the wax job and wait.
Rusty.
