Table - best surf conditions forecast for Bossiney Haven over the next 16 days.


Alright, let’s get this sorted. The skies are clear, the water is glassy, and—well, not a lot is happening in the water yet. For the next two weeks, Bossiney Haven is serving up a whole lot of nothing good for the first ten days. The swell is tiny, the wind is mostly in the wrong direction, and the energy is weak. Even when the swell tries to show up, the conditions are a mess. Patience is going to be the play here.

From the 12th to the 22nd, don’t even bother. We’re looking at ankle-snappers, short-period wind slop, and cross-shore chop that’ll have you thinking twice. The energy is barely ticking over—most days you’re looking at combined swell energy below 100 (23–93), meaning the ocean is practically asleep. The water temp is a balmy 65°, which is nearly 5° warmer than normal for this time of year, so that’s a nice surprise if you’re just having a swim.

Now, the first real flicker of hope comes on the morning of the 27th of July. Wave height is pushing 8ft from the west, with a period of 10 seconds—classic groundswell. That’s a solid 1170 combined energy (strong), so there’s some serious power behind it. But heads up: that’s expert territory. It’s going to be too big and too powerful for beginners. The wind is light and cross-off from the west-northwest early, so it’ll be clean. That’s the standout. Bossiney Haven is a sheltered spot, but with that much west swell and a 10-second period, it’ll hold. Crowds are “sometimes” an issue, so you might have some company but nothing crazy. The afternoon on the 27th sees a slight drop to 8ft, but the wind turns cross-onshore, so get your sessions in early.

The 26th is worth a mention too—5ft from the west-southwest by the afternoon with 277 combined energy, but the cross-shore chop will make it messy. Not a top pick, but if you’re desperate, it’s something.

Bottom line: if you’re after a proper session, wait for the 27th of July, early morning, and get on it. Everything else is a write-off until then.
