The Lowdown
Alright, let's get into it. The next 16 days look pretty grim for us here at Godrevy. We've got a big gap of poor surf at the start, and while there are a couple of little windows that might be worth a paddle, nothing is really firing.
We start off on Sunday the 26th of July with a lumpy, wind-battered 7ft swell from the WNW, but with a fresh 19 mph NW wind blowing straight onshore, it's a total write-off. That messy, onshore pattern sticks with us for days. Monday the 27th sees the swell drop, but still with onshore winds. It's not until Tuesday the 28th that we get a tiny glimmer. Tuesday morning, the wind swings light from the S, giving us a clean, cross-offshore look. The swell is a pathetic 3ft from the WNW, so you're really scratching for any little wave. The combined swell energy is weak (110), so don't expect any punch.
Tuesday afternoon is the only time in the first week that looks even remotely tempting. At Godrevy, the wind goes completely glassy, dead calm, with 0 mph from the NNE. The swell is only 2ft from the WNW, but with a 9-second period, it's clean and gutless. It's a *very* small, clean wave for a beginner to mess about on. Crowds are likely here.
The rest of that week is a bust. Wednesday the 29th morning has clean little 2ft waves, but it's just not enough to get excited about. Thursday and Friday are blown out again. Saturday the 1st of August is messy and onshore.
Finally, we get a proper look-in on Sunday the 2nd of August. The morning brings a 5ft swell from the WSW, but the real story is the clean conditions from a light ENE cross-offshore breeze. The combined wave energy is moderate (210) and the forecast says "expect good surf conditions." This is our first real standout. It’s not huge, but it’s clean and there will be some fun little waves on offer. The afternoon goes glassy again, but the swell is smaller.
The second week is a real mixed bag of poor conditions. Strong, messy onshore winds tear things up from the 4th to the 7th of August. Then, on Sunday the 9th of August, we get another promising window. A clean, 3ft swell from the W with a 10-second period, light cross-offshore wind from the E, and a solid combined swell energy of 224. Again, "expect good surf conditions." This is the other standout in the period, but it's far off, so keep an eye on it. The swell direction is dead-on what this spot likes (WNW), so the setup is right.
So, to sum it up: There's no surf worth mentioning for the first two days. The only two days that look like a real go are Tuesday the 28th of July for a glassy, tiny wave, and Sunday the 2nd of August for clean, waist-high surf. After that, Sunday the 9th of August has potential, but it's a long way out.

Information about the Godrevy Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Godrevy provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Godrevy can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Godrevy 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. If you surf the same spot (Godrevy) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. 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 Godrevy 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.
