The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. We’ve got a bit of a head-scratcher from Godrevy. The water’s a touch warmer than normal for this time of year at 65°, but that’s where the good news ends for a while.
Right now, and for the next week and a bit, it’s a tough watch. The surf is small and the wind is a pain. A bit of a swell fills in on the morning of Thursday the 30th of July, with 5ft waves from the west, but the wind is onshore and messy, so it’s a write-off. There’s a glimmer late Tuesday the 28th of July – the afternoon goes glassy, with light winds from the southwest and tiny 2ft waves from the west-northwest. The energy is minimal (84), but it’s clean. That’s about the only time you could get a fun little log out, but it’s not a standout.
The real event, and it’s a big one, is shaping up for Saturday the 8th of August. The morning brings a huge 13ft swell from the west-southwest. The combined energy is massive (3052). That’s genuine, solid groundswell with a period of 10 seconds. Now, the winds are light and cross-onshore, so it’s not perfect, but the size is there. However, with a wave that size, Godrevy is going to be a washout for most. This is expert territory only. It’s too big for beginners, and for anyone else, it’s going to be a heavy, close-out shore dump. The forecast even says it’s predicted to be too big for this break. For a beach break like Godrevy, that much power with a cross-on wind is more of a kite surfer’s dream than a paddle surfer’s. The afternoon drops back to 8ft, which is still a handful.
So, the honest truth? There’s no standout, clean, surfable day on offer. The Tuesday afternoon glassy session is the closest you’ll get to a decent wave, but it’s tiny. The big swell on the 8th is a spectacle, but it’s not a friendly one. Hang tight, and check back in a few days.
Rusty.

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.
