The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s in store for us over the next couple of weeks at Godrevy. It’s a bit of a mixed bag, with a lot of wind and chop to wade through, but there are a couple of clean windows that could be worth the wait.

The forecast kicks off with a bit of a dirty start. Wednesday the 2nd and Thursday the 3rd are all about wind and messy cross-shore slop, with swell around 5 ft to 6 ft, but period is a short, weak 6 to 8 seconds. The combined energy is moderate (231 to 400), but with fresh breezes, it’s poor.

We get a lift on Friday the 4th with a bigger 7 ft swell from the west, but it’s onshore wind and a short period, so it’s still a write-off for a clean ride. The energy climbs to 645, but it’s not doing us any favours.

Then, Saturday the 5th is the standout. The morning brings a glassy, clean 5 ft swell from the west-northwest, with a nice long period of 11 seconds. The combined energy is a solid 512, and with the wind going glassy, this is the best we’ll see. Crowds are likely here, but for this session, it’s worth it. The water temperature is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.

After that, it drops off again. Sunday the 6th is tiny, with 2 ft and weak energy (85), and the wind is offshore but the swell is too small. The following week, from the 7th to the 15th, is a long run of poor-to-marginal conditions. There’s a big spike of energy on Monday the 7th (1346) with a 7 ft swell and a 13-second period, but it’s onshore wind and lumpy, so it’s more of a chore than a joy. That size is pushing into expert-only territory.

The second week is pretty grim. The 8th and 9th see some moderate energy (over 1000), but with fresh cross-shore winds and lumpy chop, it’s not surfable. By the 10th, the swell drops to 6 ft, but the wind is cross-onshore, and the energy is still high (611), but the quality is poor. The 12th, 13th, and 14th are tiny, weak, and windy.

There’s a tiny glimmer on the 16th of September. The morning is glassy with a 1 ft swell, but the period is a very long 14 seconds, giving a combined energy of 105. That’s a long-period groundswell, which can be fun at a point or reef, but at Godrevy it’s likely to be too weak and straight. Still, it’s the only clean condition in the second week.

So, to sum it up: Saturday the 5th is your best bet. Get on it early for the glassy morning session. The rest of the window is mostly a washout, with a lot of onshore wind and chop. The long run of poor conditions from the 7th to the 15th is a real bummer, but that’s just how it goes sometimes.

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.
