Godrevy Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, grab a cuppa, let's have a look at what's on offer for Godrevy.

Right then, the next couple of weeks are a bit of a mixed bag, to be honest. We've got a fair bit of onshore wind and messy conditions to wade through before we see anything decent. The water temp is bang on average for this time of year, sitting around 64°F, so a decent spring suit should do the trick.

The start of the period is a write-off. Monday the 31st is a no-go with a heavy onshore wind and a big, bumpy 10ft west swell. The combined energy is a strong 1581, but it's just blown out. Tuesday 1st and Wednesday 2nd are pretty ordinary too, with cross-shore winds and small, weak swell – nothing to get excited about. Thursday and Friday look similar, just not worth paddling out for.

Now, here's where it gets interesting. The standout for this whole run is looking like Saturday the 5th of September. We've got a clean 4ft swell from the WNW, which is bang on the money direction-wise for Godrevy, and the period is a nice long 12 seconds. That's proper groundswell. But the real kicker is the wind: it's glassy. Absolutely dead flat. This is the morning session you don't want to miss. It'll be clean as a whistle. The combined swell energy is a moderate 488, so there's some push there. It won't be huge, but it'll be quality. The only potential bummer is that Godrevy can get busy, so expect company out there.

After that, Sunday the 6th drops right off into tiny, weak waves in the 2ft to 2ft range, so we're back to small boards and a lot of waiting. The following week is a bit of a blur of onshore wind and bumpy conditions. Tuesday the 8th afternoon has some size at 8ft with a cross-shore, but it's going to be a bit choppy.

Looking further out, Monday the 14th of September has a massive 10ft west swell rolling in, with a combined energy reading of 1324. But honestly, that's just too big for the break here. It'll be a washing machine and only for absolute experts with a death wish. The wind is cross-shore, but the swell is just overwhelming. Tuesday the 15th drops a bit to a 7ft west swell with a 11-second period and a clean cross-offshore wind, which looks much more manageable for the stronger intermediate surfer. That's a solid option for the second week, though it's a long way out, so keep an eye on it. The end of the run sees a few clean but tiny days in the 3ft range, great for a log if you've got nothing better to do.

So, to sum it up: this Saturday morning is your one true standout. Get on it.
