The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for our stretch of coast.
Right off the bat, I’m not gonna lie to you – the next week or so is a bit of a write-off. We’ve got a long gap with no real surf on offer. The wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, and the models are showing a lot of “poor surf conditions”. For the first few days, from Monday the 14th right through to Sunday the 20th of September, it’s just messy. Swell is there but the wind is killing it. Wednesday the 16th has a 7ft WNW swell but with a fresh onshore breeze and 10-second period, it’s just not gonna be clean. The combined energy hits 1046 (moderate wave energy), but you’d need a death wish or a kite to enjoy that in those winds.
The real standout window starts to open up on Monday the 21st of September. We finally get some light offshore winds from the ESE, and the surf cleans right up. Godrevy itself will see a 3ft west swell with a nice 12-second period. The combined energy is 306 (moderate wave energy). That’s not huge, but with glassy, clean conditions, it’s gonna be fun. The water temperature is sitting at 64°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. That’s a nice bonus.
Tuesday the 22nd morning is similar – clean conditions again with a 3ft west swell, 11-second period, and light cross-offshore winds. Perfect for a long session. After that, the surf dips a little, but Thursday the 24th morning looks like another little winner. We get offshore winds from the ESE again, a 4ft west swell with an 11-second period, and clean conditions. The combined energy is 358 (moderate wave energy). That’s the pick of the second half of the outlook.
Crowds at Godrevy are “often”, so you’ll likely have company, but when it’s clean like that, it’s worth it.
The forecast confidence is decent for the near-term, but as we push into the end of September, it gets a bit more uncertain. The long-range stuff around the 28th and 29th shows some strong cross-offshore winds and a long-period 14-second west swell on the 29th, with combined energy hitting 417 (moderate wave energy), but the wind is fresh and it’s a big ask. Keep an eye on that one, but don’t bank on it.
All in all, the best bet is Monday the 21st through to Thursday the 24th. Pick your window, get out there, and enjoy the clean lines.
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.
