The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the next couple of weeks at Godrevy.
Straight up, I’ll be honest with you – this is a frustrating outlook. We’ve got a long dry spell to get through first. From now right through until late in the second week, it’s pretty much a write-off. The wind is all over the place, mostly onshore or cross, and the surf quality is just not there. We’re looking at a solid gap of about a week with nothing worth paddling out for.
It’s not until Saturday the 19th of September that things finally perk up. That morning, the wind drops to dead glassy – you couldn’t ask for better. The swell hangs around 7 ft from the West. The combined energy reads 589 (moderate), so there’s some push there. It’s gonna be clean, fat, and fun for a beginner-friendly wave. It’ll be a busy one though, as the crowds here are often thick.
Now, the real standout, the one that has me chewing my lip with excitement, comes on Thursday the 25th of September. That Friday morning is something special. The swell is a solid 7 ft from the West, and we’ve got a light east-southeasterly breeze making it cross-offshore. The energy jumps right up to 1125 (strong). The report says it’s excellent for experienced surfers. That’s the session you clear your calendar for. Expect good shape and clean, lined-up walls.
Following that, Saturday the 26th morning sees the swell pump up to 12 ft from the West. That’s big – expert territory only. The energy is cranking at 1904 (very strong), but the writing is on the wall: it’s predicted to be too big for this break. A word to the wise, that setup might be more interesting for the kite crew than for paddle surfing.
For the first break I mentioned, the water temperature feels about average for the time of year, so no wetsuit surprises.
Look, the second week has a few glimmers, but nothing beats that Thursday the 25th. That’s your window. The long-range stuff around Monday the 21st and Tuesday the 22nd is just ordinary, and the gap before the 19th is a real bummer. Keep an eye on the forecasts, but for now, get your gear ready for that late September swell.
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.
