The Lowdown

Alright, let's get into this window for Godrevy. Right off the bat, the first few days are a tough sell. The wind is all cross-shore and the surf is messy. There's a bit of energy on Wednesday afternoon, 6ft from the west-southwest with 427 combined energy, but it's a fresh cross-shore breeze, so it'll be a lumpy, bumpy mess. Thursday and Friday are just onshore slop.

But then, a proper little window opens up. Saturday the 5th in the morning: glassed off with an east-northeast wind of just 3 mph. The swell is a clean 4ft from the west at 10 seconds. Combined energy is a solid 297. That's the kind of session you dream about as a beginner: clean faces, easy paddling, and just enough power to get a ride. The afternoon gets a light cross-shore, but the morning is the pick.

Water temps are about what you'd expect for this time of year.

After that Saturday morning, it drops off a cliff. Sunday the 6th morning has a 20 mph offshore wind, but the swell is tiny at 2ft and only 66 energy. Not worth a look. The rest of that week is small and weak.

Now, cast your eyes to the 8th of September, Tuesday afternoon. We've got a 8ft swell from the west with a massive 1083 combined energy. The period is a short 9 seconds, so it's a lumpy windswell, but that is proper power. The wind is cross-shore from the southwest at 12 mph, so it'll be a bit choppy, but if you're experienced and want some size, that's the one to circle. The 9th of September is equally big at 8ft with 1152 energy, but a 25 mph south-southwest wind will be howling, making it a raw, powerful beast.

The second week brings some longer period groundswells (12 seconds) on the 14th and 15th, around 4ft, but the wind is cross-off or cross-on, so they'll probably be fat and hard to ride.

For my money, the absolute standout is that Saturday the 5th morning. It's the only time it all comes together clean. Everything else is either too small, too messy, or too raw and wild. That's your session.

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.
