The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for Godrevy over the next couple of weeks.
To be straight with you, the first week is a bit of a write-off. We’re looking at tiny, weak waves with onshore winds for days. There’s a real dry spell from right now, all the way through to the morning of Wednesday the 12th of August. If you’re itching to get wet, you’ll be waiting a while.
The energy finally starts to show up on Wednesday morning with a 4ft swell from the West, but it’s a cross-shore wind and the whole thing is rated as marginal. The combined energy reading is a moderate 226 (moderate wave energy), so there’s some push there, but the quality just isn’t there yet. You’d be better off holding out.
Now, the real standout—and I mean the only one worth getting excited about—is the morning of Thursday the 13th of August. This is your window. The wind goes glassy, dead calm from the South, and you’ve got a clean 4ft swell rolling in from the West with a 10-second period (moderate combined energy of 235). That’s a proper groundswell for the beach, and it’s the cleanest we’ll see in the whole forecast. The water temp is about average for the time of year.
The next little flicker is on the morning of Sunday the 16th of August. A 4ft swell from the WSW with a clean cross-offshore breeze from the South is on the table. That’s a decent offering, but it’s a bit smaller than the Thursday option and the wind is a bit breezier. Still, it’s a solid second choice.
After that, it’s a mix of onshore junk and dropping swell. The swell gets a bit bigger at 5ft on Monday the 17th, but with a strong cross-onshore wind and a short 6-second period, it’s a choppy, lumpy mess. That’s more for the kite crowd than us paddlers.
So, to wrap it up: the first week is a total bust. The standout is for sure Thursday the 13th of August morning – glassy, clean, and a proper waist-high wave. Sunday the 16th morning is a backup. The rest is either flat or blown out.
Stay patient, and keep an eye on the horizon.
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.
