The Lowdown
Alright, let me tell you what’s cookin’ at Godrevy. This is a tough one, folks. For the next week and a half, it’s pretty much flat or just plain messy. There’s a real gap here.
We start off on Tuesday, 28th July with a little pulse of swell. A 3ft WNW swell, with a 9-second period, and cross-off winds from the SSW. The water’s about average for the time of year. The combined energy is moderate at 110. It’s clean, but honestly, it’s just ordinary. Not worth paddling out for.
From Wednesday the 29th right through to Monday morning, 10th August, it’s a write-off. We’re talking tiny waves, onshore winds, and choppy conditions. Nothing but poor surf. The gap feels like forever.
Then, on Monday, 10th August, things perk up a little. We get a 3ft to 3ft swell from the W and WSW, with 9 to 10-second periods. The wind is a cross-off from the SSW, keeping it clean. The combined energy climbs back to 115-138, which is moderate. Still not a standout, but it’s surfable.
The real glimmer in this 16-day window shows up on Tuesday, 11th August. The swell builds to 7ft from the SW, with an 8-second period. The wind stays cross-off from the SSW. Now, the combined energy jumps to 806 – that’s strong to very strong wave energy. But, and it’s a big but, the period is short, so it’s a bit of a windswell mess. That size is getting into the “only for experts” territory. It’s a marginal forecast, but it’s the best we’ve got.
Wednesday, 12th August, we see a 8ft swell from the WSW, but it’s onshore from the NNW and the period is a short 8 seconds. The energy is still strong at 636, but the conditions are questionable.
So, if you’re lookin’ for the best on offer, it’s that Tuesday, 11th August, at Godrevy. Wait for that 7ft SW swell with the clean cross-off wind. It’s big, it’s a bit raw, but it’s the only real window of power in the whole forecast. Just be ready for a paddle.

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.
Godrevy is 5 km (3 miles) from Camborne. If you plan a holiday in North Cornwall, look for hotels and other accommodation in Camborne. Camborne has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
