The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's break down the next stretch for Godrevy.
Bottom line: there's plenty of water moving, but the wind is going to be our biggest enemy for most of it. We've got a few clean windows, and those are the ones to set your alarm for.
The first few days are a total loss. Friday is blowing 25 km/h from the WNW, with a lumpy 2.2m of cross-onshore chop (745). Saturday cleans up a touch, but it's still not worth your time. Sunday morning has a small 0.8m wave with an offshore breeze (119), but it's gutless. You'll get a few grovelers, but nothing special.
Then the ocean wakes up. Monday and Tuesday bring a big pulse of energy, hitting 2071 on Monday. But it's 2.5m of cross-onshore mess, blown out and dangerous. That's expert-only stuff, and even then, it'll be a battle. This sets the pattern for the next few days: size, but the wind just kills it.
Our first real hope is a bit further out. Saturday the 12th looks good. The morning has a clean 1.1m west swell with a light cross-offshore breeze and a 10-second period (277). It won't be big, but it will be clean and have some push. That's a rare combo over this period, so get on it if you can.
The days following that are small and messy.
Now for the long-range call. It's a long way off, but Wednesday the 16th is showing real promise. The morning session is showing a glassy, clean 1.3m west swell with an 11-second period (383). It's got that potential for clean, lined-up waves. Just remember it's far out, so treat it as a promising lead, not a guarantee. It's the best of the second week. As for the weekend of the 12th, that's our other standout, with the 12th morning being your best bet.
Water temps are about average for the season on the early days, so the 3/2 is the call.
Expect crowds at Godrevy. It's a popular spot, so when it's clean, you'll have company. With the amount of blown-out, big swell and strong winds, the setup might be more appealing for the kite crew than us paddle surfers. Pick your windows, and you'll get some.
Rusty, out.

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.
