The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Godrevy over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I’ve gotta be honest – it’s a tough stretch. The forecast data shows a long, dry spell with barely anything worth paddling out for. The water temp is sitting at 64°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so that’s one small comfort if you’re just having a swim.
The first real chance of anything surfable comes on Thursday the 23rd. Early morning, the wind goes glassy – dead calm, offshore from the ENE at just 6 mph. That’s a major positive. The swell is small, only 3 ft from the north with a short period of 6 seconds, so it’s weak and weak energy (63). The condition report says "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions." Honestly, it’s the best of a bad bunch, but it’s not something to get excited about. It’s clean, but tiny.
After that, it’s back to rubbish. Cross-onshore winds and small, chopped-up waves dominate the rest of the month. We get a bump in swell height on Sunday the 26th – 6 ft from the NW, with a combined energy of 238 (moderate), but the wind is cross-onshore at 12 mph, making it lumpy and poor. A bit of a tease, that one.
The following week stays quiet. There’s a small window on Saturday the 1st of August with a long-period swell (11 seconds) from the WNW, but the height is only 1 ft and the energy is weak (80). The wind is light and offshore from the NW in the morning, so it’ll be glassy, but you’ll be fighting for a ripple. It’s promising but less certain being that far out.
The standout, if you can call it that, is the glassy morning of Thursday the 23rd. That’s your best bet for a clean, surfable wave. The rest of the period is a write-off for any decent surfing. The setup is more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing on those windy days, honestly.
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.
