Godrevy Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the next couple of weeks.

Look, I’ll be straight with you – the first week or so is a real struggle. We’ve got a long, dry patch of poor conditions before anything worth paddling out for shows up. The first real glimmer of hope doesn't come until Sunday the 2nd of August, so that’s over a week of waiting.

The only spot with any potential at all in this forecast is Godrevy (exposed, WNW). It’s a beginner-friendly break, fairly consistent, but it’s often busy. The water temp is sitting at 64°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.

We don’t see anything worth mentioning until the morning of Sunday the 2nd of August. The wind swings offshore and swell picks up to 5ft from the WSW, with a combined energy of 330 (moderate). The conditions are clean, and it’s the first time we get a decent shot. That morning is your best bet, but it’s still not a stand-out epic.

After that, the following week stays mostly messy. The wind stays strong with cross-offshore breezes and moderate to fresh speeds, around 19 mph. The swell stays around 3ft to 6ft from the W and WSW, but the quality is poor, just marginal at best. The energy is moderate to strong (values between 125 and 451), but the onshore wind and chop ruin it.

The swell period is mostly short, around 8 to 9 seconds, so the waves are going to be a bit weak and stumpy, not much push. Not the kind of stuff that’ll have you cancelling plans.

So, the honest truth? There’s no real standout here. The only spot that looks even close to surfable is Godrevy on the morning of Sunday the 2nd of August. If you’re desperate, that’s your window. Otherwise, the 16-day outlook is a tough one – a lot of waiting for very little reward.

Rusty.
