The Lowdown
Right, old Rusty here. I’ve been staring at the charts for Godrevy and, mate, I won’t lie to you—it’s been a grim few weeks of onshores and nothing much doing, and this 16-day window ain't breaking the drought. We’ve got a massive gap of dead nothing until late next Tuesday, and then it’s all a bit ordinary after that.
We start with Saturday the 25th and Sunday the 26th of July: complete write-offs. Fresh breeze straight onshore from the NW, with a messy wind swell around 3 ft to a bit over 7 ft and a combined wave energy that peaked at a damp squib (467). That’s junky and onshore—don’t bother.
Monday the 27th is more of the same: a moderate cross-onshore with a 4 ft swell from the west. The period does jump to 10 seconds in the arvo, but with the wind as it is, it’s a choppy mess.
Now, here’s the only glimmer in this forecast. Tuesday morning, the 28th of July. Godrevy, in the morning, gets a bit of a breather. The wind drops to an ESE light air—glassy—and there’s a tiny 3 ft swell from the WNW with a period of 9 seconds. Combined wave energy is weak at 110, so it’s not powerful, but it’ll be clean and rideable for a beginner. The water temperature is 64°, running a touch warmer than average for this time of year. That’s your best bet for a splash about.
Wednesday the 29th morning has a gentle offshore from the SSE on a barely-there 2 ft swell. Clean, but tiny. After that, the onshores return. Nothing scores above a 1 out of 10 for the whole run.
Then we get a weird twist. By Sunday the 2nd of August, the swell jumps to a chunky 13 ft from the WSW with a massive combined energy reading of 2938. But the wind is a strong cross-shore, and the wave comment flat out says the swell is too big for this break. That’s a messy, dangerous situation—leave it for the experts or the kiters. The following few days are all cross-onshore and messy, with swells peaking again on Saturday the 8th of August at 7 ft and energy over 800, but still with a moderate cross-onshore and lumpy conditions.
Honestly, this is a barren patch. If the forecasts shift, as they often do, you might see a cleaner day, but based on what’s here, don’t hold your breath. This area can go quiet like this for a spell. Tuesday 28th morning is the only one that’s clean, and it’s tiny.
Stay tuned, but for now, I’d be oiling the fishing rod.

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.
