The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it for this stretch. It’s a tough run of form, I won’t lie. There’s a big gap of nothing worthwhile at the start, and we’re looking at a long dry spell before anything even hints at getting decent. The first few days are a write-off, so don’t bother rushing down.
The first real chance to get wet isn’t until Tuesday the 28th of July at Godrevy. We’re talking small, clean waves early that morning – around 3 ft from the WNW – with a light offshore breeze out of the SE. The water temp is 64°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so that’s a nice bonus. The energy is weak though, only 111 (moderate wave energy), and it’s pretty ordinary. It’s a beginner-friendly break, and it’s fairly consistent here, but expect crowds as it’s often busy. Wednesday morning the 29th gets glassy, with a tiny 2 ft WNW swell, but it’s barely a ripple. After that, it’s back to onshore junk and small, lumpy waves for days.
The only real standout – and I’m stretching the word “standout” here – is still at Godrevy. The best on offer is a brief window Tuesday morning the 28th. That’s the pick of the litter. The rest of the week into early August is a write-off: strong onshore winds, messy cross-chop, and tiny swell all the way through to the 9th of August. The swell energy drops to a pathetic 25 (weak wave energy) by the 1st of August. There’s a tiny pulse on the 4th of August, a 4 ft SW swell with 206 (moderate wave energy), but it’s got fresh cross-shore winds and heavy rain – not worth paddling out for.
Bottom line: if you’re desperate for a surf, hit Godrevy on the morning of Tuesday the 28th of July. Otherwise, it’s a long, frustrating wait. The setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing for most of this period.
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.
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.
