The Lowdown
Right, let's run through this in feet and miles per hour. Same story, different numbers.
It is a bleak stretch for Godrevy. The whole 16 days is mostly a dud, starting with a big dry spell. The first entry is for the 15th of July, but it's a puny 1.0 ft west swell with a 30 mph cross-offshore breeze that's just making a mess. The combined swell energy is a weak 25. That's a full skip.
For the next many days, it's a desert. We're talking tiny, short-period slop from the north and northwest, with periods as short as 5 seconds. That is just wind chop. The energy readings stay under 100, meaning the ocean has zero muscle. Winds are mostly onshore or cross-onshore, creating a choppy, lumpy surface.
Things finally perk up around the 27th of July, Monday, when the energy hits 113 and the swell nudges up to 3 ft, but the period is still short and the wind is onshore. The only real hope comes on the 29th of July, Wednesday morning. That's the one to circle. A 7 ft west swell with a 9-second period gives you a combined energy of 671—the biggest number of the entire period. The wind is a light cross-onshore from the north. That's solid size for Godrevy, and you'll want to be experienced. That size is for experts. Expect it to be packed, because the crowds are marked as "often" here. The water temp is around 63°F, which is about average for the time of year.
The 30th of July still has some leftovers, a 5 ft west swell in the morning with energy of 311, but the period drops and the wind goes onshore again. By the afternoon, it's fading out.
Bottom line: Be patient and wait for Wednesday the 29th. That's your window. The rest is a tough watch.

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.
