The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking for Godrevy over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a bit of a tough stretch ahead. The whole first week and a half is pretty much a write-off for decent waves. We’re looking at a long gap of almost no good surf from now through to the 24th of August. The wind is mostly cross-onshore or onshore, often moderate to fresh, and it’s just choppy and lumpy out there. Small, weak swell with low energy is the story for most of that time.
The real standout – and the only real highlight across the whole 16-day window – pops up on Tuesday the 25th of August. We finally get a bit of a window. The morning of the 25th is where it’s at. We’ve got a clean 5ft swell coming from the West (optimum direction for this spot), with light cross-offshore winds from the SSW. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so no shocks there. It’s the kind of morning that makes you get up early. The combined swell energy is moderate at 318, and it’s the cleanest conditions we’ll see. Best session on offer by a long shot. Later that afternoon it drops off a bit with stronger winds.
After that, it’s back to messy, windy conditions right through to the end of the month. There’s a pulse of bigger swell around the 24th, with some 6ft to 6ft from the West, but the wind is cross-onshore or onshore so it’ll be a bumpy mess – likely more fun for the kite surfers than paddle surfers. The week after that is mostly small, weak, and choppy again.
So, if you’ve got one day to paddle out, make it the morning of the 25th. Everything else is slim pickings.
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.
