The Lowdown

Right then, let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Trestraou. Straight up, I gotta be honest with you – it’s a bit of a tough stretch. The whole 16-day window is looking pretty grim. There’s a solid run of tiny, weak, and messy swell with cross to onshore winds that’s gonna leave us scratching our heads. We’re looking at a good week or more of barely ankle-biters before anything even starts to get our attention.

The first real pulse of size that shows up is around Tuesday the 18th of August. We’ve got a jump in energy, with the combined swell energy hitting 370 on Tuesday morning and climbing to 541 in the afternoon. Swell is coming from the WNW at 7ft, but with a period of 8 seconds, it’s a short-period wind swell, not a clean groundswell. The wind is a cross-offshore from the west, which is about as good as it gets around here, so the surf will be clean. However, at 7ft, this is really only for the experienced crew. Beginners should sit this one out. That’s your best bet in the whole window, but it’s a bit of a one-trick pony.

Keep an eye on the morning of Saturday the 22nd of August too. We see another lift in swell, with 5ft from the WNW and a combined energy of 372. The wind is onshore from the north, so it’s not going to be perfect, but it’s a glimmer of hope. The water temperature is sitting at 65°, which is about 1° warmer than average for this time of year, so it’s not a big deal, just a touch on the nice side.

Apart from that Tuesday and maybe that Saturday, honestly, it’s a lot of waiting. The setup is a sheltered spot, so it needs a decent push from the west-northwest to get any juice. Most of the time, the swell is just too small and the wind is working against us. It’s a real bummer, but sometimes that’s the way it goes. If you’re desperate, you might find a knee-high ripple on the 18th, but don’t hold your breath.

Stay patient, and keep your eyes on the charts. This is Rusty, signing off.

Information about the Trestraou Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Trestraou provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Trestraou can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Trestraou 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 (Trestraou) 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 Trestraou 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.
