The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s coming our way for the next couple of weeks. It’s been a quiet stretch, but I’m seeing a glimmer of hope.
Right now, and for the next week and a half, it’s a flat spell. The swell is tiny, the wind is mostly onshore or cross-shore, and it’s just not worth paddling out. The water temp is sitting at 65°, which is pretty much normal for this time of year, so no surprises there. The first few days are a write-off, with nothing but ankle-snappers and chop. There’s a little bump of energy on Sunday, July 26th, with some 4ft to 4ft waves from the WNW, but the period is short (7 seconds) and the wind is messy, so it’s still a pass. The combined energy jumps to moderate (132) on Sunday morning, but it’s not clean enough to get excited about.
We finally get a real window of hope on August 1st. That’s the one to circle.
Saturday, August 1st morning – that’s the standout. We’ve got a solid 7ft swell from the west, with a period of 10 seconds. The combined energy is strong (770). The wind turns cross-offshore, which is a game-changer. The break is Trestraou and it’s going to be clean. This is the best on offer, hands down. The swell is a bit meaty for the beginners, but for the rest of you, it’s game on. The crowd situation is “sometimes” so you might bump into a few others, but it won’t be a circus.
The afternoon of the 1st drops off a little to 6ft, and the wind picks up to 19 mph, still cross-offshore, but it’ll be a bit more of a battle. Still, the morning is the real prize.
After that, the 2nd of August sees the swell back off a bit and the wind goes cross-shore, making it choppier. The rest of the second week is a mix of small, weak swells and onshore winds. Nothing to write home about. The 6th of August brings a 3ft swell from the west with a long 11-second period, but the cross-shore wind will spoil it, so it’s not a standout.
So, to sum it up: the first week and a half is a total bust. Don’t even bother. The only real day to get excited about is Saturday, August 1st morning. That’s your window. It’s a bit far out, so keep an eye on it, but it’s the best shot we’ve got.
Rusty.

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.
