The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s breakdown your local surf outlook for Trestraou.
I’ve got to level with you – the next 16 days are looking pretty bleak for a proper paddle session. The finder is giving us zero recommendations across the whole board, with every window marked as "poor surf conditions." The swell is tiny, the wind is often a mess, and the break is "sheltered," so it takes a real push to get decent waves.
We’re looking at a long gap of nothing from Wednesday, July 29th, right through the first week of August. The water temp is 65°F with a 2°F anomaly, so it’s a little warmer than usual, but that’s cold comfort when the surf is flat.
The only speck of hope is the morning of Sunday, August 9th. The combined swell energy hits 205, which is moderate, with a 4ft swell out of the west and a clean cross-offshore breeze. The period is short at 8 seconds, so it’s not a long-range groundswell, but the wind is clean, and the sets will be quick. That’s the pick of the bunch – a little lumpy, fun-sized surf, but nothing to get excited about. The crowd factor at Trestraou is "sometimes," so you might share it with a few others, but it won’t be packed.
The rest of the period is a dud. Swells rarely top 3ft, the wind is onshore or cross-shore most days, and the energy is low – often in the double digits or barely over 100. For instance, the morning of Thursday, August 6th, is glassy but only shows 1ft, which is barely a ripple. That’s a float, not a surf.
Because it’s a beach setup, and we’ve got some days with stronger cross-off winds and small, weak swell, it might actually be more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing, especially around August 9th and 10th when the wind is fresher.
So, don’t get your hopes up. The forecast can shift, and dry spells like this are normal for the area, but if you’re really keen, keep an eye on that Sunday, August 9th morning. Otherwise, it’s a waiting game.
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.
