The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at the next 16 days for Trestraou.
Honestly, mate, it’s a pretty grim stretch. The pattern is flat and messy for the most part, with very few windows that look worth paddling out for. The first real chance of anything surfable doesn’t show up until mid-August, and even then, it’s nothing to write home about.
The forecast kicks off around Tuesday, August 4th, with a small 3 ft swell from the WSW, but the wind is a cross-offshore breeze, so it’s clean. The wave energy is weak (101), and the period is short at 8 seconds, so it’s not holding much punch. It’s a poor day for surfing.
Wednesday, August 5th sees a bump in size to 5 ft from the W and WNW, with moderate wave energy (196-266). But the wind swings cross-shore, kicking up a cross-chop, so it’s looking pretty average. Not your day.
Thursday, August 6th through to Tuesday, August 12th is a total write-off. Swell drops to under 3 ft for most of it, with onshore and cross-onshore winds, and wave energy falling into the 20s and 30s. That’s a long stretch of nothing.
The next real chance comes on Thursday, August 13th. Swell picks up to 3 ft from the W, with a moderate 8-second period and a clean cross-offshore wind. The combined energy is moderate (140). It’s still not big, but it’s the first clean-ish option in over a week.
Friday, August 14th is the standout of the whole outlook. The morning shows 4 ft from the W with a 9-second period, cross-shore wind, and solid wave energy at 242. It’s the best combination of size, period, and power we’ll see, but the cross-shore wind will put a bit of texture on the face. Still, if you’re picking a session, this is it.
Saturday, August 15th offers similar size (4 ft) and energy (205), but the cross-shore wind hangs around. It’s alright, but not a major upgrade.
From Sunday, August 16th onward, the swell fades again. The 18th and 19th show a small return to 2 ft - 3 ft with clean winds on the 18th morning, but the energy is low and the period is short. It’s a poor end to the run.
The water temperature is 65°F, which is about normal for this time of year, so no surprises there.
Bottom line: the best session of the whole 16 days is Friday morning, August 14th, with 4 ft from the west, a 9-second period, and moderate energy. It’s not pumping, but it’s the only real window of fun. Everything else is either flat, choppy, or too small to bother with.
Rusty.

A general guide to surfing at Trestraou can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

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.
