The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for our little corner of the coast.
Honestly, looking at the whole 16 days, it’s a pretty grim run. There’s not a single day in the window that I’d genuinely recommend paddling out. The forecast is just one poor surf report after another. We’ve got a long stretch of weak, short-period slop, and when we do get a little bump in size, the wind or the chop ruins it. Stick to the sandcastles for now.
Let’s start with the first real swell, which shows up on the morning of Sunday the 26th of July. Trestraou is looking at a 5 ft swell from the WNW with a short period of 7 seconds. The wind is a fresh 19 mph cross-off, so it’ll be clean looking but weak. The combined swell energy is moderate at best (254). The water’s 66°F, which is a touch warmer than average for this time of year. This one’s a no-go.
Through the week into August, we just keep seeing the same story. The swell gets smaller and the winds get messy. The morning of Friday the 31st of July has a tiny 3 ft WNW swell with a period of 7 seconds, and it’s dead glassy. That’s the only time the wind is truly off, but there’s barely a ripple to ride. The combined energy is just 65 – it’s a lake.
There is a bigger pulse of swell that arrives on the 5th of August. By Wednesday morning we’re looking at a 6 ft WNW swell with a 7-second period. But the wind is screaming from the west at 19 mph. The combined energy is a solid 302, so there’s power, but it’s going to be a blowy, messy situation. This is for experts only, and even then, it’s not going to be pretty. After that, it fades again into weak, onshore junk for the second week.
I can’t pick a standout here. There just isn’t one. The setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing on the bigger days. Keep an eye on the forecasts, because things can turn, but right now, it’s a quiet spell.
Rusty.

Information about the Trestraou Surf forecast

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.
