The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Trestrignel over the next couple of weeks.
To be straight with you, the outlook is pretty grim for a long stretch. We’re looking at a solid gap of days with nothing worth paddling out for. From the start of the period through to the morning of the 11th, it’s flat or close to it, with tiny, weak swell and messy wind. Not worth getting wet.
The first real flicker of hope doesn’t come until the morning of the 12th. Even then, it’s small. We’re talking 2 ft swell from the west, with a period of 10 seconds. The combined energy is moderate, sitting at 183. The wind is light and cross-offshore, so it’ll be clean. The wave comment says “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions,” which is about right. Not a standout, just a chance to get some small, clean waves if you’re desperate.
The rest of the second week doesn’t offer much. There are a few mornings with clean conditions, like the 18th and 19th, but the swell is tiny and weak. The wind on the 18th afternoon is offshore from the SSE at 12 mph, and the swell is only 2 ft from the west-northwest. It’s clean, but you’ll be on a longboard or a foamie.
Now, the only real event on the horizon is the 21st. That’s the one day that might get your heart rate up. On the morning of the 21st, we’ve got a solid 7 ft swell from the west-northwest, with a period of 9 seconds. The combined energy is strong, hitting 697. The wind is light and cross-offshore from the SSW at 9 mph, which means clean conditions. The wave comment is “marginal surf forecast or questionable tide conditions,” so it’s not a guaranteed classic, but it’s the biggest swell in the window. At 7 ft, this is pushing into expert territory, so leave the beginners on the beach. The afternoon stays similar, with 7 ft swell and light cross-on wind, but still clean.
That 21st is the pick of the bunch. It’s the only real spike in size, and the wind looks workable. The rest of the period is a write-off. If you’ve got a window, pencil in the 21st, but keep your expectations in check. The water temp is 65°, which is about normal for this time of year here.
Rusty, signing off.

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