The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s cookin’ at Trestrignel over the next couple weeks.
Honestly, it’s a rough run. The whole 16-day window is pretty average with the wind mostly cross or cross-onshore, and when it does go offshore, the swell just ain’t there. The water’s 66°, which is a touch warmer than normal. Great for a swim, not so much for a wave.
Tuesday the 25th of August is your best bet. Morning starts glassy with a SSW wind at just 3 mph, and we’ve got a 3ft northeast swell. It’s short period—6 seconds—so it won’t have much push, but conditions are clean as a whistle. The combined energy is weak at 103, so the waves are small and soft, making it a good day for beginners. Trestrignel is sheltered from the NW, and this swell’s coming from the opposite direction, so it won’t wrap in with any real punch. But glassy conditions are rare in this outlook, so if you’re learning, get on it.
From Wednesday the 26th, the wind goes light offshore, but the swell drops to 2–2ft. You’ll be huntin’ for a ride. Thursday the 27th sees a 4ft WSW swell with clean cross-off breezes, but it’s still not enough to get the heart racing.
The final week is a mess. From Friday the 28th through the start of September, the swell pushes 8ft with energy as high as 837, but the wind is howling from the west—strong to near gale—and it’s cross-onshore or cross. That’s blown-out, lumpy, and dangerous for beginners. On the 5th of September, there’s a clean window with a solid 6ft WNW groundswell (10 seconds) and strong energy of 689, but the next day the onshore wind comes back. That setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
So your best shot is Tuesday the 25th. Keep an eye on the 5th of September as a promising but less certain option. It usually doesn’t stay this poor for long, but right now we’re in a flat, windy stretch.

Information about the Trestrignel Surf forecast

A general guide to surfing at Trestrignel 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 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.
