The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it. The bad news first: Trestrignel is a tough beat for the next 16 days. The forecast is a long, flat spell with no real surf to speak of. The swell is tiny, the wind is mostly onshore or cross-shore, and the scoreboard is a flat zero every single session. The first record shows Monday the 20th of July with a paltry 0.7ft swell, a weak 23 units of combined energy, and a dirty cross-shore wind. It’s no good. We’re looking at a solid gap of poor conditions right through the first week, with nothing worth paddling for.
The only flicker of hope comes right at the end of the month. Around Tuesday the 28th of July, the swell bumps up a little – we’re seeing 4ft to 4ft from the NW and WNW, with the combined energy climbing into the 100s and even hitting 206 units on Tuesday afternoon. But don’t get excited. The period is short, around 5 to 7 seconds, meaning it’s weak, wind-swell junk. The wind is a fresh cross-on or cross-shore, so it’ll be lumpy, choppy, and messy. Not a wave you’d want to paddle for.
Wednesday the 29th of July morning actually looks a bit more interesting for a moment. The swell is 4ft from the WNW with a period of 11 seconds, and the combined energy hits 335 units – that’s moderate wave energy. The wind is straight onshore from the north, but at 12 mph, it’s not ideal. It’s a poor surf day, but if you’re desperate, it’s the best of a bad bunch. Still, the water temperature is about average for the time of year, nothing unusual.
From there, it fades again. The 30th and 31st of July drop back to 2ft to 2ft, and the wind stays fresh and messy. Into the first week of August, we get a bit more energy – 140 to 151 units on the 2nd and 3rd of August – but the swell is still underwhelming at 3ft to 3ft, with short periods and cross-on winds. There’s nothing here that stands out as a true winner.
The whole 16-day window is a blank run. Trestrignel is a sheltered spot, and when the swell direction is all wrong and the wind is against you, it just doesn’t fire. Fairly consistent it might be, but not for this stretch. Hang tight, check the charts again in a few days – it tends not to stay this poor for long.
Rusty.

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.
