The Lowdown
G'day, this is Rusty. Well, I've had a good look at the charts for Trestrignel, and I gotta be straight with you—it's a tough stretch ahead. The water is sitting at a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, about 66°, so that's a nice little bonus if you're getting in.
We're starting off on Sunday, the 2nd of August, with barely a ripple. Tiny swell around 2ft from the west, with a short 8-second period, and the wind is a cross-shore from the ENE. The combined energy is a weak 43—there's just nothing to work with. It's a poor surf call, and that's the story for the next several days.
The whole first week is a write-off. Monday the 3rd, Tuesday the 4th, through to Friday the 7th—swell stays tiny, mostly under 3ft, with periods between 6 and 9 seconds. The wind is all over the place, cross-shore, cross-on, and even a bit of onshore. The energy figures are weak, barely cracking 100. Saturday the 8th sees a slight bump in the afternoon with 6ft from the WNW, but the period is only 8 seconds and the wind is a moderate cross-on, making it choppy. The energy climbs to 483, but it's still a poor surf.
We then hit a lull again. Sunday the 9th through to Thursday the 13th, the swell drops back under 4ft, with periods all over the place, but the wind is generally cross-on or onshore. The energy is low, hovering between 24 and 211. It's a real flat spell.
Now, there's a glimmer on Friday the 14th of August. The morning shows a bit of life with 6ft from the west, an 8-second period, and a light cross-shore from the ENE. The combined energy is a moderate 439, and the wind is light, which could make conditions cleaner. It's only a marginal call, but it's the best we've got. The swell direction is from the west, which for Trestrignel is sheltered, but at least it's something. The afternoon turns choppy again.
The rest of the run into the weekend of the 16th and 17th sees the swell hanging around 5ft to 6ft, with periods up to 10 seconds, but the wind is consistently a moderate to fresh cross-on from the WNW, so it's going to be lumpy and messy. The energy is moderate to strong, hitting 459 and 631, but the quality just isn't there—it's still a poor surf forecast.
To be honest, there's no standout day. If you're desperate, the Friday morning of the 14th is your best bet for a clean-ish window, but don't expect much. The rest of the 16-day window is a dud. It's a quiet season for Trestrignel, so this blank run isn't too surprising.
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.
