The Lowdown
Right, mate, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Trestrignel over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a bit of a flat spell for us. The whole 16-day window is a write-off for any decent paddle surfing. The first recommendation pops up on Saturday, August 1st, but it’s a sad little 2 ft W swell at 9 seconds, with a combined energy of just 56 (weak). That’s onshore N wind at 9 mph, and the water is a touch warmer than normal at 66°. The break is sheltered and always crowded, but not even that matters when the conditions are labelled “poor surf conditions”. That’s the story right through.
We get a few days where the swell bumps up a bit – Wednesday, August 5th, sees 5 ft W swell at 8 seconds, but again it’s cross-onshore at 16 mph and choppy. The energy hits 255 (moderate) but with that wind, it’s just messy. It’s a beach-and-reef setup, so honestly, with the significant swell and strong wind, this looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
Thursday, August 6th, the swell peaks at 5 ft WNW at 8 seconds (266 energy, moderate), but it’s onshore N wind at 9 mph. That’s a bit too big for beginners and the wind will ruin it. For the rest of the window, it’s a mix of tiny swell and onshore or cross-onshore breezes. Even the cleanest moments – like Tuesday, August 11th, with a light cross-offshore E wind – are on a 2 ft swell that just won’t hold any power.
There are no standouts. Not a single day worth paddling out. The break is fairly consistent, but in this case, it’s consistently poor. The forecasts can change, but right now, leave the boards in the shed.

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.
