The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for this stretch of coast over the next couple of weeks.
Gotta be straight with you – this is a tough outlook. We’re looking at a long, dry spell with nothing really worth paddling out for. The swell shows up, sure, but every time it does, the wind is just all over the shop, keeping things messy and choppy. You’ll see surfable waves but the quality just isn’t there for a proper session.
We start off on Saturday the 12th with a 6ft swell out of the west, but with a 19 mph southwesterly crosswind, it’s lumpy and poor. The combined wave energy is moderate (400) but the wind kills it. That sets the tone. Sunday the 13th is slightly smaller at 5ft, wind shifts westsouthwest, still cross, still poor. Monday the 14th drops to 4ft, still cross-shore junk. By Tuesday the 15th, the swell tries to lift back to 5ft with a westsouthwest cross-onshore, but it’s just choppy. Wednesday the 16th sees the biggest combined energy of the run (886) with a 6ft west swell, but it’s onshore. No good.
This pattern basically holds through the end of the third week – onshore or cross-shore winds with messy waves. It isn’t until Tuesday the 22nd that we finally get a small window of clean surf. Swell is tiny though, only 2ft, west-northwest direction, and the wind goes light cross-offshore out of the southsouthwest. For a brief moment, it’s surfable but very ordinary. The energy is weak (64). That’s the only real highlight, and it’s a marginal one.
There are a few promising looking offshore days on the 24th and 25th, with strong southeast winds blowing clean. But the swell is tiny – just 1ft to 2ft, and with long period around 11 seconds on the 25th. The wave energy is still weak (less than 100). It just isn't enough to push you into anything worthwhile, especially for a beach break like Trevone Bay. The water temp is a touch warmer than normal at 64° on the 12th, but that’s small comfort when there’s no real surf.
So, bottom line: over two weeks there’s one very small, cleanish moment on Tuesday the 22nd. Everything else is blown out or tiny. There’s no standout session here.

Information about the Trevone Bay Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Trevone Bay provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Trevone Bay can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Trevone Bay 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 (Trevone Bay) 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 Trevone Bay 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.
Trevone Bay is 4 km (2 miles) from Padstow. If you plan a holiday in North Cornwall, look for hotels and other accommodation in Padstow. Padstow has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
