The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Trevone Bay over the next couple of weeks. I’ll be straight with you – it’s a bleak picture.
Right from the get-go, we’ve got a long stretch of nothing much. From Wednesday the 29th right through to the morning of Tuesday the 4th of August, it’s all “poor surf conditions” with tiny swell and messy wind. The wave energy is barely registering, hitting values as low as 33 and only creeping up to 55 on the first of August. The wind is mostly cross-on or onshore, with a moderate to gentle breeze that just chops everything up. Not worth paddling out at all.
There's a brief flicker of hope on the morning of Tuesday the 4th of August. The wind swings around to a glassy WNW at just 3 mph, and the swell bumps up a touch. We get a 3 ft swell from the north, but the period is a short 5 seconds. The combined energy is still weak at 78. The guidance says the break is “fairly consistent” and exposed to a west-northwest swell, so that north direction isn't ideal. It's surfable for a beginner, but it’s not going to be any kind of standout. The water temp here is 64°, which is a touch warmer than normal for the time of year.
Then we slide right back into a wasteland. From Tuesday afternoon all the way through to Thursday the 13th of August, it’s back to tiny waves and poor conditions. The wind picks up, sometimes hitting 19-22 mph from the north-northwest, turning things lumpy, choppy, and just plain nasty. The swell drops to 0.7 ft or 1.0 ft on some days. The wave energy numbers are pathetic, sinking to a single-digit 6 on the 11th of August. This is a solid week of no surf.
To be brutally honest, there isn’t a single standout session in this entire 16-day window. The only remotely rideable moment is that glassy Tuesday morning on the 4th of August, but even then it’s a tiny, weak, north swell with a short period. It’s not worth getting excited about. Trevone Bay is a fairly consistent spot, but these windows happen. It tends not to stay this poor for long, so keep an eye on the forecasts. For now, the boards stay in the van.
Rusty.

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.
