Trevone Bay Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's talk about what we've got lined up for Trevone Bay. I'll be straight with you – the next week and a half is going to test your patience. There's a long, dry spell of poor conditions ahead.

Looking at the whole run, we have a big gap of almost no worthwhile surf from right now all the way until the 23rd of August. For most of that time, it's either too small, the wind is onshore or cross-onshore which is making things lumpy or choppy, or the periods are just too short to hold anything decent. You’d be spending more time sitting on your board than riding waves.

The only real glimmer of hope, and it’s a bit of a long shot, shows up on the morning of Sunday the 23rd of August. That's the one to keep an eye on. We're looking at a 7ft swell from the west, with a light southerly breeze providing a clean, cross-offshore wind. The wave energy jumps right up to strong levels (600) which is the biggest reading in the whole period. That kind of setup should make for some clean, lined-up waves at the Bay. But this is far out, so treat it as a promising possibility, not a guarantee. The afternoon on the 23rd looks like the wind really picks up, so the morning is your window.

Before that, there's just nothing to get excited about. We've got some days with a bit of size, like Tuesday the 18th with a 5ft swell, but the wind is messy and onshore, making it a chop fest. You might see a small, clean window on the morning of Tuesday the 25th, with a tiny 2ft west swell and glassy conditions, but it's a very small, weak wave. For beginners who just want to bob around, that could be safe, but for anyone wanting a real ride, it's not worth dragging the board out for.

So to sum it up: it’s a tough outlook. The water at Trevone is currently much warmer than normal for this time of year at 67°, but that won't make up for the lack of quality. Keep an eye on the 23rd of August for the best shot at a proper session.

Stay patient,
Rusty
