The Lowdown
Right then, let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Trevone Bay over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, I’ve got to be straight with you – it’s a pretty grim run for the most part. The first week is a write-off. We’ve got a lot of cross-shore wind, lumpy chop, and sloppy conditions that just aren’t worth getting wet for. The water is sitting at 65°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s about the only nice thing I can say.
From Tuesday the 1st right through to the end of Friday the 5th, the swell is there but the wind is just ruining it. You’ll see a few waves on the Saturday morning – about 4ft of west swell with a 10-second period, and the wind is glassy. That’s your first real chance. The combined energy is moderate at 238, and it’ll be clean. It’s not a standout, but it’s surfable if you’re desperate.
Sunday the 6th morning has a tiny 2ft west swell with a 9-second period, and we get a moderate offshore breeze from the SSE. That’s clean, but the energy is weak at 64. It’s a small-wave session for a longboard or a foiler.
Now, Monday the 7th brings a proper jump in size. We’re looking at 6ft from the west, with a 12-second period – that’s a nice groundswell. The combined energy is strong at 1013, so there’s plenty of push. But the wind is cross-shore from the SW, so it’s going to be a bit lumpy. The forecast says marginal tide conditions, so it’s not a total write-off, but it’s not a clean, groomed wave either.
The 8th of September is a big one. Tuesday morning has 10ft of west swell with a 10-second period and a massive 1416 combined energy – that’s serious power. But the wind is a fresh cross-shore from the SW, and the comment says it’s too big for this break. Unless you’re an expert with a big-wave board, leave it. The afternoon is even worse with onshore wind.
The rest of that week is a mess of onshore and cross-onshore winds, with choppy, lumpy conditions. Not worth a mention.
Then we get into the second week. The 14th of September, Monday afternoon, finally shows some promise. We’ve got 6ft of west swell with an 8-second period, but the wind is light from the east, giving us a clean cross-offshore breeze. The energy is moderate at 435, and the forecast says expect good surf. That’s the best on offer in the whole 16 days. It’s not a world-class day, but it’s clean, surfable, and the wind is right. Tuesday the 15th morning is also worth a look with 6ft at 10 seconds and clean cross-off wind, energy at 693. And Wednesday the 16th morning has 4ft from the WSW with a 10-second period, and the wind is almost nothing from the south – glassy clean. Those are your windows.
The standout session is the afternoon of Monday the 14th. It’s the cleanest, most consistent-looking window with decent size and good wind. The 15th and 16th mornings are also good, but that Monday is the one to circle.
So, in short – a long, painful gap of poor conditions, then a few clean days in the second week. It’s not a classic run, but if you’re patient, you’ll get a session.

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.
