The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's look at what's coming up for Tronoen.
We're looking at a pretty quiet start, honestly. The first few days are a write-off. Friday morning the 24th kicks off with tiny 0.7ft swell from the west, but it's cross-off and just not worth paddling out for. The whole weekend and into Monday stays average at best, with small, short-period windswell and messy winds. The water is sitting at 68°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but that's about the only thing to get excited about.
There's a bit of a gap with no real recommendations until the morning of Monday the 28th. That Tuesday morning shows some potential. We've got a 4ft west-northwest swell with a 10-second period, and the wind is out of the east-southeast, which is cross-offshore. That's clean, and the combined energy is moderate (221). It's not firing, but it's a surfable window.
The real standout, the one you want to circle on the calendar, is the morning of Saturday, the 1st of August. This is the one. A solid 7ft west swell rolls in with a 12-second period, and the wind is glassy out of the south-southeast. The combined energy is a pumping 1256, which is strong. This is clean, powerful, west swell. The size is pushing into expert territory, over 8ft, so this is for the experienced crew only. It's going to be a proper session.
The afternoon of that same day gets messy with a cross-shore, and the following Sunday morning has a 5ft west swell, but the wind is cross-shore again, making it less appealing. The middle of the second week gets blown out by onshore winds, so don't get your hopes up.
So, to sum it up: the first week is a slog. The only real bright spot, the one that's worth the wait, is that Saturday morning on the 1st of August. Get on it.

Information about the Tronoen Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Tronoen provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Tronoen can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Tronoen 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 (Tronoen) 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 Tronoen 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.
