The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this 16-day window is a tough one for Tronoen. The forecast is basically a long, flat spell with very little to get excited about. The water temp is a whopping 68° right now, which is 5° warmer than usual for mid-July – that’s seriously unusual. You’ll be sweating in your wetsuit, but there’s nothing to paddle into.
From Wednesday the 15th right through to the morning of Saturday the 25th, we’re looking at a massive gap of almost no surf worth mentioning. The swell is tiny, mostly around 1.0ft to 1ft, with weak energy readings (often below 50). The winds are a mixed bag of cross-shore and onshore, making a mess of an already flat ocean. A few afternoon pulses on the 19th and 20th offer a brief 3ft bump from the NW, but it’s short-period and weak (95 energy max). Not worth rushing out for.
The only real standout, and I mean the only one, is Saturday the 25th. The morning brings a bit of life with a 4ft NW swell (136 energy), and the wind is clean cross-off from the N. That’s your best bet. But by the afternoon, the wind swings NW and cranks up to 25 mph, turning the 5ft swell (234 energy) into a messy cross-shore mess. That afternoon session is for experts only.
After that, Sunday the 26th has some 4ft swell but it’s onshore W wind, making it choppy and unpleasant. Then we’re back to flatness for the rest of the month.
So, if you’re desperate, the morning of Saturday the 25th is your window. The swell is small but clean, and the break is fairly consistent. Expect crowds though, as it does get busy here sometimes. The swell direction is NW, which is okay for Tronoen’s WSW optimum, but not perfect. Realistically, unless you’re a kite surfer looking at that afternoon wind, this is a 16-day stretch to leave the board at home.
Rusty.

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.
