St Ives Bay surf conditions on Sat, Jul 11, 2026

Godrevy forecast and wind observations, with Sevenstones offshore and Perranporth inshore wave readings. Each source keeps its own location and role so the view provides coastal context without presenting nearby buoy readings as measurements at the surf break.

Surf Day Summary

AI generated

There were small, clean waves at Godrevy and Gwithian: the WNW swell was well aligned, while north-easterly winds were cross-offshore. Perranporth also recorded small, weaker, choppier waves with a shorter period; Sevenstones’ direction and exposure were unavailable.

How the stored wind forecast compared

Observed average wind was in line with the last stored forecast.

Forecast: wind mostly north-easterly; observed: wind mostly north-easterly.

Observed wind at ENE 58° was cross-offshore for Godrevy and Gwithian.

These sources describe different locations and exposures. Offshore and inshore buoy readings provide context for St Ives Bay; they are not measurements taken at the surf break itself. Directional labels use Godrevy and Gwithian as a representative north-west-facing swell window; individual peaks and beaches can differ.

Hour-by-hour replay

The charts share the same time axis so offshore signals, inshore readings and regional wind can be compared without treating them as the same measurement location.

Two line charts show wave height and wind speed through the selected day for St Ives Bay. The detailed table following the charts contains the same values in text form.
