| Ideal wave height | 0–2 ft |
| Ideal period | medium-period (8–16s) |
| Best swell direction | W |
| Best wind | light wind from the S |
| Best tide | high & outgoing |
These best-conditions estimates come from real sessions LazySurfer users rated highly at this break — not an editorial guess (moderate-confidence read). In the app, LazySurfer's custom deep-learning model predicts your own 1–5★ rating at about 90% exact-match accuracy (97.6% within one star). How LazySurfer works →

Frequently asked
Is Perranporth good for surfing right now?
As of the latest buoy reading (2026-06-07 00:50 UTC), Perranporth is off: the live 4–6 ft short-period swell from the SE is off its ideal W direction and is bigger than usual, and the wind is strong from the SW.
Where does LazySurfer's surf data for Perranporth come from?
LazySurfer reads public data directly from NOAA's National Data Buoy Center and the National Weather Service — the nearest NDBC wave buoy (station 44027) and the nearest NOAA tide station (EASTPORT). The same raw readings NOAA publishes, with no proprietary smoothing.
What are the best surf conditions for Perranporth?
Perranporth is most often good on a 0–2 ft medium-period (8–16s) swell from the W, with light wind from the S, on a high outgoing tide — the conditions LazySurfer surfers have logged and rated highest here.
Does LazySurfer predict whether Perranporth is good for me?
Yes. LazySurfer trains a custom deep-learning model — a PyTorch neural network with per-user embeddings, retrained weekly on real logged surf sessions from the LazySurfer community — to predict the 1-to-5 star rating you personally would give, rather than a single average rating for everyone.
