Tregantle Beach faces SW, open to the prevailing swell and wind. For e-foiling that is the hard direction: expect the surface to be workable only when the forecast genuinely drops, not on an average day.
Today's wind is cross-onshore at 10 kn. At that strength expect a textured surface for e-foiling, and the shelter of the bay to matter more than the forecast number.
Over the published window Tregantle Beach clears 60/100 for e-foiling at Intermediate, Advanced, Expert levels — that is who this spot is for on this sport. Today, 2 of 10 daylight hours clear that line at Intermediate.

Satellite-derived bathymetry with 10 m pixels and 10 cm vertical resolution out to ~40 m depth. The shape of the seabed is what determines where and how waves break.
Most apps run a single global model at 9–25 km. We blend regional NWP from national meteorological offices at 1.3–2 km — UK Met Office UKV, Météo-France AROME HD, ItaliaMeteo ICON-2I — with ECMWF IFS for the 8-day horizon. Finer resolution means the sea breeze, cliff funnelling and bay shadowing that changes everything for a session.
A nearshore wave model propagates the spectrum across the bathymetric mesh — modelling refraction, shoaling, dissipation, focusing and breaking as it goes. Most apps stop at swell + wind. We go further.
10 sport models × 4 ability levels weight wave height, period, wind, tide and breaking conditions differently — calibrated against ridden sessions so the scores mean what they say.
A remote Atlantic beach below steep cliffs on Whitsand Bay's western edge, reached via a steep cliff path. Sandy beach break with rocky outcrops gives lefts and rights on SW swell with NE wind; strong rip currents are the main hazard. An active MOD firing range sits above and can close the beach without warning. RNLI lifeguards patrol mid-May to late September; high tide nearly covers the beach, exit can be wave-washed.
