The Lowdown
Right then, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Audierne over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a pretty grim start. The first week and a half is a total write-off. We’re looking at a solid 10-day stretch of tiny, weak waves with nothing worth paddling out for. The swell energy is barely registering – we’re talking values like 34 (weak energy) and the like. The water temp is sitting at 19°, which is a good 2° warmer than normal for this time of year. That’s pretty unusual, feels like a bath.
The first real glimmer of hope doesn’t show up until Thursday, the 24th of July. Even then, it’s marginal. Thursday morning brings a 4ft swell from the west at 13 seconds, but the wind is a cross-shore, creating a bit of chop. The energy is suddenly strong at 902 (strong wave energy), but the conditions are just “surfable but very ordinary.”
Now, the standout. Keep your eyes on Saturday, the 25th of July. That’s the one. We’ve got a 8ft west swell rolling in with a 10-second period. The energy is huge – 1087 (very strong wave energy). But the real beauty is the wind: glassy in the morning and clean cross-off in the afternoon. That’s a recipe for some proper waves. This is a reef break for experts only, and with that size, it’s definitely for the experienced crew. It’s a fairly consistent spot, so expect a few other locals out.
Sunday the 26th looks messy again with onshore winds, but then Monday the 27th throws another surprise: a 8ft west swell with glassy conditions and 865 (strong wave energy). That’s another excellent morning session for the experts, but the wind swings cross-off in the afternoon, so it’s still good.
So, to sum it up: don’t bother until the 24th at the earliest. The real gold is Saturday the 25th and Monday the 27th. If you can get out there, those are the days.
Rusty.

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