Updates in hr min s Forecast update imminent
Right folks, Rusty here. Let’s look at what’s on offer at Guidel Plages. To be honest, it’s a pretty bleak start to the outlook. The entire first 12 days of the forecast are a write-off with nothing but poor surf conditions. The waves are just too small and weak to bother with, and the wind is often onshore or messy. For a spot that’s very consistent, that’s a real bummer, but it happens.
The first real glimpse of something surfable doesn’t appear until Sunday the 19th of July. The morning is still marginal, but by Sunday afternoon, things come together. Swell bumps up to 6ft from the WNW, with a combined energy of 670 – that’s solid, moderate energy. The wind goes clean, cross-off from the NNW. This is a standout window. The water is about average for the time of year here. That’s the day to circle.
The following Monday morning (20th July) drops back to 3ft from the WNW with a combined energy of 182, and it’s a bit cross-shore, so not as good. Then Tuesday morning (21st July) offers another chance with a 4ft W swell, combined energy of 150, and clean cross-off winds from the north. It’s surfable, but very ordinary. The afternoon bumps up to 4ft and 236 energy, still clean, but it’s not the quality of that Sunday.
The best bet is easily the afternoon of Sunday the 19th of July. That’s your one real standout in the whole 16 days. For the rest, it’s a waiting game.
Rusty.

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