Rusty here again, same story, different numbers. Kaolins is looking rough for a while.

The water’s a touch warmer than usual, sitting at about 67°, but that’s the only warm news. For the first 11 days it’s flatlined – nothing but small, choppy, or onshore junk. Not worth a second look.

Your one shot is the morning of Monday, July 27th. Kaolins gets a 4ft swell out of the west, period of 9 seconds. The combined energy is moderate at 181. Wind flips offshore from the NNE at just 3 mph, so it’ll be glassy and clean. It’s an inconsistent reef, tricky and for advanced surfers only. Crowds can be a factor, so be ready to share if you score it. The afternoon goes onshore and messy, so that morning window is everything.

A long quiet stretch before that, so don’t hold your breath. Things can change quick though.

Rusty.

Information about the Kaolins Surf forecast

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

Kaolin is 5 km (3 miles) from the city of Ploemeur. If you plan a holiday in Morbihan - Brittany, look for hotels and other accommodation in Ploemeur. Ploemeur has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
