The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a tough stretch ahead. The first week and a half is pretty much a write-off for any decent paddle surfing. We’re looking at a long gap of poor conditions right through until the very end of July. The water is running at a very unusual 76.3°F at the start, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year – feels more like a bath than the Atlantic.
The first real glimmer of hope doesn’t show up until Monday the 28th of July. The morning at La Graviere is the standout. We’ve got a clean 3.9ft NW groundswell rolling in, with a solid 10-second period that’ll bring some proper shape. The wind is a glassy offshore easterly, so the surf will be smooth and lined up. The energy is moderate (257), so it’s got a bit of push without being a washing machine. This is a session for the advanced crew, as the sandbar can be tricky, but it’s the best wave on offer by a long shot.
The next decent window shapes up on the 4th of August, Tuesday morning. A clean 3.9ft WNW swell, again with a 9-second period, and a light offshore wind from the ENE. The energy is moderate (216), and the conditions look clean. It’s a solid option, but it’s a week away, so keep an eye on it.
Everything else is either too small, windy, or messy. The weekend of the 25th-26th sees a pulse of 6.6ft-6.9ft W swell, but it’s chopped to bits by fresh onshore winds – that’s more of a kite day than a surf day unless you’re an expert hunting for a beatdown. The whole run is a bit of a slog, but the 28th morning is your one to chase. Stay patient.
