The Lowdown
Imperial Version
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for the Larmor Plage region.
Well, I gotta be straight with you – this is a tough one. The outlook for the next sixteen days is a bit of a heartbreaker, with a long, bleak stretch staring us right in the face. We're looking at a solid blank run from now until the morning of Saturday, August 8th. That's over a week with nothing worth paddling out for. The energy just isn't there, and the wind is a mess.
The whole picture changes on the morning of Saturday, August 8th. We get a late pulse of life. The swell will be a clean 4ft out of the SW, pushing a moderate 144 units of combined energy. The wind will be a whisper-light cross-offshore breeze from the NW, making it a glassy morning. The period is a short 7 seconds, so it's local wind swell, not a groundswell, but for a beach break like Larmor Plage, it'll be the best we've seen in days. The water is 65°F and sitting right on the normal mark for this time of year.
Sunday, August 9th is the big one, but it comes with a massive caveat. The swell jumps to 7ft out of the SW, with a combined energy reading of 634 – that's strong, serious energy. The period is still short at 8 seconds, so it's going to be a powerful, thumping, and messy beast. The wind is onshore in the morning and cross-onshore in the afternoon, which will chop it right up. This is strictly for the experts only, the crew with the big boards and the even bigger balls. For 99% of us, it's a day to watch from the beach, or honestly, the wind and power make it a setup that looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
After that, we're back into the doldrums. The swell drops off quickly and the rest of the forecast is a mix of tiny, weak waves and poor wind. There’s a brief moment on the morning of Friday, August 14th with a clean offshore breeze from the N, but the swell is a pathetic 3ft from the E with a period of just 4 seconds. It's a beautiful, clean, and completely flat wave. That’s the story, lads – a couple of fleeting moments of hope in a long, quiet stretch.
Rusty.

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