The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s cut to the chase. The next 16 days at Larmor Plage are a bummer. There’s a big gap of dead flat, messy surf until the 6th of August. From now until then, it's all poor conditions with weak, small waves. The combined energy is low, peaking at 101 on the 28th of July, then dropping to single or double digits for most of the run. The winds are mostly onshore or cross-shore, ruining any chance of a clean wave. The swell periods are short, between 6 and 10 seconds. For a spot that’s fairly exposed to the SW, it's a real letdown.
The only half-decent call is on Thursday morning, 6th of August. At Larmor Plage, you’ll get an offshore wind from the N at 10 km/h, which will clean things up. The swell is a small 0.9m from the WSW with a 7-second period. The energy is weak at 93, so it’s not punchy, but it’s the only time the wind is right. The water temp is about average for the time of year, 19.2°C. It’s a beginner spot, but it’s inconsistent, so you’ll be waiting around. Crowds are possible, so you might have company.
After that, it’s back to the doldrums. The next faint hope is on Saturday morning, 8th of August, with glassy conditions and a SE wind at 5 km/h. The swell is tiny, 0.8m from the WNW with a 6-second period, and the energy is a weak 67. It’s surfable, but barely. The rest of the second week is a mix of cross-shore winds and tiny, weak swells. The 11th of August offers another glassy morning with a 0.9m, 8-second W swell and 145 energy, but it’s still very ordinary. This is a rough outlook. The spot is inconsistent, and the forecasts show a long, dry run. Don’t hold your breath.
Short Range ForecastMostly dry. Warm (max 26°C on Tue afternoon, min 15°C on Thu night). Winds increasing (calm on Tue night, fresh winds from the WSW by Thu afternoon). | Days 4-6 Weather SummaryMostly dry. Warm (max 27°C on Fri night, min 14°C on Fri night). Wind will be generally light. | ||||||||||||||||||||

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.
