The Lowdown
Alright, surfers, Rusty here with the look ahead for Larmor Plage. Let's be straight with you – the next couple of weeks are going to be a real test of patience. We've got a long, quiet spell to get through before any proper waves show.
First up, the immediate forecast from Tuesday the 21st right through to the end of July is a real bummer. We're looking at tiny, weak swell – generally 1 foot or less – with a mix of cross-off and cross-shore winds. The wave energy is barely registering, with values as low as 7 to 24 (weak energy) on the combined energy scale. Everything is rated as "poor surf conditions," so honestly, you're better off leaving the board at home.
There's a gap of several days with no real surf on the cards. The conditions stay pretty flat through to Saturday the 25th and Sunday the 26th, with nothing to get excited about. The wind will be up and down, but without any swell to work with, it's all just a flat, choppy mess.
Now, things finally start to look a little more interesting around Monday, July 27th. We get a pulse of WNW swell pushing in at 4 feet with a period of 9 seconds. The wave energy jumps up to 205 (moderate wave energy), which is a welcome change. On the Monday morning, we are looking at clean conditions with a gentle offshore breeze from the NW. It's surfable, but the description says "very ordinary conditions." It’s a small step up, but nothing to write home about.
Then, on Tuesday the 28th, the morning looks like the real highlight of the entire forecast. We get a nice 3 feet WNW swell, but the key is the wind: light offshore from the North, keeping things clean. The wave energy is 88 (moderate wave energy). The swell direction from the WNW is a good match for Larmor Plage. This is the one to target if you can get out there. The afternoon sees the wind swing onshore and the surf get messy, so make sure you are out early.
After that, from Wednesday the 29th onward, it's back to small, weak, and mostly messy conditions. We get some cross-shore winds and onshore winds that will chop things up, and the swell drops back down below 2 feet. The energy levels fall away into the weak category again. The window of good waves is really narrow, so make the most of that Tuesday morning.
Stay patient, lads. Keep an eye on the forecast, because that Tuesday morning on the 28th might be the only real chance for a surfable wave in the next two weeks.
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.
Larmor Plage is 5 km (3 miles) from Lorient. If you plan a holiday in Morbihan - Brittany, look for hotels and other accommodation in Lorient. Lorient has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
