The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty again, this time in feet and miles. Seignosse - Les Bourdaines is still the only game in town, and right now it’s lookin’ pretty grim for the first part of the forecast. Water temp is 75°F, a whopping 7°F above average—unusually warm, but that ain’t helpin’ the waves.
First week and a half: total doldrums. Swell barely reaches 1–2ft, mostly from the NW, with short periods of 5–7 seconds. Wind’s either onshore or side-onshore, so even the glassy mornings (like Thursday the 16th and Saturday the 18th) offer only weak ankle-biters. Around the 23rd and 24th, swell bumps up to 3–4ft, but it’s blown out with onshore wind and poor shape. Not for surfers—kite surfers might find something.
Now for the good stuff. Monday the 27th morning is the standout: a solid 6ft WNW groundswell, 11-second period, and dead calm wind—glassy as a lake. Combined energy is 681, so there’s real power. At an expert beach/jetty break, that’s gonna be hollow and fast. Crowds can show up (“sometimes” level), but the quality will make it crowded for good reason. Because it’s a beach break with a longer period, the waves might close out a bit, but the west-ish direction lines up well with the jetty.
Wednesday the 29th morning is another solid option: 6ft swell (9-second period, 498 energy) and offshore east wind. Not quite as clean as the 27th, but still darn good surf. Those two mornings are your best bets in a long, flat spell.
Bottom line: almost two weeks of junk, then a late-July window that’s worth waitin’ for. Forecast confidence is okay for the near term, but that 27th is the real gem.
Catch you out there,
Rusty
