The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking for Seignosse - Les Estagnots over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a bit of a tough stretch coming up. We’ve got a long, dry gap of nothing really worth paddling out for from now until the 23rd of August. The surf is tiny, the periods are short, and the wind is mostly on it or cross-on. It’s going to be flat and bumpy, so save your energy.
We finally see a flicker of life on the morning of Sunday the 23rd. The wind goes glassy, but the swell is a tiny 1ft with a short period. It’s surfable, but very ordinary. That afternoon, the swell jumps to 5ft but the period drops, so it’s messy.
Now, here’s the one worth getting excited about. Monday the 24th of August is the standout. The morning shows a clean 8ft swell from the WNW, period of 9 seconds, and glassy conditions. The combined swell energy is strong at 992. This is legit. But – and it’s a big but – by the afternoon, the swell spikes to 10ft with energy hitting 1441, and the wind turns onshore. That is big, heavy water. At Les Estagnots, this is only for experts. If you’re not rock-solid, give it a miss.
Tuesday the 25th of August offers a cleaner window. The morning brings a 5ft WNW swell with a light cross-offshore wind and good energy (377). It’s a much more manageable size for a good session before things back off again later in the week.
The water temp is sitting at 75°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so you can leave the thick rubber at home.
So, the pick of the fortnight is Monday the 24th for the brave, and Tuesday the 25th for a more comfortable, cleaner session. Everything else is a write-off until then.
Rusty.
