The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it for Seignosse - Les Estagnots. This one’s a bit of a slow burn, but there’s a couple of windows that’ll get your blood pumping if you’re patient.

Right now, we’re looking at a stretch of very small, weak swell. The water is a balmy 76°, which is a whopping 5° warmer than usual for this time of year – that’s really unusual, you’ll be surfing in a bath. The first proper surf we see is a tiny 1ft WNW groundswell with a long 10-second period on Wednesday morning the 26th of August. The wind is light and cross-offshore from the ESE, so it’s clean, but the combined energy is only weak (44) – it’s barely a ripple. It stays like that through Thursday morning, but that’s honestly just for the longboarders or a splash.

Things get a little more interesting on the 29th, Saturday morning. The swell picks up to a clean-looking 5ft from the NW with a 9-second period. The wind is glassy from the ESE, zero wind, so it’ll be clean as a whistle. The combined energy jumps to moderate (323). That’s a decent session for a confident surfer. Sunday morning the 30th is very similar, glassy again with a 5ft swell from the WNW, but the afternoon winds get choppy and cross-onshore, so you’ll want to be in the water early.

The real standout, though, is the window you want to circle on your calendar. Wednesday morning the 9th of September. This is the one. We’ve got a solid 6ft groundswell from the WNW with a very long 13-second period. That’s a lot of power, with combined energy hitting strong (1052). The wind is glassy, dead calm from the east. This is an expert-level spot, and with a swell over 5ft, it’s not for beginners. For the experienced crew, it’s going to be firing. Keep in mind that a long period like this will make the waves a bit more lined up and powerful, and the sets will be spaced out, making the paddle out a bit easier. The afternoon on the 9th is still good, but the wind swings cross-shore. The 9th is the morning to be there.

Before that, there’s a big lump of swell on the 7th of September – 8ft and 7ft with a very long 13-second period, but the wind is a mess, cross-on or onshore, and the conditions are marginal at best. That’s a big, bumpy, dangerous mess for the experts only, and honestly, with that much wind and size, it’s looking more like a kite-surfing show than a paddle session.

For the rest of the run, there are a few other mornings with clean offshore winds and waist-to-chest high swell, like the 1st of September and the 3rd of September, but they aren't as punchy as the 9th. The biggest gap with no decent recommendations is the stretch from the 26th through the 28th, but that’s a pretty normal pattern for this area – a few days of small stuff before a pulse.

Rusty.
