The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it for Seignosse - Les Estagnots.
Honestly, looking at the next 16 days, it’s a tough run. The surf is mostly small and messy, with a lot of cross-onshore or onshore wind messing things up. The water is sitting at 74°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so at least you won’t be freezing your arse off while you’re sitting there waiting for a clean one.
The first real chance of something decent doesn’t show up until Tuesday the 25th. That’s a long stretch of poor conditions. The period from the 12th all the way through to the 24th is filled with small, weak swell and crummy wind. There’s a bit of a pulse around the 20th and 21st, with swell heights reaching 6 ft and combined energy of 499 (moderate wave energy), but it’s all cross-onshore wind and described as choppy. Not worth getting excited about.
The standout is Tuesday morning, 25th August. That’s your best bet. We’ve got a 4 ft swell from the WNW, with a period of 9 seconds. The wind is offshore from the ESE at 6 mph, which is clean. The combined energy is 247 (moderate wave energy). That’s the only window where the stars align: a bit of size, clean wind, and a decent enough period. The crowd profile says “often,” so expect company. It’s an expert-level break, and with 4 ft, it’s not too big for experienced surfers.
After that, the 26th has a morning with offshore wind again, but the swell drops to 3 ft. It’s surfable but very ordinary. Then the 27th sees a bigger swell (7 ft to 8 ft), but it’s onshore wind and the conditions are described as marginal or poor. That’s a skip.
So, the long and short of it: don’t get your hopes up for the next couple of weeks. The only real window is the morning of Tuesday the 25th. Mark it in your calendar. Before that, it’s mostly a waiting game.
Rusty.
