The Lowdown

Yo, checking in from the local sandbar. The forecast for Seignosse - Les Estagnots is a bit of a rollercoaster, but there are a couple of sessions that are screaming to be surfed. Water temp is about normal for this time of year, so you know the drill.

Kicking off Thursday the 20th morning, it's looking glassy. We've got a 4ft NW swell, with a period of 11 seconds – that's proper groundswell energy, moderate (414) – and the wind is flat calm from the west at 3 mph. That's a dream combo. The afternoon? Forget it, the wind switches onshore and messes it all up.

Friday the 21st is a total loss. There's a 6ft swell, but that cross-on wind is just gonna make it a washing machine. Not worth the paddle out.

Now, Saturday the 22nd morning is the real standout of the week. Clear skies, a clean 4ft NW swell, period of 9 seconds, and the wind is offshore from the east at 9 mph. The energy is moderate (266), but man, the waves will be clean. That's where you want to be. It's gonna be a classic morning.

Sunday the 23rd it drops right off. Only 2ft of swell, and even with offshore wind, there's nothing to ride. The energy is weak (61). Have a lay in.

From Monday the 24th all the way through to Saturday the 29th, it's a total flat spell. The swell dissipates to almost nothing, the winds are all wrong – mostly cross-on or onshore. The energy readings drop to single digits. That's a dead stretch of nearly a week.

But hold up, things turn back on Sunday the 30th of August. We get a clean 6ft WNW swell, a 9-second period, with a light cross-offshore breeze from the southeast at 3 mph. The energy is moderate (402), and the conditions are clean. That's another top-tier window.

Monday the 31st morning keeps the party going. Offshore wind from the east at 6 mph, a clean 5ft NW swell with an 8-second period and moderate energy (355). Fun, rideable waves before the breeze shifts in the afternoon.

The beginning of September gets messy, but then we get a serious looking long-range call for Thursday the 3rd of September. It's a long way off, so be wary, but the numbers are mind-blowing. A glassy morning with a 7ft WNW swell, a 10-second period, and very strong wave energy (970). For a west-facing spot like Les Estagnots, if that glassy offshore wind from the east holds, that's gonna be a big, powerful, clean day. Only for the experts at that size, but the potential is epic. The afternoon will see the wind cross it up.

So here's the game plan. This week, don't miss Thursday the 20th morning and Saturday the 22nd morning. Next week, lock in Sunday the 30th morning and Monday the 31st morning. And if you're a gambling man, put a star next to Thursday the 3rd September morning – it could be the wave of the month, but it's a promise from far away. Les Estagnots draws a crowd when it's on, especially Saturday, so get there early.

That's the read on it. Stay frothy.

Rusty.
