The Lowdown
G’day, I’m Rusty, and here’s a look at the surf coming up for Seignosse - Les Estagnots.
Right off the bat, we’ve got a bit of a messy, ordinary run to start with. The water is sitting at 73°F, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year – a real treat if you’re getting in.
The first few days are pretty flat and average. Thursday 10th sees a cross-shore breeze messing up a 4ft NW swell, with weak energy (271). Not worth paddling out for. Friday 11th morning is a tease: glassy, zero wind, but only 2ft of weak NW swell (73). It’s surfable but very ordinary. Saturday 12th morning is similar – glassy with 3ft (90) – but still small and weak.
The first real stand-out comes on Sunday 13th morning. The swell jumps to 4ft from the NW, with a very long period of 13 seconds and strong energy (501). There’s a light cross-onshore wind, so it’s not perfect, but it’s a big step up in power. The afternoon stays similar with 5ft (531) but a bit more chop.
Monday 14th morning is clean, with offshore wind from the east and 4ft of NW swell, period 11 seconds, and moderate energy (396). That’s a good, solid session for experts.
We hit a real rough patch from Tuesday 15th through to Wednesday 16th afternoon – strong onshore winds, rain, and messy, choppy waves. The swell is there (5ft to 6ft) but it’s blown out. Not worth it.
The best of the whole run is Thursday 17th morning. Glassy, 5ft of NW swell with a 10-second period, and very strong energy (559). Expect very good, clean surf. This is the one to circle. The afternoon gets messy again.
Friday 18th morning is another clean one with offshore wind, 4ft (229), and good conditions. Then there’s a couple of days of poor onshore wind Saturday 19th to Sunday 20th morning, but that Sunday morning has a clean, gentle offshore with 4ft (225).
Now, the true standout for the forecast period: Monday 21st morning. It’s pristine: offshore wind from the east, 5ft of NW swell, with a very long 13-second period, and massive energy (905). This is big, powerful, and clean. For experts only. The afternoon turns cross-shore and choppy.
Tuesday 22nd morning is glassy with 4ft (318) – good but smaller. Then Wednesday 23rd gets messy again.
Thursday 24th morning is another cracker: offshore wind, 5ft of NW swell, 12-second period, and strong energy (736). Expect very good, clean conditions. The afternoon gets a cross-shore bump.
Finally, Friday 25th morning closes out the run with clean offshore wind, 4ft (331), and good conditions.
So, the pick of the fortnight is Monday 21st morning for the big, powerful, clean NW swell. If you want something a bit earlier, Thursday 17th morning is also a belter.
Stay safe, Rusty.
