The Lowdown
Alright lads, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s on the menu for Seignosse - Les Estagnots.
We’re looking at a slow start, but there’s a couple of real standouts coming up. The water is sitting at 74°F right now, which is 4°F warmer than usual for this time of year – that’s a proper bonus, feels like the ocean’s still in summer mode.
The first chance to get out is Monday morning, 31st of August. There’s a 6ft swell from the WNW, with a period of 10 seconds, and the combined energy is moderate at 609. The wind is onshore from the west at 9 mph, so it’s a bit bumpy. Not the cleanest, but there’s something to ride.
Tuesday morning, 1st of September, looks much better. The swell drops to 5ft from the WNW, but the wind turns offshore from the east at just 3 mph. That’s glassy, clean conditions. The combined energy is 448, still moderate. This is a solid morning for the experts to get some clean lines.
The next big moment is Saturday morning, 5th of September. The swell is 3ft, but the period jumps to 13 seconds – that’s a proper groundswell. The combined energy is 508, and it’s completely glassy, with zero wind from the south. This is a standout. That long-period swell will groom the waves, and the offshore wind will keep them clean. Smaller size, but the quality will be there.
Sunday morning, 6th of September, is another one to circle. The swell is 5ft from the NW, period of 12 seconds, and the combined energy is 655. It’s glassy again, with an easterly breeze at 3 mph. That’s a beautiful setup for punchy, well-shaped waves. The long period gives you those longer lulls, making paddling out easier. This is the best session of the whole run.
After that, the surf drops off through the week, with a long gap of small, messy conditions from the 7th to the 14th of September. Nothing worth paddling out for.
Then, on Tuesday morning, 15th of September, we see a big spike. The swell is 7ft from the WNW, with a period of 14 seconds, and the combined energy is a massive 1610 – that’s strong wave energy. But the wind is onshore from the west at 9 mph, so it’s going to be a bit of a messy, powerful beast. That size is only for experts. It’s a promising long-range signal, but the wind makes it uncertain.
So, the bottom line: Get out on Tuesday morning, 1st September, for the offshore morning. But the real highlights are the glassy sessions on Saturday morning, 5th September, and Sunday morning, 6th September. Those are the cleanest, most promising windows in the whole 16 days.
Rusty.
