The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk real talk. The surf here at Seignosse - Les Estagnots for the next couple weeks is mostly a whole lot of nothing. Tiny swell, weak energy, and wind that’s just ruining any chance of clean waves. We’re looking at combined energies in the 70s and 60s—that’s weak, flat-water stuff.
Your only real early shot is Wednesday morning, the 12th. It’s glassy—5 km/h West wind—with a tiny 2ft NW swell at 8 seconds. It’s small, but it’s smooth. Water’s a touch warmer than usual, 74°, so that’s a bonus. After that, it’s a dead zone. Thursday through next weekend (13th to 17th) is all onshore and choppy, with waves barely hitting 3ft. Poor conditions, flat energy, don’t bother.
There’s a big gap with nothing worth paddling out for until the 21st, when we finally see a bit of a pulse. The morning on the 21st is glassy with 1.0m (3ft) swell from the WNW, but it’s still just ordinary—nothing to write home about.
The real standout is Tuesday the 25th. That’s the one. Morning has 5ft of NW groundswell at a 10-second period, and it’s dead glassy with a light SSE breeze. The combined energy hits 425, which is strong, and the swell direction is spot on for this break. This is your day. The afternoon drops to 4ft but it’s still okay. The 26th morning is also decent—4ft, glassy, S wind—but it’s a step down.
Listen, everything before the 25th is a wash. This is an expert wave, and even then, it’s mostly going to be a grovel. But if you can wait it out, that Tuesday morning is your window. It’s a long-range call, so keep your fingers crossed, but if it comes together, it’ll be worth every minute of waiting.
