Table - best surf conditions forecast for Seignosse - Les Estagnots over the next 16 days.
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into what’s coming up for Seignosse - Les Estagnots. I’ll be straight – the next week and a half is a bit of a grind. We’ve got a long stretch of poor surf, with the only real bright spot showing up on the morning of Monday, July 20.
The water is sitting at 74°, which is a staggering 6° warmer than normal for this time of year. That’s very unusual, so you’ll be surfing in shorts and a rashguard for sure.
We start the outlook on Saturday, July 11, with a small 2 ft swell from the WNW, but the wind is a cross-off and the energy is weak (120). The call is poor surf, so don’t bother. Sunday, July 12, is a similar story – a 2 ft swell from the WNW with a 10-second period, but only 84 combined energy. It’s surfable but very ordinary. Monday, July 13, brings a 4 ft swell from the WNW with a short 7-second period, but the wind is onshore and the energy is only 129. Poor conditions continue. The rest of the week from Tuesday, July 14, through to Saturday, July 18, is a dead zone of tiny waves, poor conditions, and onshore winds. There’s a gap of several days with no real recommendations.
Sunday, July 19, afternoon shows a bump to 5 ft from the WNW with a 6-second period, but the wind is cross-onshore and the energy is 157. Still, it’s poor surf. The wind and chop will ruin it.
Now, here’s the one to circle. Monday, July 20, morning. That’s your best bet. The swell is 5 ft from the WNW with an 8-second period, and the energy is a solid 227 – moderate wave energy. The wind is from the NE at 6 mph, and it’s glassy. The forecast says good surf conditions. The swell direction is a solid match for the optimum W direction. This is the standout. It’s going to be clean, and the waves will have some push. The crowd profile is that it’s "often" busy, so don’t expect to have it to yourself.
After that, Tuesday, July 21, morning is surfable but very ordinary with a 3 ft swell from the NW and 105 energy. The rest of the week from Wednesday, July 22, through to Friday, July 24, is a mix of tiny, onshore, and poor conditions. Then on Saturday, July 25, the swell jumps to 7 ft from the NW, but with 15 mph onshore winds and 788 energy (strong wave energy), it’s a messy, blown-out mess. This is only for experts, and even then, the wind is a problem.
The final standout is Sunday, July 26, morning. The swell is 5 ft from the NW with a 10-second period, and the wind is offshore from the E at 6 mph, giving you clean conditions. The energy is 469 (moderate to strong). This is another promising window, but it’s a long-range call, so less certain. The size is already pushing into expert territory with the 5 ft.
So, to sum it up: Monday, July 20, morning at Les Estagnots is your best chance. The water is much warmer than normal, and the glassy wind will make it clean. Sunday, July 26, morning is one to watch for the future, but it’s a long way off.
Rusty.
