The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here with a look at what's on offer for our stretch of coast. Let's be straight with each other – the next week and a half is a bit of a slow grind, but there's a little something to keep an eye on if you're patient.
Right now, and for the next several days, we're looking at small, weak surf with poor conditions. The combined wave energy is way down, sitting in the low double digits (23) and barely climbing at times. It’s not going to be worth paddling out for most of us. We've got a few windows of glassy conditions – like Tuesday the 11th in the morning when the wind drops to nothing, and the water temp is about what you'd expect for this time of year – but the swell is just too small at 2 ft from the NNW with a short period of 9 seconds. It’s surfable but very ordinary. There’s a long stretch here with no real standouts, just small, choppy, onshore slop.
Now, if you're willing to wait, things start to show a pulse from the 15th of August. The swell picks up a little, hitting 4 ft from the WNW, but the wind is still messy. The real standout, the one day that’s got me talking, is Saturday the 22nd of August in the morning at Seignosse - Les Estagnots. We've got a clean 4 ft swell from the NW, with a period of 9 seconds. The combined energy is a solid moderate (253), which is the best we've seen in the whole run. What makes this one special is the wind: a light offshore breeze from the south. That's going to clean up the break nicely. This is an exposed, consistent spot, but it’s an expert-level wave, and with that quality, expect it to be popular – it’s a spot that often has a crowd. This is your best bet, the one morning to circle on the calendar.
The following morning, Sunday the 23rd, drops back down again. So, it’s a long wait for one good morning, but that Saturday session looks like the real deal. Keep your eyes on it.
