The Lowdown
Alright, let’s break down Les Estagnots in Seignosse. The water’s at 25° right now, which is much warmer than usual for this time of year, so you’ll be fine in a shorty or a spring suit.
The first few days are a washout. Saturday the 25th, you’ve got a 6 ft west swell, but it’s blowing onshore at 19 mph, making it a mess. No good. Sunday the 26th is the same story: a 5 ft NW swell with cross-onshore wind. Just forget it.
Monday the 27th is where it gets interesting. The wind swings light offshore from the NNE at 6 mph, and the swell drops to 3 ft, but it’s a long-period groundswell from the NW at 11 seconds. The energy is still moderate (277), and the conditions are clean. This is the session to target. It’s small, but it’s glassy. The long period means the waves will have some punch, and the sets will be spaced out, making it easier to get out back.
Tuesday the 28th keeps that clean window open. The morning has a 4 ft NW swell with a light ESE offshore wind at 6 mph, and clean conditions. The energy is 311, so it’s got a bit more weight. The afternoon is still clean with a 4 ft NW swell and a light offshore breeze from the north. Both sessions are good.
The rest of the week is a slow fade. Wednesday the 29th is back to onshore wind, and the swell drops. Thursday the 30th has a glassy morning with 3 ft, but it’s weak energy (101). It’s surfable, but nothing special. Friday the 31st is tiny, with 2 ft. The first week of August is more of the same – small, inconsistent, and mostly poor.
Your best bet is Monday the 27th and Tuesday the 28th. The swell is small, but the wind is offshore, and the waves will be clean. If you’re a beginner, the 6 ft on Saturday is too big and messy, but the 3 ft to 4 ft on Monday and Tuesday is perfect. For experts, it’s a long groundswell, so it’ll be better on a point or reef, but Les Estagnots is a beach break, so you’ll get some fun walls.
There’s a gap of poor conditions from Wednesday the 29th through to the start of August, with only a few glassy mornings that are “ordinary.” The best move is to get out early on Monday or Tuesday.
