The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a proper look at what’s coming our way for Seignosse - Les-Estagnots.

The next few days are a bit of a slow burn, but hold tight because there are some absolute gems lined up in the back half of the window. The start is patchy, and you’ll want to pick your sessions carefully, but the longer-range stuff is where the real story is.

Right now, Saturday the 12th morning, you’ve got tiny 3ft W/NW windswell at 8 seconds. The energy is weak (90) and it’s barely surfable. The wind is glassy from the ENE though, so if you’re desperate for a foam board session, it’s clean. That afternoon turns into a total write-off as a NNW cross-shore kicks up to 12 mph – don’t bother.

Sunday the 13th morning is where the whole picture flips. A nice groundswell from the NW pushes in at 4ft with a period of 13 seconds, and the energy jumps dramatically (501). Glassy SSE wind makes it clean as a whistle. This is a proper standout for the first week. The afternoon gets bumped up to 5ft but a cross-shore NNW wind at 9 mph puts a chop on it, so stick to the morning session.

Monday the 14th morning is another good call. Same NW swell at 4ft, still an 11-second period, and glassy conditions with an easterly breeze. Wave energy is moderate (389). Afternoon gets messy with that northerly cross-shore again.

We’ve got a dead patch through Tuesday the 15th and Wednesday the 16th. The wind is either onshore or cross-onshore and the quality is just not there. Don’t bother paddling out.

Thursday the 17th morning is a serious highlight. We’ve got 5ft of NW groundswell with an 11-second period, and the energy is pumping at 650. The wind is completely calm, glassy conditions – it absolutely doesn’t get better in terms of clean face. This is for the more experienced surfers. The afternoon turns to junk though as a 12 mph NNW cross-onshore ruins it.

Friday the 18th morning is clean again with a glassy SSW wind and 4ft of NW swell (251 energy). A nice little session for those who can get out.

Now, circle Saturday the 19th morning in your calendar. That’s the big one this week. The swell bumps up to 6ft from the NW with a 13-second period, and the wave energy goes through the roof (1018). Glassy conditions from the ENE wind. That is proper groundswell, powerful and lined up, but it’s pushing 6ft so it’s only for the experienced crew. Too heavy for beginners. The afternoon gets cross-shore and messy again.

Sunday the 20th morning – clean again with a light offshore ESE wind at 6 mph. Swell is 4ft NW at 11 seconds (411 energy). Very surfable, and the wind is good.

Monday the 21st morning is another standout. The swell is 5ft from the NW at 13 seconds, energy is 821, and you’ve got a light offshore easterly at 6 mph. This is a beautiful, powerful morning for those who know what they’re doing.

The trend holds into Tuesday the 22nd morning – 5ft NW swell, 11 seconds, light offshore easterly, and clean (515 energy). Again, too big for beginners, but if you’ve got the skill, this is gold.

Things start to fade from Wednesday the 23rd onward. The swell drops to 3ft and then smaller, and while you might get glassy mornings on the 23rd and 24th, the energy is gone (305 down to 145). Friday the 25th is tiny – 1ft. The last real chance is Sunday the 27th morning, where a 3ft W/NW swell with an 11-second period shows up, clean with a cross-off ESE breeze (234 energy). It’s a long period, so it will hold up well at this beach setup, but it’s a small wave.

Honestly, the best sessions are hands down Sunday 13th morning, Thursday 17th morning, and the Saturday 19th through Tuesday 22nd mornings. The 19th and 21st are the absolute peak of this whole run – big, long-period NW groundswell, clean, and powerful. The water temp is sitting at 72°F, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so the wetsuit will be a light one.

Avoid the afternoons – the north wind nearly every day puts a chop on it. This is a morning spot for the next couple of weeks.

Stay safe out there.
