The Lowdown
Right, let’s have a look at what’s on the cards, folks.
Well, to be honest, the next couple of weeks around Seignosse - Les Estagnots look pretty grim for a paddle. We’ve got a long stretch of poor surf conditions ahead. The water is sitting at 75°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so that’s about the only nice thing I can say.
We start off on Friday the 14th of August, but honestly, there’s nothing to get excited about. The combined energy is weak (142), with a small 3ft west-northwest swell, but it’s getting chopped up by onshore winds. That same pattern sticks around through the weekend and into the next week. Saturday the 15th is a write-off, Sunday the 16th is a little clearer but it’s still cross-onshore.
On Monday the 18th, the wind goes glassy early, but there’s barely a ripple out there – just 2ft of short-period junk. That’s not surf.
Thursday the 20th of August morning offers a hint of something surfable, with glassy conditions and a 2ft northwest swell, period 11 seconds. The combined energy is moderate (125), but the waves are ordinary, and it gets messy again in the afternoon.
The best we see in the whole window is Friday the 21st of August morning. A 5ft northwest swell, 10-second period, with the combined energy pushing up to a moderate 453. Winds are onshore from the west-northwest though, so it’s not clean. This is a wave that will be too much for beginners, and it’s only really going to appeal to the experts out there as it’s a bit of a beast in the shorebreak. Given the onshore wind and the beach setup, this looks more interesting for the kite crew than a paddle.
After that, it’s back to very ordinary or poor surf. We get a clean, glassy morning on Tuesday the 25th of August with a 3ft north-northwest swell, but it’s just not enough to overcome the overall poor quality.
In short, there’s no standout session here. A long, frustrating blank run for an area where the forecasts can change. Keep an eye on it, but don’t hold your breath.
Stay warm,
Rusty
