The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it for Seignosse - Les Estagnots. We’ve got a long window ahead, but it’s a bit of a slow burner at the start, so don’t rush out just yet.

The first week is mostly small and messy. The water is running a whopping 6°F warmer than usual at 76°F, which is very unusual for this time of year. For the first few days, we’re looking at tiny, short-period windswell from the NNW, mostly under 3 ft, with weak combined energy (84), and the wind is all over the shop – cross-on, onshore, and choppy. It’s not really worth paddling out for. The glassy moments on Tuesday morning and Thursday morning are tempting, but with only 3 ft on a 6-second period, it’s just ordinary.

There’s a real gap here. From the 20th through to the 24th, there’s nothing to get excited about. The swell is tiny, the period is short, and the wind is mostly messy. It’s a quiet stretch.

Then we get a pulse on Saturday the 25th. The swell jumps to 6 ft from the W, with a period of 7 seconds, and the combined energy hits 304 (moderate). But the wind is a fresh breeze from the W, 22 mph, with risk of tstorms. It’s just poor surf conditions. Sunday the 26th is similar, with 4 ft onshore slop. Not a good look.

Now, the real standout is shaping up for the end of July and into August. On Tuesday the 28th morning, we’re looking at 4 ft from the NW on a 9-second period (groundswell, decent shape), combined energy of 208 (moderate), with glassy conditions. That’s clean. The break is consistent, but it’s an expert spot, and crowds are often there.

But the best window is Wednesday the 29th morning. The swell is 5 ft from the NW, period 10 seconds, combined energy 327 (moderate), and the wind is offshore from the E at 6 mph. That’s clean, lined-up waves. This is the pick of the run. The swell direction matches the optimum from the W, so it’s working well.

Thursday the 30th morning is another good one with 4 ft, 9 seconds, glassy, and clean. But Wednesday is the call.

Looking further out, on Saturday the 1st of August afternoon, the swell picks up to 5 ft from the NW, but the cross-on wind makes it marginal. Then on Sunday the 2nd, the models are showing a massive 15 ft from the WNW on a 10-second period, combined energy of 3780 (very strong). That is way too big for this break, even for experts. It’s a pass.

After that, the swell drops back down to 4 ft on Monday the 3rd, but it’s cross-on and ordinary. The window closes out with tiny 2 ft stuff on the 4th.

So, the best bets are Wednesday the 29th and Thursday the 30th mornings. The 29th is the standout with clean offshore wind and a solid 5 ft NW groundswell. Get on it.

Rusty out.
