The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s break down the same stretch for Seignosse - Les Estagnots, but in feet and miles per hour.
It’s a tough start. The first week is mostly a write-off. The water is warm, 76°, which is much warmer than usual for this time of year, but that doesn’t help the surf. The waves are tiny, and the wind is onshore or cross-onshore, making it a choppy, bumpy mess. Even the glassy mornings don’t have enough swell to bother with.
We finally see a pulse on the morning of Friday, August 14th. The swell bumps up to 3ft from the WNW, with a period of 11 seconds, and the combined energy hits 213 (moderate wave energy). But the wind is onshore, blowing right on it, so it’s not clean.
The first real standout is the morning of Saturday, August 15th. It’s dead glassy, with a 4ft NW swell, period of 10 seconds, and combined energy of 355 (moderate wave energy). That’s clean, that’s rideable, and it’s the best we’ve got. The afternoon gets cross-onshore and ruined.
Next up, the morning of Tuesday, August 18th, brings offshore wind from the E at 6 mph, with a 5ft NW swell. The period is short at 8 seconds, but it’s clean. Combined energy is 253 (moderate wave energy). This is a good session, but expect crowds as it’s a consistent, exposed spot that draws people.
Then, the morning of Friday, August 21st, has light offshore wind from the E, a 4ft NW swell at 9 seconds, and combined energy of 242 (moderate wave energy). Another clean morning, but the afternoon gets messy with a bigger, wind-affected 6ft swell.
For the top pick, aim for the morning of the 15th. That glassy, 4ft clean swell is the one to plan around. The 18th is a solid runner-up, but the 15th is the winner.
Rusty.
