The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here, checkin' in with the outlook for Lesconil. Gotta be straight with you, it's lookin' pretty grim for the next couple of weeks.
Let's look at Lesconil, a beach and reef setup. For the full forecast period, there's nothing that's really gonna get the blood pumping. The water temperature is sittin' around 66°, which feels about average for this time of year. The problem is, the swell is tiny and the wind is just never in the right spot for long enough. We're looking at a big fat gap of no real recommendations from now all the way through. There's no standout day, no session to circle on the calendar.
What we have is a whole lot of nothing. The swell energy is mostly weak, with readings like 82 and 73, barely registering a pulse. A few times we see a bit more oomph, like on the 4th of August with a combined energy of 135 and a 3ft swell from the WSW, but with a short period of 7 seconds and cross-shore winds, it’s just slop. The wind is either cross, cross-off, or straight onshore, never giving us that clean, glassy window we're after. There's a brief moment on the morning of the 8th of August where the wind goes glassy, but even then, it's on a tiny 3ft, 7-second swell. It might be surfable for a total beginner on a foamie but "very ordinary" is the polite way to put it.
Honestly, this setup looks way more interesting for a kite than a paddle. The wind is strong enough at times, and the waves are just too weak and crumbly to push a surfboard. It's a rough outlook, lads. Sometimes the ocean just goes to sleep. Forecasts can change, but for now, don't bother waxing up.
Rusty.

Information about the Lesconil Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Lesconil provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Lesconil can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Lesconil surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Lesconil) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Lesconil may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
Lesconil is 5 km (3 miles) from Loctudy. If you plan a holiday in Finistere - Brittany, look for hotels and other accommodation in Loctudy. Loctudy has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
