The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking for Lesconil over the next couple of weeks.

We’re kicking off with a bit of a flat and messy start, but there’s a solid pulse of groundswell building through Monday and Tuesday that’s worth getting excited about. The standout window looks to be Monday the 7th and Tuesday the 8th. After that, the swell backs off and we’re into a long stretch of smaller, cleaner but less powerful waves, with plenty of onshore chop to dodge through the second week. Nothing huge, but some clean windows if you’re patient.

Lesconil (beach and reef) – The first real action comes Monday morning, September 7th. We’ve got a clean 5 ft swell from the west, with a long period of 13 seconds, meaning real groundswell energy. The wind is a light cross-offshore breeze, so the face will be clean. The combined energy is solid (905). That afternoon, the swell pushes up to 6 ft from the west, still with a 13-second period, and a moderate cross-offshore wind. The energy jumps to 1177, which is proper. This is the pick of the whole forecast for experienced surfers – that 6 ft with long-period west swell and clean conditions is a rare combo. Beginners might find it a bit much over 5 ft, so Monday afternoon is for the crew who know what they’re doing.

Tuesday morning, September 8th, still has a clean 5 ft west swell with a 10-second period and cross-offshore wind. Energy is moderate (450). It’s still good, but the period has dropped, so the waves won’t have the same grunt as Monday. Tuesday afternoon drops to 4 ft, still clean but smaller.

Wednesday the 9th brings clean offshore winds from the NNW, with a 4 ft west-northwest swell (10-second period). The energy is moderate (370). It’s a fun, clean day for a longboard or a fish, but nothing to write home about.

Thursday the 10th is glassy in the morning with a tiny 3 ft swell, and the energy is weak (141). It’s surfable but very ordinary.

Second week drop-off: From Friday the 11th onwards, the consistency and quality nose-dive. Friday morning gets a messy 6 ft cross-shore swell with short period (8 seconds) and strong onshore wind – that’s a kite-surfing breeze, not a paddling day. Friday afternoon cleans up with a moderate offshore wind and 5 ft swell, but it’s short period (8 seconds) and energy is moderate (342). It’s a salvageable session, but not a standout.

The rest of the second week is a mix of glassy small days (like Saturday the 12th morning, 4 ft, 7-second period, glassy) and days ruined by onshore wind. The swell stays small, mostly under 4 ft, and the period ranges from 9 to 12 seconds. The energy is consistently weak to moderate (83 to 380). There are a few clean windows – like Sunday the 13th afternoon with a light offshore and 3 ft, or Monday the 14th afternoon with a glassy 1 ft but a very long 15-second period (energy 131). These are tiny, clean, and only for the most patient soul.

From Sunday the 20th through to Monday the 21st, it’s a slow fade. Small, clean, but unexciting.

Bottom line: If you want the best waves in the 16-day window, you’re looking at Monday the 7th and Tuesday the 8th. After that, it’s a long run of ordinary conditions. The second week is mostly a waiting game, with a few brief clean spells but no real power. Don’t expect much.

Stay stoked, 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.
