Table - best surf conditions forecast for Lesconil over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what’s on the menu for our local stretch.
First thing you need to know: the water is sitting at a slightly warmer than usual 65°F, which is a touch above average for this time of year. Not a game-changer, but it’ll feel a bit more comfortable than normal.
Right now, we’re in a bit of a flat spell. The first few days are looking pretty grim with tiny, weak swell and poor conditions. We’ve got a few days of small, choppy, and generally unsurfable surf from Thursday the 9th through to the end of the weekend. You’re not missing much.
Things start to get a little interesting on Saturday the 11th afternoon. We see a tiny 2ft swell from the WNW with a period of 10 seconds, but the wind goes offshore. It’s not going to be anything to write home about, but it’ll be clean. The energy is pretty weak at 75, so it’s a small, gutless wave for a longboard.
The real standout, the one you want to circle on your calendar, is Wednesday the 22nd of July. We get a solid pulse of swell. The morning kicks off with a 6ft swell from the west, with a period of 7 seconds. The energy jumps right up to 267 (moderate), which is a big step up from the previous days. The wind is offshore from the NW with a gentle breeze, which will keep the surface clean. This is the best-looking surf in the whole 16-day window. It’s got some push to it, but at 6ft it’s still manageable for a confident intermediate. The afternoon on the 22nd is a bit of a letdown though, as the wind picks up to a fresh breeze, making it less appealing.
Following that, Thursday the 23rd and Friday the 24th hold in with decent, clean, offshore waves in the 4ft to 5ft range, with moderate wave energy (259 and 277). These are solid, rideable days with good conditions, but the 22nd is the clear winner.
So, the overall pattern is a slow start, a long gap of nothing, then a solid run of clean, offshore surf from the 22nd through the 24th. The best of the best is Wednesday the 22nd morning.
Rusty, signing off.

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.
