Table - best surf conditions forecast for Lesconil over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s cooking for Lesconil over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you: this is a tough stretch. The first week and a half is looking pretty flat and grim. We’re talking about a real dry spell from now all the way through to the 26th of July. The swell is tiny, mostly under 2 ft, and the wind is all over the place, but mostly cross or onshore. There’s just no energy to work with, and the combined energy values are down in the teens and twenties – that’s barely a ripple. You’d be better off taking the time to wax your board or check your gear.
There is a little flicker of hope on the 21st of July. Tuesday morning sees glassy conditions with a 2 ft swell from the WNW, but the combined energy is still only 53 – weak. It would be a mellow go-out for a beginner, but nothing to get excited about. The real standout, if you can call it that, is much later. On Monday the 27th of July, we finally see a pulse. The morning brings a 5 ft swell from the WNW, with a cross-offshore wind that should keep it decent. The combined energy jumps to 249 – that’s moderate energy, and it’s the most we’ll see in the whole forecast. The period is short though, only 7 seconds, so it’ll be a bit crumbly and won’t have that long, lined-up feel. It’s a marginal call, but it’s the only real window for a wave.
The water temperature is sitting at 67°, which is a solid 4° warmer than usual for this time of year. That’s a nice surprise if you’re paddling out in a spring suit in July.
For a spot like Lesconil that’s a beach and reef mix, usually very consistent, this is a weirdly quiet run. But when the swell does show up on the 27th, remember it’s exposed to the WSW, and the best direction for this spot is from the WSW. That’s a good match. The wind is light and cross-offshore, so it should be clean. Just don’t expect a classic groundswell – the short period tells you it’s local windswell. It’s not a day for experts, but it’s the only time the place will have any life.
Stay tuned, forecasts can change, but for now, it’s a waiting game.

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.
