Table - best surf conditions forecast for Locquirec over the next 16 days.
Alright, I’ll lay it out for Locquirec – it’s a rough patch. We’re looking at a big dry spell with hardly a wave worth chasing.
Right now and through most of the first week, the swell is tiny – 0.3ft to 1ft – with the combined wave energy weak, mostly in the single or low double digits (2 to 83). The wind is onshore or cross-onshore, keeping it bumpy and poor. The only bright spot is Wednesday the 15th and Thursday the 16th, where we get clean cross-offshore winds, but with only 1ft of swell and weak energy (17 to 33), it’s just a flat, clean lake. No surf.
We get a pulse around Tuesday the 21st of July. The morning brings a 4ft swell from the NNW with a short 6-second period, and moderate combined energy of 132. The wind is a clean cross-offshore from the west at 19 mph. It’s the most push we see, but that short-period NNW won’t have the best shape, and for a beginner spot like Locquirec, 4ft is getting big for learners. Wednesday the 22nd afternoon shows a 4ft NW swell at 10 seconds, with a solid 240 combined energy and clean cross-offshore winds – that’s the real standout of the whole period in terms of power. That one’s for the more experienced.
Before that, from the 17th to the 20th, it’s back to tiny 0.7ft to 2ft waves. The 20th has clean conditions but again, no height.
If I’m calling it, the best chance is the afternoon of Wednesday the 22nd of July. That 4ft NW swell (10 seconds) with clean cross-offshore wind and 240 combined energy is the only time we get real power and clean lines. The Tuesday 21st morning (4ft, NNW) is the other option.
For the long-range part around the 25th and 26th, swell drops back to 0.7ft to 1ft with weak energy again. It’s a pretty bleak outlook. The ocean just isn’t giving us anything for paddle surfing around here.

Information about the Locquirec Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Locquirec provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Locquirec can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Locquirec 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.

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 Locquirec 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.
