The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here with a look at what’s on the cards for the next couple of weeks at Locquirec.
The honest truth is, it’s a bit of a flat spell to kick things off. We’re looking at a lot of days with nothing really worth paddling out for, with a gap from now until around the 25th of July where it’s all tiny, short-period slop and mostly onshore or cross-onshore winds. You’ll see some energy pick up around the 26th to 27th, but the winds are messy, so it’s a miss.
The first real standout comes in on Saturday the 1st of August. This is where things get interesting. We’ve got a clean, cross-offshore breeze from the W and WNW, with swell heights around 4.6 ft coming from the WNW with a period of 10 seconds. The wave energy is moderate, around the 356 mark. It’s a bit of a marginal call on the tide, but the conditions are described as clean. For a beginner-friendly spot, expect some proper little runners.
Then, the best of the whole outlook lands on Monday the 3rd of August. We’ve got a morning session with a solid offshore from the SSW, blowing at 15.5 mph, and a 4.6 ft swell from the WNW with a 9-second period. Wave energy is knocking on the door of strong at 268. The report says to expect good surf conditions, and with that offshore wind, Locquirec should be glassy and well-shaped. This is definitely the one to circle on your calendar. The afternoon cleans up too, with a cross-offshore breeze, but the morning looks primo.
After that, the window closes again from the 5th of August onwards with more small, onshore slop.
So, for the beginner crew, stick to the 1st of August for some clean, manageable waves. For everyone else, make the call for Monday the 3rd of August – the offshore winds and a decent bit of energy should make for the best session of the run.
Stay patient, fill the tank for that Monday.

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. If you surf the same spot (Locquirec) 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 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.
