Right, gather 'round, let's have a look at what's ahead for the next couple of weeks here at Locquirec.
Honestly, the next week or so is a bit of a bummer. Usually, this place can turn it on, especially with that west swell exposure, but right now we're in a proper flat spell. From Friday the 10th all the way through to Wednesday the 22nd of July, it's going to be a wasteland. For over a week, you'll be looking at tiny waves—if any—with the swell barely cracking 1.0 ft to 2 ft. The wind is mostly onshore, right out of the NE and ENE, blowing the guts out of what little is there. The water sits at 65°, which feels a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but honestly, that doesn't help the surf.
We finally get a pulse around Thursday the 23rd and Friday the 24th. Now, this isn't world-class, but after the drought, it's a welcome sight. On the 23rd, we get a 4 ft swell from the WNW with a 9-second period, and the wind goes cross-off from the S, cleaning things up nicely. The combined swell energy is moderate—in the high 200s—so there's some push there. The 24th is a bit of a toss-up: the morning looks good with a 4 ft WNW swell, light cross-off WSW winds at 9 mph and clean conditions. The afternoon gets a bit sloppier.
The standout is Friday morning the 24th of July. That 4 ft of WNW swell (around 237 combined energy) with light, clean cross-offshore wind from the WSW will give you peaky, rideable lines. For a beginner spot like this, that's as good as it gets in this window. It won't be epic, but if you need to get wet, that's the call.
Signing off, Rusty.

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.
