The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's take a good look at the next couple of weeks for our little corner of the coast.
We’ve got a bit of a slow start, but don't write it off just yet. The first few days are looking pretty ordinary, with small, weak waves and not much energy behind them. The real action looks like it’s going to start kicking off next week.
So, for the first weekend, Sunday the 6th through Tuesday the 8th, it’s not looking great. Sunday morning we’ve got weak, 3ft swell from the WNW with a short 10-second period, the combined energy is only 151, and the wind is a cross-off, but the conditions are just poor. It stays small and messy. Monday the 7th sees a jump in size to about 5ft with a much longer 14-second period and a combined energy of 801, but the wind is a cross-off and the surf is still considered marginal. Tuesday morning the 8th looks the pick of this early patch with clean 5ft surf from the W and offshore winds, but the afternoon turns into a choppy cross-onshore mess.
There's a bit of a gap in quality here, with nothing really worth getting excited about until we get to the later part of the week. By Thursday the 10th and Friday the 11th, we’re back to small, weak swell in the 3ft to 4.6ft range.
The standout period is definitely the following weekend. Sunday the 13th is our top call. We’ll see a solid 5.2ft groundswell from the WNW with a 10-second period, the combined energy is up at 530, and the wind looks to be offshore in the morning. Expect clean, powerful waves at Locquirec. With the swell coming from the west-southwest, it matches the optimum direction for the spot, and that longer period will mean more energy and shape. The water temp is about 63.5°F, which is normal for this time of year. This is the one to aim for.
After that, Monday the 14th holds small but clean 3.3ft waves with offshore wind, but after that the conditions get a bit more questionable. The second week from the 16th onwards sees a lot of onshore and cross-onshore winds, with sizes bouncing between 3.3ft and 5.6ft, but the quality just isn't there consistently. The best of the rest might be Saturday the 20th, with small but clean 3.3ft surf.
Overall, wait for next Sunday. That’s the session.

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.
