The Lowdown
Alright crew, Rusty here. Let's break down the next couple of weeks for the local zone.
The window opens with a bit of a slow burner, but we've got a clear winner in the first few days. The first real surf to get stoked about is on Tuesday morning, September 1st. Locquirec is the spot. We've got a clean 4ft swell from the WNW, with a light offshore breeze from the southwest. Conditions are prime – glassy and clean, with a combined energy of 254, so there's plenty of power. Water temp is about what you'd expect for this time of year. This is the best of the whole run, no two ways about it.
The rest of the first week is a bit of a letdown. Wednesday the 2nd has a smaller, cleaner morning but the swell fades fast. The following days see a bit more height, like Thursday afternoon with 4ft and 153 energy, but the wind is mostly cross-off or cross-shore, keeping it from being perfect. By the weekend, the 5th and 6th, the wind turns onshore and the surf turns into a messy, choppy washout.
We hit a dry spell through the middle of the week until the 9th of September. Wednesday the 9th brings a bump in size – 6ft from the WNW – but the wind is blowing 30 km/h (18 mph) in the morning, making it a bit rough. The energy is up (385), but it's not the clean, groomed glass we saw on the 1st. The 10th is even windier, with strong breezes that'll make it a tough paddle.
The second week flatlines. From the 12th onward, the swell drops to less than 2ft, with poor wind and almost no energy. It's a flat spell that runs through to the 16th. Not much to get excited about.
So, the call is easy: Tuesday morning, September 1st, at Locquirec. That's your window. Get on it.
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.
