The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s happening at Locquirec over the next couple weeks.
First good surf comes Sunday the 13th in the morning. Clean 5ft swell from the WNW, 11-second period, nice groundswell energy (452). Light offshore breeze out of the WSW—smooth as glass. Good for beginners, and it’s a fairly consistent break. Water’s 64°, a touch warmer than usual for this time of year.
Monday the 14th morning is smaller—3ft from the WNW, clean with light offshore, but nothing special.
Wednesday the 16th afternoon picks up with 7ft, clean cross-off wind, moderate energy (804). Thursday morning offers 5ft with offshore wind, but it’s marginal.
The first real standout is Friday the 18th morning: 6ft of WNW swell, 10-second period, gentle cross-off breeze, clean. Moderate energy (763), and it’s lookin’ real good.
Second week brings bigger stuff. Monday the 21st hits 8ft from NW with a long 13-second period (2140)—strong energy, expert only. Morning has offshore wind, so it’s clean for the brave. Best of the whole run is Tuesday the 22nd morning: 6ft WNW, 12-second period, light cross-off, glassy. Solid energy (1056). Crowds possible, so beat the rush.
After that, it’s small and messy until Sunday the 27th, when a long-period 16-second NW groundswell rolls in at 4ft, but it’s howling with fresh wind, so it’s marginal. Afternoon bumps to 7ft with 15-second period (2273), but still windy and tricky.
Overall, aim for Friday the 18th morning for a clean fun day, and Tuesday the 22nd morning for the real standout—clean, strong, and glassy. The rest is either too small, too windblown, or too big.
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.
