The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s run through it.
We start flat. Nothing worth wetting a wetsuit for from Sunday the 23rd through the middle of the week. Tiny waves and poor conditions all around. Don’t waste the gas. The first real pulse hits Thursday the 27th, with 8ft swell from the SW, but the wind is screaming onshore at 28 mph with thunderstorms around. Combined energy is strong (848), but it’s a total mess – strong cross-onshore and messy. Period is only 9 seconds, so it’s lumpy and weak. This is more of a kite-surfing day than a paddle session. Friday gets even bigger, with 12ft from the WSW and straight onshore wind at 25 mph, energy hitting 1830. That’s for experts only, and even they’ll be fighting.
Saturday the 29th stays big – 8ft from the W in the morning, onshore wind again, energy 1639. Afternoon drops to 7ft, still onshore. Raw and powerful, but ugly.
Sunday the 30th morning we finally get some relief. Swell drops to 4ft from the SW with a moderate cross-shore breeze. Energy is moderate (219). It’s surfable, but nothing special. That small, cleaner trend carries into early September. Tuesday the 1st of September morning shows 3ft from the NW with a light cross-onshore breeze – light cross-onshore with small wind ripples. Small and weak, but you could take a longboard out.
The best of a bad bunch is Wednesday the 2nd of September morning. Pointe du Toulinguet has 2ft from the W, period 8 seconds, but the wind is nearly glassy – NNE at 3 mph, cross-offshore and clean. Energy is weak (52), so it’s tiny, but it’ll be the cleanest wave of the whole forecast. Perfect for a quiet, soulful session on a log.
After that, it trails off into tiny, choppy, or onshore junk. Nothing to get stoked about.
Bottom line: a poor run for Pointe du Toulinguet. The big swells are blown out, and the clean moments are too small to really fire. That Wednesday morning is your one chance for a clean little wave.
Rusty.
