The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s on the table for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, I gotta be straight with you – this is a tough stretch. The entire 16-day window is looking like a write-off for any decent surf. The first real chance of getting wet comes around Tuesday, the 4th of August, with a small, weak swell, but the wind is already a problem. We’ve got a moderate cross-onshore breeze from the southwest, chopping up a 4ft swell from the WSW. The water’s sitting at 66°, pretty normal for this time of year, but that’s about the only thing that’s average. The energy is weak (178), and the whole thing feels like a chore.
That pattern just keeps going. Wednesday the 5th sees a little more size – 5ft from the west – but the wind is still a cross-on from the WNW, and the period is short at 7 seconds. The energy bumps up a bit (254), but it’s still messy. We get a day of glassy conditions on Friday the 7th, but the swell absolutely drops out to a tiny 2ft from the NW, with almost no energy (33). It’s clean, but you’d be fighting for a ripple.
We see a small spike in energy on Saturday the 8th with a 3ft NW swell and a very long period of 11 seconds (146), which is a groundswell, but the wind is a moderate cross-shore. That’s about as good as it gets, and that’s not saying much. The conditions are “poor surf conditions” across the board, every single day. The best windows are those light offshores or glassy mornings, but the swell is just too small to do anything with them.
For a spot like Pointe du Toulinguet, this is a real bummer. It’s a fairly consistent point break, intermediate-friendly, and it’s exposed to the west, so it gets plenty of swell. But in this 16-day window, there’s just nothing worth paddling out for. The wind is nearly always wrong, and when the wind is right, there’s no swell. It’s a blank run.
So, my advice? Don’t bother checking the charts for a while. These stretches happen. It tends not to stay poor for long, but right now, the ocean is on a holiday.
