The Lowdown
Pointe du Toulinget starts off messy, but stay patient—there’s a clean window coming your way late in the weekend and into early next week. The water’s around 64°, which is normal for the season. The first couple of days are junk—cross-onshore winds and lumpy chop. Not worth getting wet for.
Wednesday morning (16th) has 2.4m of WNW swell at 10 seconds, but the wind is cross-on and it’s lumpy. Thursday (17th) is similar, slightly smaller but onshore. Friday (18th) is 2.5m at 13 seconds, but straight onshore—messy and hard work. Saturday (19th) stays bumpy.
Then Sunday morning (20th) turns it on—glassy, 1.7m of WNW groundswell, clean lines. That’s your first real window. Monday (21st) is clean and small, around 1.4m, with light offshore flow. Tuesday (22nd) morning is also clean and small.
But the standout is Wednesday morning (23rd): 2.1m of WNW at 14 seconds with a moderate offshore wind. Clean, powerful, and well-ordered. The energy is solid (1748), and this is the best all-round session of the run. If you can get out, that’s the one.
After that it backs off, but Friday (25th) morning has a tiny 0.8m with an 18-second period—long, glidy, and clean. Not big, but the longer period keeps it interesting. Saturday (26th) is back to 1.6m at 14 seconds with offshore winds. Good, solid, clean.
The next week, Sunday (27th) and Monday (28th) are small and weak. Then Tuesday (29th) has a short-period 1.8m at 8 seconds, but the offshore wind is fresh, so it’ll be peaky and clean.
And then—Wednesday (30th) morning. 5.5m at 12 seconds. That’s a huge west swell, with a combined energy of 8402. This is a serious, expert-only pulse. The period is moderate, but the size will close out most breaks. If you’re not an advanced surfer, stay well clear. Thursday (1st) is still big (2.4m at 8 seconds) but more manageable with cross-offshore winds.
There’s a rough gap from the 16th to the 19th where it’s either small or poor quality—don’t force it. Sunday (20th) and Wednesday (23rd) morning are your cleanest, most consistent picks. The second week is smaller and more inconsistent overall, but that Wednesday (30th) pulse is the one that’ll make the ocean roar.
Keep your board dry until then, and pick your moments.
