The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what Pointe du Toulinguet has in store for us over the next couple of weeks.
Right now, and for quite a while, it’s a bit of a rough story. We’ve got a solid pulse of Westerly swell rolling in, with the combined energy sitting at a moderate 279, but it’s coming in at a short, weak 7 second period. The problem is the wind – a fresh 19 mph blow from the West-Northwest is just smashing it up. It’s onshore and messy, making for poor conditions. This pattern of messy, cross-onshore wind and mediocre swell holds through the rest of July and into the first week of August. We see waves around 5ft to 6ft during these first few days (Sunday 26th to Monday 27th), but it’s just not clean. The energy does bounce up above 500 on the Monday, which is a strong pulse, but the period is still short and the wind is just ruining it.
We hit a bit of a low point from the 29th of July through most of the first week of August. The swell drops off significantly, often below 3ft, with energy readings getting down into the 40s and 70s – that’s really weak. Most sessions are a write-off with onshore or cross-onshore winds. There is a brief moment on the morning of Tuesday the 28th of July where we get an offshore wind from the East at only 6 mph, with a clean 3ft wave. It’s surfable but very ordinary, nothing to get excited about.
Then we get a few glassy moments, like the morning of Friday the 31st of July and again on Sunday the 2nd of August, but the swell is tiny, down around 2ft to 3ft. Not worth paddling out for.
But here’s the real standout. After a long, flat spell, things start to look promising on Sunday the 9th of August. The morning session is the one I'd be circling on the calendar. We’ve got an offshore breeze from the East at a light 3 mph, which will make for clean conditions. The swell is a consistent 3ft from the West, but the period jumps to a very long 11 seconds. That’s proper groundswell energy, it’ll have some shape and push. The combined energy is a solid 239. It’s going to be small, but that clean, lined-up W’ly swell on a point break with offshore wind will be the best waves on offer by a long shot. Expect some beautiful, peeling lines.
Following that, Monday the 10th of August keeps a clean 3ft wave with a light cross-offshore wind, but the period drops back a bit, making it less special than the Sunday.
So, to wrap it up: we have a long, frustrating stretch of messy, blown-out conditions to get through. The only true beacon of hope is that morning of Sunday the 9th of August. If you can be patient, that session looks like it will be worth the wait.
Keep the faith,
Rusty
