The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what we’ve got on the books for Pointe du Toulinget.
Well, I’m not gonna lie to you, this 16-day stretch is a bit of a heartbreaker. The first couple of weeks are filled with wind that’s all over the shop and a whole lot of chop. We don’t see a single decent recommendation until we get to Thursday the 4th of September, but even that’s a marginal call. It’s a long, dry spell.
The water temp is sitting at 65° on that first Sunday morning, which is bang on average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The first real glimmer of hope comes on Thursday morning, the 3rd of September. The swell’s a tiny 3 ft from the NW, but the wind goes glassy – 0 mi/h. That’s the kind of clean you can’t buy. The energy reading is 154, so it’s weak, but that glassy surface will make it look a million times better than the size suggests. You’ll be on a longboard, but you’ll be smiling. Thursday afternoon sees a bump up to 4 ft from the NW, with a bit of a light cross-onshore, so it gets a bit bumpier.
If you can wait, Saturday the 6th of September afternoon could be the most powerful we see, with a 7 ft swell from the W (moderate energy 600) but the wind is a fresh cross-shore with a lumpy cross-chop. It’s not clean, but the size is there.
Honestly, the standout in this whole quiet outlook is that Thursday morning glass-off. The surf is tiny, but the conditions will be as perfect as it gets. Patience will be key.
Remember, if the swell gets over 8 ft – like that 10 ft we see on the 28th of August – that’s expert-only territory, especially with the onshore wind. Some of those bigger days with strong wind could be more fun for the kite surfers than us paddle guys.
Stay hopeful, the patterns can shift.
