The Lowdown
Howdy, Rusty here again. Lookin’ at Pointe du Toulinget, and I won’t sugarcoat it – there’s hardly a wave worth mentionin’ over the next 16 days. Not a single session gets a good score, and most are zeros. Water temp is about 66°, which is normal for this time of year, anomaly less than a degree and a half, so nothin’ funky.
Right now, on Monday the 11th of August, we got a 2ft swell from the WNW, period a weak 8 seconds, combined energy a paltry 56. The wind is glassy outta the ENE at 3 mph, so the surface is clean, but the swell is just too small to bother. Tuesday the 12th morning brings a 3ft W swell with a 10-second period and a moderate energy of 124. Still, wind is a light cross-shore from the south at 6 mph, and it’s called poor. Not worth it.
Wednesday and Thursday the 13th–14th, the swell tries to hit 4ft from the W, period 11 seconds on Thursday morning, energy climbing to 335. But the wind goes cross-onshore from the northwest at 12 mph, makin’ it choppy. Thursday afternoon is similar with 4ft and 247 energy. Friday the 14th has a 3ft W swell, 9-second period, 164 energy, but still cross-onshore. This repeats right through Saturday, Sunday, and the next week – small swells, dirty wind, zero scores.
There’s a big dead stretch until Friday morning the 21st of August. That morning, a 6ft WNW swell pours in with a period of 7 seconds, energy a strong 419. The wind finally goes offshore from the east at 6 mph, and the report says “expect good surf conditions.” It’s the only day with any life. The swell direction (WNW) jives with the optimum W direction for this exposed point, and the light offshore wind is a big win. At 6ft, it’s maybe too much for newbies. Friday afternoon the 21st, the swell jumps to 7ft with a 9-second period, energy 662, but wind swings onshore from the west at 6 mph, makin’ it a tough call.
Saturday the 22nd gets big – 7ft with onshore wind from the west at 12 mph, scored at zero. Only for experts. Sunday and Monday drop back to small, weak, and lumpy. So, it’s a long, quiet run with only that one morning on Friday the 21st offerin’ clean, overhead surf. For a spot that’s fairly consistent, this is a rare dry patch, but with that one window lookin’ glassy, keep your board ready – forecasts can change.
