Pointe du Toulinguet Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, this is Rusty, and I’m lookin’ straight at the surf ahead for the Pointe du Toulinguet region. We’ve got a bit of a mixed bag, but a couple of windows are gonna light up, so let’s get into it.

The coming days start off a little weak. Sunday morning the 6th sees some small 4ft swell from the WNW, but the wind is a slight cross-off, so it’s clean. The water’s sitting at 63°, which is pretty much normal for this time of year—nothing wild there. The energy is only in the low 230 range, so don’t expect much push. Sunday afternoon drops off quick and gets choppy, so that morning window is the only real look that day.

Monday the 7th brings a bigger pulse—7ft from the W with a 13-second period, and the energy jumps way up to 1380—that’s a solid groundswell. But the wind is onshore or cross-on all day, so it’s gonna be messy. This is a point break, so that long period could line up nicely, but the wind is gonna ruin it for paddle surfing. If you’ve got a kite, this setup might be more your thing.

Tuesday the 8th is where it gets interesting. Morning glass-off with a cross-off breeze from the ENE at 10 km/h, and a clean 5ft swell from the WNW. Energy is still solid at 569. That’s the standout for this first week. The waves will have shape, the wind is clean, and it’s a point break handling that swell direction well. Definitely the best on offer early on. Tuesday afternoon though, the wind swings strong NW and it’s all over.

Wednesday the 9th through the rest of the week is mostly a write-off—onshore winds, choppy, poor quality. There’s a few small windows, like Thursday morning the 10th with a light wind, but the swell is tiny and weak. Not worth paddling out.

The next real highlight comes on Wednesday the 16th of September. That morning, we’ve got clean conditions again—light NE cross-off wind, 6ft from the WNW, and strong energy at 740. That’s a punchy, clean swell for a point break. This is your second standout, but it’s over a week away, so keep an eye on the forecast—it’s promising but not locked in.

Thursday the 17th morning is also clean with a smaller 4ft, but the real juice is the 16th. After that, Friday the 18th morning goes glassy with a tiny 3ft—glassy but small, so maybe a longboard session if you’re desperate.

Overall, Tuesday the 8th morning is the clear winner for the near term. Wednesday the 16th morning is the one to watch for the second week. Don’t bother with the afternoons, they’re mostly trashed.
