The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty comin' at ya from the Brittany coast. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for Pointe du Toulinguet.
First off, I gotta be straight with you – it's a slow start. The next week and a half are looking pretty grim for a decent paddle. We've got small, weak swell and a lot of cross or onshore winds messing things up. The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing unusual there. From now through the 17th of August, the conditions are just poor, with combined swell energy barely breaking into triple digits, mostly sitting around 105 to 289. The waves are small, the winds are choppy, and it's not worth getting wet. That's a solid eight days of nothing.
Now, here's where it gets interesting. The first real glimmer of hope comes on the morning of Tuesday, the 18th of August. The swell picks up to 5ft from the WNW, and while the period is a short 7 seconds, the combined energy jumps to 441 – that's moderate energy. The wind will be a light offshore from the NE, and the report says "expect good surf conditions". This is the standout of the whole forecast period. It'll be a bit of a washing machine with that short period, but a clean, offshore morning with waist-to-chest high waves at this exposed point is worth the wait. If you can get out there that morning, do it. The afternoon gets chopped up by a fresh N wind, so it's a morning mission only.
The next morning, Wednesday the 19th of August, also has a clean window with a light NNE offshore and 4ft swell from the WNW. The energy is at 203, which is moderate, and the report is "expect good surf conditions" again. It's a good follow-up, but the Tuesday morning is the real highlight with that bigger, cleaner swell.
After that, we're back to the doldrums. The winds pick up again, the swell drops, and conditions turn poor through the rest of the month. There's a fleeting moment on the 21st of August with a clean offshore wind, but the waves are only 2ft to 3ft and described as "very ordinary". It's not worth getting excited about.
So, to wrap it up: don't bother for the next week. Mark your calendar for the morning of Tuesday, the 18th of August. That's your best bet by a long shot.
Rusty.
