The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get into it. The next couple of weeks at Pointe du Toulinguet are a real mixed bag, and honestly, for a while there it’s looking pretty grim. We’ve got a rough patch right through the middle of next week, with the ocean all churned up and lumpy, and no real quality to get excited about.
The size is there at times – we see that first pulse pushing overhead on Friday the 18th, with the swell energy cranking at 3407 – but the wind is just ruining it. Onshore, cross-onshore, it doesn’t matter, it’s messy. The swell's got some decent period in it, around 14 seconds, but it’s just not lining up for us. Even as it drops back for the weekend, the onshores are still all over it.
Then there’s a bit of a lull – small waves, weak energy, nothing doing. From the 22nd onwards it’s dribbling, and while the wind swings offshore here and there, the swell just fades away. It’s one of those stretches where you’d be better off staying at home.
But hold on, because right at the end of the window, things truly come alive. The standout is going to be that Saturday morning, the 26th. We’ve got a proper push of swell, a solid 8ft, out of the west with a long 16-second period. And the wind is light and offshore out of the east. This is where Pointe du Toulinguet shines – it’s got that exposed point setup that loves a clean westerly groundswell. The energy is peaking at 3618, which is just firing. The water temp is sitting at 64°, which is pretty much spot on for late September, so no dramas there. It’s going to be a proper session for the experienced crew; the kind of day you’d be a fool to miss.
There’s also that little window on the 23rd, with a cleaner 6ft and an offshore wind, but the period isn't as long, so the 26th is the one to circle on the calendar. The week after that, the surf is pretty much gone, so if you get the chance, make that Saturday count. That’s your best shot for a while.
