The Lowdown
Hey, Rusty here. Let’s talk about Pointe du Toulinguet for the next 16 days.
Honestly, it’s a rough stretch. There’s a big gap at the start with no surf worth mentioning, and it takes a while before anything half-decent shows up. Most days are plagued by messy winds that trash the waves.
From Tuesday 25th August: tiny 2ft WNW swell (11-second period), light cross-onshore wind – junk. Wednesday 26th afternoon goes glassy but the swell is just 2ft (8-second period) – barely a bump. Thursday 27th brings 5ft SW swell (7-8 second period) but cross-onshore winds chop it to bits. Friday 28th sees 5-8ft W swell (8-9 second period) with strong onshore winds – the 8ft arvo session is a washing machine for experts, better suited to kite-surfing. Saturday 29th and Sunday 30th: 4-6ft swell, cross-onshore, lumpy. Monday 31st: 7-7ft WNW swell, still onshore and messy.
A slight glimmer on Wednesday 2nd September morning: 8ft W swell (10-second period, energy moderate-strong 1147) with light cross-onshore – it’s rough but the best of a bad bunch so far. Then Thursday 3rd fades. Saturday 5th September: 8-8ft W swell (9-second period) but onshore 25 km/h winds ruin it.
The one true standout is Tuesday 8th September morning. A 6ft WNW groundswell (9-second period, energy 517) meets a light SSE offshore breeze at just 5 km/h – glassy, clean, perfect for this point break. The swell direction matches the break’s ideal W. Water’s around 65°F, typical for late summer. This is your window. After that, Wednesday 9th brings a 7ft W swell (11-second period, energy 1144) but onshore 12 mph winds spoil it, and a 10ft monster in the arvo (energy 2302) is for experts only, blown out.
Keep your hopes pinned on that Tuesday morning session. Everything else is a skip. Rusty out.

Information about the Pointe du Toulinguet Surf forecast
