The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s shaping up for Pointe du Toulinguet over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a rough start. For the first week and a half, the surf is tiny and the conditions are just not cooperating. From now through to the end of August, there’s barely anything worth paddling out for. Wave heights are stuck below 3ft, with the biggest bump on Wednesday the 26th only reaching about 4ft, but that’s with a short 7-second period and a messy cross-shore wind. The combined swell energy is weak (201) and it just looks ugly. The water temp is sitting at 65°, which is pretty much average for the time of year with only a 0.4° anomaly, so nothing weird there.
Thursday the 27th sees a jump in size – 8ft – but it’s windblown and onshore from the WNW, with a combined energy of 1932 (moderate-strong). It’s not clean, and with that size and poor conditions, it’s more of a kite surfing show than a paddle session. Friday the 28th pushes even bigger, up to 16ft, but with 30-35 km/h onshore winds, it's a washing machine. Combined energy hits 4762 and then 5265 (strong to very strong), but it’s blown out. Only for the kamikaze crew.
Saturday the 29th still has size – 8ft in the morning – but the wind is cross-onshore from the WSW, making it choppy. Combined energy is still high (1375). Not a great day.
We finally get a bit of a chance on Tuesday the 2nd of September. The morning brings clean conditions with light cross-offshore winds from the SE and 6ft of swell from the SW with a 9-second period. Combined energy is 1014 (moderate-strong). This is the standout. The swell is a bit big for beginners (over 5ft) but it’s not too crazy, and with the wind being offshore, the waves should hold nice shape. Pointe du Toulinguet is a point break exposed to W swell, and this SW direction is a decent match. Expect some crowds, as it can get busy here.
After that, it gets big again on Thursday the 3rd with 13ft and powerful 12-second period groundswell (6762 combined energy), but it’s lumpy with cross-onshore winds. The following days drop back in size but are still blown out or cross-shore. The whole second week is mostly windy or lumpy, so nothing else really shines.
So the call for the whole 16-day window: There are two solid gaps with no real options. The first gap runs from now until the 1st of September. The only true standout is Tuesday morning, the 2nd of September. It’s far out, so keep an eye on it, but right now it looks promising.
Rusty.
