The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s happening at Pointe du Toulinguet.
It’s a pretty quiet stretch coming up at this exposed point break, to be honest. The next week and a half doesn’t give us much to get excited about. Most of the time, the wind is messy and the swell is small and weak. There’s a solid gap of poor conditions right through, with only a couple of moments that might be worth a look.
The first real standout that catches my eye is on the morning of Thursday, August 13th. That morning we get a clean 3.6ft swell from the west, with light offshore winds from the northeast. The swell period is a solid 10 seconds, which is decent for a point, and wave energy is moderate (231). The break is rated for intermediates and it’s fairly consistent – a good sign. Water temp is 65.3°, which is about average for this time of year, so nothing wild there. Just clean little rollers wrapping into the point. That’s the best on offer.
Before that, on Wednesday, August 12th morning, there’s a brief window of glassy conditions with a small 3ft west swell. Riding a period around 10 seconds (154 energy), it’ll be surfable but nothing special. A chance to get wet if you’re desperate, but the real pick is the Thursday morning.
After that, the rest of the window falls apart again – onshore winds, short periods, and choppy seas. Even by Sunday, August 16th, when the swell pushes up to 4.6ft from the west, the wind is cross-onshore and messy. For a point break setup, that’s not going to clean up well.
The final week is a write-off. There’s a morning of glassy calm on Wednesday, August 19th, but the swell is a tiny 1.3ft. Not worth the trip. And by Friday, August 21st, winds are onshore again.
So, to sum it up: keep your eyes on Thursday the 13th. That’s the one morning where the stars kind of align. Everything else is a bit of a flat or bumpy mess.
