The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break down what Pointe du Toulinguet has in store.
The first few days are a rough go. Saturday the 29th brings a big SW swell, 10 to 12 feet, but with SW winds screaming near 30 mph, it’s completely blown out. Combined wave energy is huge (1044 to 2662), but the wind ruins it. That pattern sticks – Sunday and Monday stay onshore and choppy. Monday morning shows a 8-foot W swell with a moderate breeze, but it’s only marginal. By Tuesday and Wednesday, the swell drops to around 3 feet and the wind stays messy. A solid five days of poor conditions.
Then we hit the sweet spot. Saturday the 5th of September morning is glassy – no wind at all – with a 6-foot WNW groundswell, 11-second period, and combined energy of 718 (moderate). Clean, offshore wind direction (WNW), right in the optimum zone. This is the best session on the whole forecast.
Sunday the 6th is small and weak, but Wednesday the 9th of September morning is another big one. We get a 10-foot WNW swell with a light SE offshore breeze. Combined energy jumps to 2031 (strong). That’s expert-only territory – over 8 feet – but clean and lined up. A solid choice for those with the skills.
After that, it fades. From the 10th through the 13th, it’s fresh onshore winds and small, messy surf. The 12th has near gale winds and storms. Not worth the effort.
Bottom line: Saturday the 5th of September morning is the one – glassy and clean. Wednesday the 9th morning is for the experts. Everything else? Skip it.
Rusty.
