The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, the outlook for Pointe du Toulinguet is pretty grim for a long stretch. The first week or so is a write-off. There’s a real gap here where you won’t want to paddle out. It’s not until Thursday, the 20th of August that we finally see something worth talking about, so you’ve got a solid 10 or 11 days of waiting from the start.
The main issue for most of this period is just messy, blown-out conditions and weak, short-period swell. We’ve got a fair bit of cross-onshore wind and not much push. The combined wave energy is low, usually under 100 and only creeping into the moderate range but still producing poor surf. Even the glassy Wednesday morning on the 12th with 3ft swell from the west at 10 seconds only had moderate energy and was still rated poor – it’s just not offering any quality.
The one true standout, the only one that gets me a little excited, is the Thursday morning of the 20th of August. Pointe du Toulinguet is a point break, and that morning it’s looking clean with a light cross-offshore breeze from the NNE. We’ve got a 4ft swell from the WNW at an 8-second period, but the combined energy jumps up to 342 (moderate-strong). The finder flags it as “expect good surf conditions.” That’s your window. It’s not a huge day, but the light wind and the point setup should offer some nice, clean lines. If you can sneak out for that morning session, do it. After that, the winds get messy again for the afternoon and into Friday.
So, if you’re keen, the play is simple: wait for that Thursday morning, the 20th. Everything before that is a no-go. It’s a long wait, but that’s how it goes sometimes.
Stay frothy, Rusty.
