The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – this stretch is a tough one. We’re looking at Pointe du Toulinguet, a point break that’s fairly consistent and exposed to the west, but it’s just not playing ball for the next two weeks.
The problem is that the wind is almost always coming from the wrong direction. For most of the first week, we’re stuck with a cross-offshore breeze that’s just too strong, or a cross-onshore wind that chops everything up. The wave heights are tiny, barely a ripple, with combined swell energy mostly in the low double digits (20 to 64). The one bit of “good” news is the water temp is sitting at 64°, which is about average for the time of year, but you won’t feel it sitting on your board doing nothing.
We start Monday, July 20th, with a 0.7ft to 1ft WNW swell at 12 seconds, but it's crossed up by a strong breeze. That’s a no-go. That pattern holds through the whole week – tiny, weak, and messy. Wednesday morning the 22nd sees a 1ft swell with a slight air, glassy, but it’s just too small.
We get a bit of a pulse on Sunday, July 26th, with a 6ft to 6ft WNW swell showing up. The combined energy jumps to 314 and 393, which is moderate. But here’s the kicker: the wind is a fresh cross-onshore at 19 mph, making it lumpy and poor. That’s a kite-surfing day, not a paddling day.
The only flicker of hope comes around Tuesday, July 28th, morning. The swell drops to 5ft from the WNW, but the period is a solid 10 seconds, and the wind is a light NNW at 3 mph, making it a light cross-onshore. The combined energy is still high at 386, but the forecast calls it “marginal.” It’s the best of a bad bunch, but it's still not good. The swell is over 5ft, so it’s a bit much for beginners, and the cross-onshore wind will still make it a battle.
We then drift into the second week with more of the same: 3ft to 5ft swell, but the cross-onshore wind never lets up. The morning of Friday, July 31st, sees a 5ft WNW swell with a 9-second period and a light cross-shore breeze, but it's still only rated as marginal. The combined energy is 368, but the quality is just not there.
Honestly, there’s no standout session here. The wind is the enemy, and the swell is either too small or too messy. Save your energy and wait for the next system.
Rusty.
