The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty comin' at ya from the coast. Let's get into it.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – the next couple of weeks are lookin' pretty grim for a proper paddle. Pointe du Toulinguet is a classic point break that needs a clean W swell to really fire, and for the first week and a half, we just ain't gettin' it. The wind is howling onshore or cross-onshore, and the swell is a messy, short-period wind chop. It's a whole lot of nothin' for a surfer. From the 24th of August all the way through the 6th of September, the forecast is just a string of "poor surf conditions." There's a pulse of stronger energy on the 31st of August, but it's an 8ft windswell hitting straight onshore – that's a washing machine, not a wave. An absolute write-off for a point break. This stretch is gonna be more interesting for the kite surfers than anyone with a paddleboard.
Then, finally, a flicker of hope. The morning of Monday, the 7th of September, we get a little bump. The wind swings offshore from the SSE, a clean cross-off breeze, and there's a 3.6ft WNW groundswell with a 10-second period. The combined energy is a moderate 336. It's still small, and the forecast calls it marginal, but that clean wind is a huge positive. The water temp is a nice 64.8°F for the first record, which is about normal for the time of year.
But the real standout, the one that's got my heart racing a little, is waiting for us on Tuesday morning, the 8th of September. This is a long-range call, so don't book the time off just yet, but if it comes together... wow. We're looking at a massive 14.8ft W groundswell with a very long period of 18 seconds. The combined energy is a staggering 11395. That's a serious, powerful swell. The catch? The wind is a fresh SSE cross-off, which is clean. But with a period that long, a point break like Toulinguet is the perfect place to be. It'll be fast, powerful, and lined up. This is expert territory, no doubt about it – 14.8ft is serious juice. The afternoon looks a little mushier with an 11.5ft swell and a cross-on wind, so the morning session is the one to aim for. Get on it.
