The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what Pointe du Toulinguet is serving up over the next couple of weeks. I gotta be straight with you – it’s a bit of a slow burner. There’s a big gap of junk surf before we get anything worth paddling out for.
We start off with a real dud. From Saturday the 15th right through until the end of the following week, it’s mostly poor. The swell is small and weak, wind is blowing onshore or cross-shore, and the wave energy is low, barely hitting triple digits most days. That first weekend and the week that follows are a write-off for a decent wave. You’ll be fighting chop and dribble.
Now, there’s a little flicker of life on Friday the 21st. The wind swings around to a light cross-offshore from the NNE at just 3 mph, cleaning things right up. Swell bumps up a touch to 4 ft from the NW with a moderate energy of 207. It’s got clean conditions, but the size and power are still pretty average. It’s a chance to get wet, but it’s not the standout.
The real payoff, the one we’ve been waiting for, lands on Saturday the 29th of August. This is the best on offer. We’ve got a clean, glassy morning thanks to a light cross-offshore breeze from the NE at 6 mph. The swell jumps to a solid 8 ft from the SSW. Now, that’s a heavy number – over 8 ft is strictly for the experts, lads. The energy is pumping hard (842), and the conditions are clean. This is your session if you’ve got the nerve.
Sunday the 30th keeps the quality high for the experienced crew. Another clean morning with a light cross-offshore breeze, but the swell is a bit smaller at 10 ft from the SW, with very strong energy (1441). It’s excellent for those who know what they’re doing.
The frustrating part is the wind. Most days the onshore or cross-shore breeze trashes the surface. For the standout Saturday morning, however, it all comes together: a big, powerful, clean swell. Just remember, this is a point break exposed to the west, so that SSW direction should line up nicely.
So, don’t bother for the first week and a half. Save your energy. The real window is that final weekend of August. Mark it on the calendar.
Rusty.
