The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer at Pointe du Toulinget.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – the next week and a half is looking pretty grim. Don’t get your hopes up. We’re looking at a lot of blown-out, messy, and flat conditions for the foreseeable future.
Friday the 28th and Saturday the 29th of August are a write-off. Strong winds from the southwest, and that big jump to a 10 ft to 13 ft swell on Saturday brings massive, ugly, stormy conditions that are only for the absolute madmen. The water temp is sitting at 65°, which feels pretty normal for this time of year.
Sunday the 30th stays nasty, with strong cross-onshore winds and a messy 5 ft to 8 ft swell. Monday the 31st offers a glimmer of hope. The morning looks clean with a decent 7 ft W swell, but the data flags it as poor. By Monday afternoon, that 8 ft WNW swell with light onshore wind brushes a “marginal” rating, so maybe a sneaky session if you're desperate.
Tuesday the 1st of September is small and junky. It stays that way through the first few days of September – we’re talking small, choppy, and generally unpleasant surf, barely scraping into the “marginal” category at best. A real downer.
Then, we finally get something to talk about. Looking ahead to Saturday the 5th of September, the morning sees a decent 6 ft WNW swell (combined wave energy reaching 851) and the wind goes glassy. That’s the word. Glassy. Clean. This is the standout window. Pointe du Toulinguet is a point break, so it should handle that WNW swell well. The period is 12 seconds, so it’s a proper groundswell with plenty of push. Expect clean, lined-up waves for the intermediate crew. But don’t sleep on it, because by Saturday afternoon, the onshore wind returns and it’s done.
After that, it’s back into the doldrums. Sunday the 6th is cross-shore and choppy, and from the 7th of September right through to the 12th, it’s either flat on its face or being hammered by onshore gales. A depressing end to the forecast period.
So, to wrap it up: save your energy for the morning of Saturday the 5th of September. That's your only proper window for a clean 6 ft groundswell at a well-shaped point.
Rusty.
