The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s happening at Pointe du Toulinguet over the next couple of weeks. It’s a tale of a lot of messy, windy days with a couple of tiny windows of clean surf.
Right off the bat, the first week is a write-off. On Monday, August 31st, we’ve got a solid 10ft west swell rolling in, but that WNW wind at 15 mph is hitting it onshore, turning it into a messy, choppy disaster. The water is 64°, which is about normal for the season. The combined wave energy is a massive 1545, but it’s all for nothing with that wind. The rest of the week into early September is more of the same – cross-onshore winds and sloppy conditions, with swell sizes dropping to 3ft. It’s not worth getting wet.
Here’s the one real highlight. Saturday, September 5th, the morning is looking good. We’ve got a clean 8ft west-northwest swell with a long 13-second period. That’s proper groundswell, with a strong 1841 in the energy department, and the wind is a light cross-shore from the NNW at 9 mph. This is the best on offer across the whole 16-day forecast. For a point break like Pointe du Toulinguet, that long period will really hold the waves together, giving you some powerful, lined-up rides. The afternoon turns onshore and choppy, so it’s a short window, but Saturday morning is the one to set your alarm for.
After that, it’s mostly quiet. Sunday the 6th of September morning is clean with a light cross-offshore breeze, but the swell is only 4ft and the energy is weak at 287. It’s surfable, but just okay. The following week is a bit of a drought. We get clean conditions on the 7th, 12th, and 13th, but the swell is tiny, barely 2ft to 4ft, and the energy is weak. The 14th of September Monday morning has a 4ft swell with a whopping 18-second period, but the energy is still only moderate at 1130. It’s clean, but that kind of period will be super straight and fat at a point, better for a longboard than a shortboard.
Then the end of the window, around the 15th of September, shows a pulse of 8ft swell, but it’s completely blown out by onshore winds again. The long and short of it is: the wind is our enemy for most of this forecast. The only real standout is the early morning on Saturday, September 5th. That’s your window.
Rusty.
