The Lowdown
Alright, grab a coffee and listen up, it’s Rusty here, and I’ve got to be straight with you – the next 16 days are looking pretty grim for a proper paddle.
The only break with any real potential is Pointe du Toulinguet, a point break that’s fairly consistent and exposed to the west. It’s a spot for intermediates. But the problem is, the wind and swell just aren’t playing ball. Most of the time, we’re looking at bumpy, cross-shore or onshore slop. There’s a bit of a window starting Sunday morning, August 23rd, where we get some clean lines. A tiny 1ft lump from the west, but the secret weapon is an offshore breeze from the ENE. That’ll clean it right up, though the swell is weak with combined energy of 60. The period is a long 11 seconds, and while that usually means better-shaped waves, it's such a small height it’ll be a long wait between set waves. Crowds are sometimes a factor here, but on a 1ft day? Might just be you and the gulls.
The biggest swell hits on the 20th of August, a 6ft to 7ft pulse from the WNW, with strong energy readings of 556 and 1458. That sounds promising, but the wind is a solid onshore at 19 mph. That’s a messy, blown-out mess, probably better suited to a kite surfer than a surfer with a shortboard. The 21st isn't much better with a 7ft swell but a cross-onshore wind at 16 mph.
Later on, things get interesting for a clean-up crew. There’s a nice offshore on Sunday morning, August 30th, with a 3ft swell from the WNW and a 9-second period, and clean offshore winds from the east. The energy is moderate (142), and it might be the neatest wave we see in the whole run. But it's a long way off, so that’s a promising but uncertain call.
The water temp is sitting at 66°F, which is about average for the time of year at Toulinguet.
Honestly, for most of the next two weeks, the ocean is going to be a lumpy, choppy, blown-out mess. If you’ve got a kite, bring it. For a surfboard, you’ll be chasing scraps. The forecast can always change, but as it stands, don’t hold your breath.
Rusty.
