Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, mate, it’s a bit of a bleak outlook for Pointe du Toulinget. We’ve got a long stretch of poor surf conditions ahead. The first recommendation doesn’t come until the morning of Friday, July 10th, and even then, it’s nothing to write home about.
The overall pattern is a long, drawn-out period of small, weak swell and choppy, wind-affected conditions. The water temp is sitting at 66°F and that’s a solid 4°F warmer than usual for this time of year, so you’ll be comfortable in a shorty or even a spring suit if you’re brave.
Let’s run through it. Thursday the 9th is a write-off. Small 3ft swell from the WNW with a 10-second period, but the wind is a messy cross-off and the energy is weak (137). The report says “poor surf conditions” – no point paddling out.
Friday morning the 10th is our first real chance. It’s still small, with a 3ft swell from the WNW, but the wind is a clean offshore from the East at 10 km/h. The conditions are described as “surfable waves but very ordinary”, and the combined energy is still moderate at 162. It’s the best of a bad bunch, but it’s not a standout. The swell period is short at 9 seconds, so don’t expect much push.
From Friday afternoon right through to the morning of Monday, July 20th, it’s a desert. The swell drops off, the wind is either cross-off, onshore, or glassy but with virtually no swell. There are many days where the score is zero and the wave comment is “poor surf conditions”. The morning of the 19th of July is glassy with a 2ft swell from the west, but the energy is only moderate (101) and the period is short (8 seconds). It’s clean, but gutless. Not worth the paddle.
The next real event isn’t until the morning of Monday, July 20th. That morning we see a jump in size to a 4ft swell from the WNW, with a short 7-second period and a light cross-off breeze from the NNE at 10 km/h. The combined energy climbs to 173, which is moderate. The report says “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions”. This is promising for a wave, but it’s far from a classic. The short period will make it a bit chaotic and the tide will be a factor.
The afternoon of the 20th gets blown out with a fresh 30 km/h cross-shore wind, so that window is tight.
The standout, if you can call it that, is the morning of Wednesday, July 22nd. We see a 6ft swell from the west with a 7-second period, and the combined energy jumps to 303 – that’s strong, moderate energy. The wind is a light cross-on from the NW at 15 km/h, so it’ll be a bit lumpy, but the size is there. This is really for the experienced crew only, as it’s over 5ft and the short period will make it dumpy and hard to handle. The swell direction is west, which matches the optimum direction for this point break, so it could line up alright. But the wind is cross-on, so it won’t be glassy.
If you’re a beginner, stay away from the 22nd. If you’re an expert, it’s the only real chance at a proper wave all week, but don’t expect perfection. The following days the swell drops back to 4ft to 4ft with cross-onshore winds, so it’s back to choppy, ordinary conditions.
Look, there’s no true standout here. The window is tight, the swell is short-period, and the wind is rarely favorable. The morning of July 22nd is the one to keep an eye on, but it’s a long-range call and a bit of a gamble. For most of the time, you’ll be better off on the beach with a book.
Rusty.
