The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the table for Pointe du Toulinguet over the next couple of weeks.
To be straight with you, this is a grim outlook. The next week to ten days is basically a write-off. The wind is wrong, the sea state is messy, and the scores tell the story – there’s nothing to get excited about. We’ve got a long, frustrating gap of poor surf conditions stretching from Friday the 28th of August all the way through to the end of the first week of September. The swell energy is weak to moderate, with a lot of choppy, cross-onshore wind ruining any chance of a clean wave.
The first real glimmer of hope comes on Saturday the 5th of September. It’s not big, with a waist-high swell of 3 ft coming from the WNW, but the wind goes glassy off the NW. That’s the kind of calm that makes a point break like this one come alive. The combined swell energy is still modest at 255, but for a point break that likes a W swell, the direction is on the money, and glassy conditions are pure gold. That morning session will be the standout of the whole run, and it’s the one to aim for. Keep in mind, it’s a point break, it breaks fairly consistently, and crowds are a possibility, so get there early.
After that, we slip back into mediocrity until the 7th of September. Monday afternoon the 7th brings another brief window with a 5 ft W swell and glassy conditions, which is worth a look. The swell energy jumps to 481, so there's some push there, but it's still a short-period swell at 8 seconds, so it won't have the same grunt as a proper groundswell.
From the 8th onwards, it's mostly poor again. The swell drops off hard into the second week, with tiny waves and weak energy. The wind does go clean and cross-off on the 10th and glassy again on the 11th and 12th, but at 2 ft to 3 ft and a short period, it's barely a ripple. Not worth paddling out for unless you're desperate.
So, the bottom line: keep the board in the car for that Saturday the 5th, and maybe Monday the 7th. The rest of the fortnight is a right-off. It’s a blank run, but that’s how it goes around here when the wind sets in.
Rusty.
