The Lowdown
Alright, grab your wettie and listen up, this is Rusty.
Alright folks, let's be straight up about this one. We're looking at a real bummer of a 16-day window for Pointe du Toulinguet. For the first two weeks, from now until about the 21st of August, it's a write-off. There's nothing but small, junky swell and lousy wind. Honestly, it’s a whole lot of nothing for paddle surfing, and with that constant cross-onshore wind, it might actually be more fun for the kite crew if you're into that.
Even the local water temp is nothing to write home about; it’s sitting at 18.8°, which is pretty average for this time of year, so no wetsuit complaints there.
Now, the one thing that *does* catch your eye is a pulse of energy arriving on Saturday the 22nd of August. The combined swell energy jumps to 483, then a massive 714 by the afternoon, with wave heights building to 5.6ft and then 6.9ft from the W and WNW. That’s real, proper swell. But here’s the kicker – the wind is howling onshore at 15.5 to 18.6 mph. The whole setup looks blown out and messy. It continues through Sunday the 23rd with solid 9.8ft faces and a good 10-second period, but again that fresh cross-onshore wind just ruins it. It's a real shame because there's power in that water, but it's going to be a choppy, lumpy mess that only the experts on a big board will want to paddle into. For almost two weeks straight we have nothing, then we get the size but with the wind against us. This one is a pass. I’m not seeing a single standout day for a good, clean surf here.

Information about the Pointe du Toulinguet Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Pointe du Toulinguet provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Pointe du Toulinguet can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Pointe du Toulinguet surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period.

Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
