The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's cookin' for Pointe du Toulinguet.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – this is a tough stretch. For the first week and a half, it's a real shutout. We're looking at a solid 12-day gap with absolutely nothing worth paddling out for. The waves are tiny, the wind is messy, and the whole setup is just frustrating. From Saturday the 1st all the way through Thursday the 13th, the conditions are consistently poor. You'd be wasting your time and energy.
Now, there is a glimmer of hope, but it's a distant one. On Sunday, August 9th, the swell finally shows up. The morning brings a 8 ft swell from the west with a period of 9 seconds. That's a solid amount of power, and the combined energy is a hefty 1909. That's a proper punch. But, and it's a big but, the wind is a cross-onshore from the NW at 6 mph. It's light, which is a saving grace, but that onshore angle will put a bit of a bump on the face. The strong energy (1909) is there, but it's a bit of a beast. For a point break, that long-ish period should line it up nicely, giving you some nice lines to work with.
This is the only real standout in the whole 16 days. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there. The offshore wind direction is east, so when it finally glassed off we'd be in heaven, but that's not happening here.
Honestly, the rest of the outlook is a write-off. The following week sees a slow drop back into small, choppy junk. Between the 10th and the 16th, it's all small, weak, and messy. There's a moment on the 11th with a 4 ft cross-shore, but that's a "marginal" call, and the score is low. For the most part, the wind is either onshore or cross-onshore, and the waves are just too small or too chopped up to care about.
So, to sum it up: save your energy for a week and a half. That Sunday, August 9th morning is your one shot. Get out there early for the best chance at a cleanish 8 ft west swell. After that, it's back to the waiting game.
Stay stoked, Rusty.
