The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. I gotta be straight with you – the next couple of weeks are looking pretty grim around here. We’ve got a long stretch of small, wind-chopped swell and poor conditions, so don’t be in a rush to grab your board.
We’re looking at Pointe du Toulinguet, and this spot is typically an exposed point break that wants a good W swell. For the first ten days, it’s just not happening. Sunday the 2nd through Monday the 12th of August is a real downer. We’re talking windblown, cross-onshore junk with tiny 1.0ft to 5ft swell that’s all over the place. The combined energy is weak, mostly in the 30 to 200 range, and the forecasts are all calling it “poor surf conditions.” There are a couple of glassy mornings on the 7th and 8th, but the swell is practically non-existent at 1ft to 3ft – not worth paddling out for.
The first real glimmer of hope finally shows up on Wednesday morning, the 12th of August. We get a bit of a pulse, with 4ft of WSW swell coming in at a 9-second period. The combined energy jumps to 282 (moderate), and the wind is a light, clean cross-offshore from the NNE. That’s the best we’ll see, a short window of clean, lined-up waves. If you can get out that morning, you’ll be rewarded.
After that, it’s back to the slop, but the second week of August does build some size. Sunday the 16th and Monday the 17th see the swell jump up to 7ft to 8ft from the WNW, with a combined energy of 759 on Sunday and a massive 1119 on Monday morning. That’s a lot of water moving, but it’s coming with cross-onshore winds and a short, 8-second period. The wave comment says “marginal surf forecast,” and honestly, for a point break, that short-period, wind-affected swell will be choppy and messy. This is more of a kite surfer’s session than a clean paddle wave. The 8ft on Monday the 17th is big enough to be expert-only if it’s closing out.
So, the standout? Wednesday morning the 12th of August. That’s your one to circle. The rest is a waiting game. Water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing unusual to report.
Rusty.
