The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming up for Pointe du Toulinguet over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you—this is a tough stretch. We’re looking at a long, dry spell of poor surf conditions. The first real hope doesn’t show up until Tuesday, the 1st of September, and even then, it’s a one-session window. From now until then, we’ve got a solid week of near-flat, messy, or blown-out waves. The water temp is sitting at 64°, which is bang on average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The only standout in this whole outlook is the Tuesday morning session on the 1st of September. We’ve got a clean, glassy morning with a light NNW breeze—basically no wind at all. The swell is a small 5ft from the WNW, with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy is moderate at 247. It’s not going to be a world-beater, but for this spot, it’s the best we’ll see. The offshore wind is from the east, which is the optimum direction for Pointe du Toulinguet, so it should be clean and lined up. This is a point break that’s fairly consistent, so it’s worth a paddle.
The rest of the week is a write-off. Thursday the 27th of August sees a big pulse of 7ft swell from the SW, but with a 19 mph cross-onshore wind and a risk of thunderstorms, it’s a mess. The combined energy is strong at 1292, but the wind will chop it up. That’s more of a kite-surfing setup than something for a traditional surfboard.
By the time we get to the 7th of September, the swell drops back to 3ft and the wind is strong again. Nothing to get excited about.
So, bottom line: if you’re free on the morning of Tuesday the 1st of September, hit it. Otherwise, the 16-day window is pretty barren. Hang in there, forecasts can change.
Rusty.
