The Lowdown
Alright crew, Rusty here. Let’s talk about Pointe du Toulinguet for the next couple of weeks. I’ll be honest, it’s looking pretty bleak for most of it. This is a point break, exposed to the west, and it’s fairly consistent, but the wind and weather are just not playing ball.
The water temp is sitting right around 65°, which is dead average for this time of year, so no complaints there.
The first real chance of a wave doesn’t show up until Tuesday, August 11th. That’s a solid week and a half of nothing but chop and junk. The wave energy is weak for the first week, with combined swell energy values barely cracking 100, and the wind is mostly cross to cross-onshore, tearing up any chance of a clean face. You’ll see a few days with swell around 3ft to 3ft, but the wind is just rubbish, so it’s a write-off.
The only standout, and it’s a big one, lands on the morning of Tuesday, August 11th. We’ve got a solid 8ft swell from the WNW, with a period of 10 seconds, and the combined energy is a massive 2323 – that’s some serious power. The wind is a gentle cross-onshore, which is the best we’ll see in this whole forecast. It’s a bit much for beginners, but if you’ve got the skills, that’s a proper session. The swell direction is a good fit for the break, and while it’s not glassy, that gentle breeze is a blessing compared to the fresh winds before and after. The afternoon of that same day drops off a bit to 7ft and the wind picks up.
The second week has a few other moments, but nothing else comes close to that Tuesday morning. August 9th has a 7ft swell from the west, but it’s hammered by 30 km/h winds, making it lumpy and nasty. August 10th afternoon has an 8ft swell from the west with a very long 12-second period, but again, the wind is fresh cross-onshore, so it’s going to be a fight. That long period at a point break is usually a good thing, but the wind ruins it.
So, here’s the deal. Be patient. If you’re keen, set your sights on Pointe du Toulinguet for the morning of Tuesday, August 11th. That’s your window. It’s a long wait, but the reward is there. For the rest of it, you’re better off checking the wind forecast and hoping for a change. With a break that’s fairly consistent, it usually doesn’t stay this bad for long, but this run is a real test of patience.
Rusty.

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.

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).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Pointe du Toulinguet may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself.
