Alright, listen up. Rusty here, and I’m calling it like I see it. The next 16 days for Rade de Croisic are a total bust. There’s nothing worth getting wet for. The nearest thing to a pulse is on the morning of Saturday, July 4th, with a 2ft swell from the west and a combined energy of (104), but the quality is rated rock bottom. That’s not a session—that’s a waste of wax.
The story doesn’t improve. A little bump in swell shows up around July 11th and 12th, with heights reaching 4ft to 4ft and energy climbing into the low 180s, but the wind is blowing straight onshore or cross-onshore the whole time. It’s a complete chop-fest. Swell direction is W and WNW, but without the right wind, it’s just messy whitewater. Then on July 14th, we get a glassy morning with the wind dead calm from the south (United States), but the swell is only 2ft with a 6-second period and energy of (39). That’s barely a ripple.
From July 15th onward, it’s game over. Through to the 19th, we’re looking at 0.7ft to 1ft of weak, short-period junk. Energy levels drop into the single digits. The water is sitting at 68°F—which is notably warmer than usual for this time of year—but you can’t surf on warm water alone.
This is one of those stretches where the ocean just shuts down. It happens here. Don’t force it, don’t try to chase it. The forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a solid zero. Keep the fins dry.
Rusty.
