The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Looks like we’re in for a real quiet stretch on the water at Rade de Croisic. We’ve got a solid 16-day window ahead, but honestly, the surf is a no-show for the vast majority of it. The first real taste of anything rideable doesn’t pop up until Monday, August 3rd, and even then, it’s barely a whisper.

From now through the end of July and into early August, it’s flat or nearly flat. The swell is tiny, and the wind is mostly onshore or cross-shore, messing up what little bump there is. There’s a couple of glassy mornings – like Friday, July 31st morning with calm conditions – but with only 0.4ft of swell, it’s a lake, not a surf. The combined energy is just a measly 22 (weak energy), so your best bet is to wax the longboard for a paddle and a tan, not a wave.

The only day that even gets a passing glance is Monday, August 3rd. The morning brings a tiny 2ft swell from the west, with a period of 8 seconds. The wind is a gentle cross-offshore breeze from the north-northeast at 9 mph, which will keep it clean. The combined energy hits 61 (weak still), and the sea state is described as “clean.” It’s surfable, but “very ordinary conditions” is the call. This is strictly for the longboard or a foamie, and even then, you’ll be scratching for a ride. The water temp is around 66° and about average for this time of year.

After that brief moment, we’re back to the doldrums. Tuesday, August 4th morning is glassy again, but with 1ft of swell, it’s more of the same. The energy is just 23 (weak). Wednesday, August 5th morning has a clean cross-offshore breeze from the northeast, but the swell is only 1.0ft with a long period of 11 seconds. That long period means the waves will be fat and slow, with long lulls.

Look, I’ll be straight with you: there’s no standout session here. Not a single one. The surf is just too small, and the wind too inconsistent to make anything worth paddling for. If you’re a kite surfer, the afternoons with stronger onshore winds might offer some interest, but for paddle surfing, this is a total blank. The good news is, when it’s this quiet, it usually doesn’t stay poor for long, and forecasts can change. Keep an eye on it, but don’t hold your breath.
