The Lowdown

Alright, this is Rusty checking in from Rade de Croisic, and to be honest, it’s pretty grim. I’ve been staring at the charts and there’s just nothing on the table for over two weeks. The entire 16-day outlook is a write-off. Not a single session worth paddling out for.

Right now, Wednesday morning, we’ve got a tiny 1.0ft swell coming from the west with a period of 9 seconds. Combined wave energy is a weak 16. The wind is light offshore from the west at 3 mph, which would normally be a tease, but the surf quality is just awful. The water temp is running at 66°, pretty normal for this time of year.

Into Thursday and Friday, the swell stays small, the wind swings onshore or cross-shore, and it just gets messier. That tiny 2ft from the west on Friday afternoon? Forget it, period drops to 4 seconds and the energy crashes to 9. That’s not surf, that’s just bumpy water.

Over the weekend, same story. A bit of a clean look on Sunday morning with a cross-offshore breeze from the northeast at 9 mph, but the swell is only 1.0ft. The following week is a desert. Monday the 5th through to Wednesday the 14th of August has a few clean moments – like Monday the 5th morning with a light cross-offshore breeze, or Monday the 10th with an offshore wind from the east at 12 mph – but the swell never gets above 2ft, and the energy readings are all in the single digits to low twenties. That’s not even ankle-high whitewater most days.

This is one of those stretches where the area just goes flat. There’s zero consistency for any decent surf. It’s a total blank run. For the kitesurfers, there might be something to play with on the afternoons when the wind picks up from the west or northwest to 19-22 mph, but for paddle surfing, leave the board at home. Forecasts can change, but as it stands, it's a two-week dud.

Rusty.
