The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s happening in the water.

First up, we’re looking at Rade de Croisic. It’s an exposed spot that does best with swell from the southwest. The whole 16-day window is a tough one, honestly. There’s a big gap at the start here: from Wednesday the 9th right through to about Thursday the 24th, it’s pretty much a write-off. The only hint of something surfable comes in the second week.

Let’s break it down. Wednesday the 9th is a no-go – cross-on wind, choppy, and the wave energy is weak. Thursday the 10th morning has clean conditions with a light offshore breeze, but the swell is tiny at 2ft and the period is short (8 seconds), so it’s just not doing anything. The combined energy is only 39, so you’re looking at flatness.

The first real glimmer comes on Saturday the 12th in the morning. Swell is still tiny at 2ft from the west, but we’ve got a light cross-off breeze and clean conditions. The energy is still weak (51), but it’s the best we’ve seen. Sunday the 13th morning is also worth a mention: glassy, dead calm, 2ft west swell with a longer period (11 seconds), giving you a bit more shape. Energy is 85. Still not big, but for a spot that’s been flat, this is the standout.

After that, it’s back to poor surf until the end of the window. Wednesday the 24th morning shows a glimmer again: 2ft west swell, clean cross-off wind, and a long period of 12 seconds. Energy is 80. It’s surfable, but very ordinary.

The only real standout here is Sunday the 13th morning – glassy, clean, with a longer period swell that’ll wrap in nicely. It’s not big, but it’s the best you’ll get. Because this spot is a harbour, that longer period groundswell (11 seconds) will actually work in its favour.

No big swell to get excited about. No big winds. It’s a lean stretch. You might get a little session in on the 13th, but don’t hold your breath for the rest.

That’s it from me.

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).
