The Lowdown

Well, folks, it’s a tough stretch ahead for Rade de Croisic. Honestly, the next couple of weeks are looking pretty grim for any real surf action. There's a long flat spell at the start with nothing rideable.

Saturday the 18th kicks things off with a tiny 0.7ft of west swell, and the wind is howling onshore by the afternoon at 16 mph. The water temp is about average for the time of year. No point even getting wet. Sunday the 19th is cleaner with offshore winds, but that swell is still a pathetic 0.7ft. This flatness drags on through the whole week and into the next. It’s not until Monday the 27th that we see a pulse of energy, with swell hitting 3ft and combined energy climbing to 111 (moderate energy), but the wind is cross-onshore and it’s messy. Tuesday the 28th morning has a bit more size at 4ft and moderate energy at 163, but again, onshore winds spoil it. Towards the end, on Wednesday the 29th morning, we get a 2ft west swell with a longer period of 11 seconds and glassy conditions, combined energy at 125 (moderate). That’s about the best of a bad bunch, but it’s still small and weak. This break needs a proper swell and clean wind, and we just aren’t getting either. For now, it’s a write-off for paddle surfing, and the setup looks more interesting for kite surfing if the wind holds.
