Alright folks, Rusty here. Let me level with you: the next couple of weeks at Rade de Croisic are looking flat. Real flat. I’m talking no surf worth paddling out for – every single session from Monday the 6th of July right through to Tuesday the 21st of July comes up with a score of zero. That’s a solid 16-day gap with nothing to chase.
Now, this break is usually fairly consistent, and it’s exposed to the west-southwest, which is what we want. But the swell just isn’t showing up. Heights are mostly 1ft to 2ft, peaking at a measly 3ft on Saturday the 18th of July afternoon, but even then it’s short-period (5 seconds) and onshore wind (W at 16 mph) – that’s a recipe for messy, weak lines. Combined wave energy nudges into moderate territory only on Tuesday the 21st morning (105), but again, poor conditions. The best we get is the occasional light offshore breeze (E or ENE) with tiny 1ft swell, but that’s still hopeless for a proper wave.
Don’t write the spot off though – it tends not to stay this poor for long, and forecasts can flip. Keep an eye on the charts. For now, save the petrol and wax. I’ll be back when there’s something to get excited about.
Rusty.
