The Lowdown

Alright, this is Rusty, and let’s be real about the next couple of weeks here at Rade de Croisic. It’s a long, dry spell for surfers.

From Friday, July 17th, all the way through to the morning of Monday, July 27th, the surf is completely flat or junk. That’s a solid ten days of nothing. The waves are tiny, the wind is bad, and the scores are all zeros. You’ll see a bit of clean wind on Sunday, July 19th, but the swell is only 0.7ft, so it’s not enough to ride.

The first real chance comes on Tuesday morning, July 28th. The wind is clean offshore from the SE, and the water is glassy. The swell is still tiny at 1.0ft from the west, with a period of 9 seconds, and the combined energy is a weak 52. It’s surfable, but very ordinary. The break is fairly consistent, so you might see a few others out.

After that, it’s back to poor conditions. The wind stays onshore or cross-onshore, and the swell stays small, under 3ft, with short periods. The combined energy hits 185 on Friday morning, July 31st, but the wind is cross-onshore at 9 mph, making it messy. The water temp is about average for this time of year.

The only real standout is that Tuesday morning, July 28th. It’s the only window with a clean offshore wind and any kind of rideable wave. The swell direction from the west isn’t ideal for the optimum SW, and the size is tiny, but it’s the best we’ve got. The rest of the two weeks is a total bust.

Rusty.

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).

Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Rade de Croisic may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
