The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let's look at what we've got for Rade de Croisic.

Honestly, straight up, this is a grim run. We’re looking at a solid 16-day window where the surf just isn't going to cooperate. The first few days are a write-off with strong, messy onshore winds and poor conditions. There’s a real gap from the start here, with nothing worth paddling out for. We finally see the wind turn clean in the second half, but the swell just completely dies. Overall, the pattern is one of poor quality surf, so I’m not getting excited about any session.

The only faintest glimmer is on the morning of Thursday the 12th of September. You get a tiny 0.7ft (57) whisper of a swell from the west-southwest, with a very long period of 17 seconds. A light northerly-northeasterly cross-offshore breeze and clean conditions mean the surface will be nice, but you’re chasing bumps. That long period means the waves will be super lined-up, but with a south-west exposure, it’s going to be tough to find a wave with any push. It’s clean but it’s a gamble.

Later on, Friday the 18th of September looks like a better bet for the conditions, but still tiny. The morning is a clean 2ft with a moderate offshore breeze, and by the afternoon, it drops to 1ft but with a glassy, light offshore wind. The swell period stretches out to 12 seconds, so there’s a bit of long-period groundswell trying to push in. The combined energy is only (82) and (74) for those windows, so it’s weak, but for a small wave log, the clean conditions late in the day on the 18th might be the only real chance you get to wet a line. For the whole 16 days, that’s as good as it gets, but it’s nothing to write home about.

The water is going to be "much warmer than normal" at 69°F, with a 4°F anomaly. That’s definitely notable for this time of year, a good 4 degrees warmer than average, so you can ditch the thick rubber.

Because the swell is so consistently tiny and weak through the whole 16-day window, there’s no standout break to call out. It’s just all poor or surfable-but-ordinary. With the clean, offshore wind windows on the 18th, it might be a fun session on a longboard, but I can’t call it a standout. For the most part, this coast looks flat and clean, which is a bummer.

Stay hopeful, though. Even a blank run like this can change.

Rusty.
