The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here from the Rade de Croisic. Looking at the charts, it’s a pretty quiet start with a long wait for the good stuff. The water’s a balmy 72°, which is about 7° warmer than usual for this time of year. Makes for a real nice tropical paddle even when the surf is flat.

For the first week and a half, from now through the 23rd of July, it’s flat to tiny. There are some clean mornings with light offshore winds on the 18th, 19th, and 22nd, but the swell is barely a knee-high ripple at 0.7 feet. The combined energy is practically nothing, reading as low as 3 to 11 (weak energy). It’s a real bummer, but that’s just how it’s looking.

Things finally start to change on the 24th of July. Friday morning brings the first real hope. We’ve got a 4-foot SW groundswell with a 7-second period, and a clean offshore wind from the ENE. The combined energy jumps to 269 (moderate wave energy). It’s the first decent window, but the swell is still a bit raw.

The standout window is the morning of Saturday, the 25th of July. That’s the one. The Rade de Croisic is set to get a solid 6-foot swell from the WSW, with a 10-second period. That’s proper groundswell with some real punch. The combined energy is a very strong 627 (strong wave energy). The wind is a tiny offshore breeze from the ENE, basically glassy. This is going to be clean, head-high plus, and powerful. It’s a beautiful setup for a point or reef. Just keep in mind that with a 6-foot swell, it’s too big for groms, and the crowds around here can be an issue, so get there early. The afternoon on the 25th gets blown out by a strong onshore wind, so the morning session is the only window.

The days after that have some leftovers but the wind is messy again. Saturday morning, the 25th, is the only real standout. It’s a long way off, so keep checking back, but right now, that’s your best shot.

Rusty.

A general guide to surfing at Rade de Croisic can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

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.
