The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you. This is a tough one for Tregastel Plage. The whole 16-day window is looking grim, and there’s not a single moment where the surf quality is worth paddling out for. Every single session is marked as "poor surf conditions," so we’re in for a long, flat, and messy run.
The first spot of interest doesn’t even come until the afternoon of August 3rd, and even then, it’s a total washout. The water’s sitting at about 65°F, which is pretty normal for this time of year, so at least you won’t be freezing while you’re staring at the flat ocean.
From August 3rd all the way through to the 18th, there’s not a single day that offers any decent surf. That’s over two weeks of nothing. The swell is tiny, rarely even cracking 3 ft, and when it does get a little bumpy around August 5th with a 6 ft WNW swell, the wind is cross-onshore and choppy, making it completely unappealing. The combined energy only hits 389 (moderate) on that Wednesday morning, but the wind just ruins it. The rest of the time, the energy is weak, often below 100.
Forget about any standout waves. The whole period is a bust. The winds are mostly cross-onshore or onshore, keeping the surface messy. Even when the wind goes cross-offshore on August 10th, 11th, and 12th, the swell is so small—2 ft to 3 ft—that it’s just not worth the effort. The period is mostly short, around 5 to 9 seconds, so there’s no power or shape to speak of.
If you’re a kite surfer, the stronger winds on August 4th (19 mph) and August 11th (22 mph) might catch your eye, but for paddle surfing, it’s a hard pass.
The forecast can always change, but for now, this stretch of coast is giving us nothing. With a break this inconsistent, a blank run like this is more normal for the area. Hang tight, folks.
Rusty.
