The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's cookin' for the next couple of weeks.
Right now, it’s pretty flat. We’ve got a bit of a waiting game on our hands. The first few days are showing tiny, weak swell with no real push. Thursday the 3rd is a write-off with poor conditions. Friday the 4th morning has a tiny 2ft from the WNW, but it’s glassy and clean – you could get a grovel board out for a laugh, but it's not really worth paddling for. We need to wait until Saturday the 5th for things to start waking up.
Saturday the 5th is where it gets interesting. The morning has light 3ft WNW swell with glassy conditions, but the real standout is Saturday afternoon. We see a solid jump to 5ft from the NW with a proper 13-second period, and the wind is a light cross-offshore from the NE. That’s pumping energy through, and for La Graviere, that combo is pure gold. This is the best window of the whole outlook. The water is sitting at 74° which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, so you won’t need a thick suit.
Sunday the 6th is a bit of a letdown after that. The morning has 5ft NW, but it’s cross-on and choppy. By the afternoon the wind is onshore and messy. Monday the 7th is pretty average, mostly onshore wind and messy chop.
The first half of the second week has a few salvageable windows. Tuesday the 8th morning shows 5ft WNW with a cross-offshore breeze from the NNE keeping things clean – worth a paddle. A decent bit of energy in the water. Thursday the 10th morning also has a clean 4ft with light cross-off winds, but it’s pretty ordinary. After that, we hit a lull again from Friday the 11th through to Tuesday the 15th. Wave heights drop below 3ft most days, and the wind is either cross or onshore. It’s a slow, flat run.
The only other worth mentioning is Wednesday the 16th morning. That sees a return of some decent swell – 4ft WNW with 11 seconds and a light offshore from the ENE. Clean conditions and solid energy, which is a nice little pulse. It’s not as strong as that Saturday the 5th session, but it’s the best of the second week. After that, Thursday the 17th and Friday the 18th start fading again.
If you’re picking a session this fortnight, you clear your calendar for Saturday the 5th afternoon. That’s the one. The rest is fluff or waiting.
