Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's chew the fat on what La Palue is cooking up for us.
It’s a bit of a mixed bag ahead. We’ve got a run of surfable days coming up, but don't expect perfection every session. The early part of the period has the most potential, especially if you can pick your windows. There’s a standout or two if you time it right.
Thursday the 2nd is a write-off with that choppy, cross-on wind so we’ll skip that. The first real hope comes Friday morning, the 3rd of July. The swell is a solid 5ft from the WNW with a period of 10 seconds, and the wind is a light cross-off from the NNE. That’s clean conditions and the wave energy is solid at 490 (moderate). This is your best bet for the whole outlook, no doubt about it. The water temperature is a very unusual 67°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year.
Saturday morning the 4th is another good shout. The swell drops a little to 4ft but the wind goes near glassy with that NNE breeze at only 3 mph. It’ll be clean again, with moderate energy (267). After that, Sunday the 5th through to Thursday the 10th have some clean windows with smaller surf, but those are more for a longboard or a funboard – the energy drops off into the double digits.
Now, for the second week, things get a bit sketchy. From around the 11th onwards, the wind turns mostly cross-on or onshore, and the swell gets smaller and weaker with low energy readings (down to 43 or 50). There’s a moment on Thursday morning the 16th with a clean cross-off wind but the swell is only 1ft. Honestly, after the first weekend, there’s not much to get excited about. A long gap of mostly poor conditions settles in from Sunday the 12th right through to the end of the outlook, with several days of nothing worthwhile.
Keep your eyes on Friday morning, July 3rd. That’s the standout.
Stay salty,
Rusty

Information about the La Palue Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for La Palue provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at La Palue can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our La Palue surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (La Palue) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. 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 La Palue 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.
