Alright, Rusty here, checking in with a look at what's coming our way for La Palue over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, if you're looking to get barrelled or score anything epic, you’re going to need a lot of patience. The next few days are a real struggle, with hardly any energy and a lot of onshore junk. Most of the first week is small and messy, with a few windows where it gets glassy but still tiny. The water is sitting at 67°, which is about 5° warmer than normal for this time of year – a real treat for the skin, even if the surf isn't.
The highlight, and really the only standout in the whole run, arrives on Monday, July 21st. We get a sudden pulse of swell, jumping to 6ft on Tuesday morning, coming from the NW with a short period of 7 seconds. The combined energy ramps up hard to 335, which is moderate but a big jump. The problem is the wind is hammering cross-onshore, making it choppy and poor quality. This is an expert-only game, because it’s a lot of lumpy, raw power. For the average punter, it’s going to look more interesting for kite surfing than a clean paddle session.
Before that, the best you can hope for are those glassy, tiny mornings. Tuesday July 8th is a good example: 3ft from the WNW, glassy, and a combined energy of 109. Not much power, but you can get a few knee-high runners on a longboard if you're desperate. Wednesday July 9th has similar vibes but cross-off winds. The weekend of July 12th and 13th has clean offshore winds but the swell drops to a pathetic 2ft or less. The period drops to 4 seconds, which is useless.
So, the long-range call on the 21st is the one to circle on the calendar. It’s a long way out, so not certain, but if the wind cleans up, that NW swell could have some punch. For now, it's a waiting game.
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.
