The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a proper look at what’s on the table for La Perle over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a flat spell and nothing changes for a while. The whole 16-day window is a write-off for any kind of decent wave. From Sunday the 9th through to Monday the 24th, every single report calls it "poor surf conditions" with a score of zero. That’s a solid 16-day gap with nothing worth paddling out for.
First up, Sunday the 9th and Monday the 10th: tiny swell around 1 ft from the NE, period sitting at 8 or 9 seconds. Combined wave energy is weak, between 18 and 32. Winds are a moderate cross-off from the east at 16 to 12 mph, so the surface is clean, but there’s simply no push. Water temp is 84°, which is about normal for this time of year.
Through the middle of the week, Tuesday the 11th through Thursday the 13th, the swell drops even further—1 ft down to 0.3 ft. The energy figures are pathetic, dipping as low as 2. Winds stay cross-off but pick up to a fresh breeze by Thursday, hitting 22 mph. Not a single window for a wave.
Friday the 14th and Saturday the 15th are more of the same: 0.7 ft to 1 ft, still NE or NNE, with strong breeze winds at 25 mph on Friday. That’s kite-surfing wind, not paddle-surfing swell.
The second week is just as bleak. From Sunday the 16th right through to Monday the 24th, swell stays under 1 ft. A couple of glassy mornings pop up on Tuesday the 18th and Thursday the 20th, with calm or light winds, but there’s nothing to ride. By Saturday the 22nd, we finally get a light offshore breeze from the ESE, but the swell is only 0.3 ft to 0.7 ft. Not enough to stand up on.
There are no standouts. Nothing even close. If you’re after waves, this stretch is a dead loss. La Perle is an inconsistent sandbar that needs a proper pulse from the NW, and we’re not getting it. The sheltered setup just isn’t lighting up.
For this area, a blank run like this is pretty normal when the swell direction and size don’t line up. Forecasts can change, but right now, there’s nothing to get excited about.

Information about the La Perle Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for La Perle provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at La Perle can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our La Perle 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 Perle) 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 Perle 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.
