The Lowdown
G’day, I’m Rusty. Let’s be straight with you – over the next 16 days, the surf at Larmor Plage is looking pretty grim. There’s no standout session, no real window of quality, just a whole lot of small, weak, and messy conditions. The water temperature is sitting at 66°F, which is bang on average for this time of year, so at least you won’t need a thick wetsuit.
The first week is a write-off. From Saturday 1 August right through to Wednesday 6 August, we’re seeing tiny swell heights of 2ft to 3ft, mostly from the west, with periods struggling between 6 and 10 seconds. The combined wave energy is weak, only reaching 76 and 137 on the best days, and the wind is a problem – mostly cross or cross-on, with a fresh breeze on Monday afternoon kicking up a lumpy cross-chop. There’s nothing worth paddling out for.
Thursday 6 August morning offers a slight glimmer, with a 3ft swell from the west, a cross-off northwest breeze, and clean conditions. But the period is only 7 seconds, and the energy is still weak at 104. It’s surfable, but it’s ordinary – not something I’d get excited about.
After that, it gets even worse. From Friday 7 August through to Sunday 16 August, the swell drops to 2ft or less, with periods as short as 4 seconds on Tuesday 11 August, and the wind either cross-off or cross-on. The combined energy barely reaches 82 on the better days. There’s a glassy moment on Thursday 13 August morning with a 2ft west swell, but it’s tiny and weak. Honestly, if you’re looking for a proper session, you’re out of luck. This setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing, especially with the stronger winds later in the second week.
Best option? If you’re desperate, Thursday 6 August morning is the only time that’s even surfable – 3ft west swell, clean with a light offshore breeze. But it’s not a standout. The rest? Just give it a miss.
Rusty.

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