Le Moule Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, folks. Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you about what’s on the table for the next couple of weeks at Le Moule. It’s a bit of a tough one to call.

We’ve got consistent swell running through the entire 16-day window, but it’s all coming from the east around 3 ft to 6 ft, with a short period of just 7 to 8 seconds. That’s pretty weak, wind-swell energy, and it’s not going to be the kind of surf that gets your heart racing. The combined energy of the swells is moderate, ranging from about 149 up to 428 in the brackets, but it’s all being mucked up by the wind. The wind is stuck in the east-southeast to east, blowing at 12 to 19 mph right across the face, making it a messy, cross-shore chop most of the time. Sometimes it tips into cross-onshore, which just adds to the lumpiness. Because of this, the surf quality is poor, and the score is a flat zero right through. There’s no standout day, no hidden gem. The water temperature is 82° with a near-zero anomaly, so it’s completely normal for the time of year.

The first real surfable action? It’s a waiting game. There’s a gap of almost two weeks until the last few days of the month. Wednesday, the 30th of July, is the best we can muster, and it’s barely a recommendation. The swell is still short-period at 5 ft, with a combined energy of 272 to 284. The wind stays cross-shore, but the surf is still poor. Honestly, for a beach-and-reef setup like Le Moule with this much cross-breeze, the conditions look more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. Crowds are likely if you go, but the waves won’t be worth the push.

So, to wrap it up: there’s nothing worth chasing in the first 16 days. The forecast is poor, and the wind just won’t cooperate. It’s a blank run for the area.

Rusty.
