The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here, let’s break it down for Le Kerou.

First off, we’re in for a rough patch. For the rest of August and into the first few days of September, the swell is there, but the wind is a nightmare – mostly onshore or cross-onshore, churning up the surface. The water temp is about 65°F, which is dead normal for this time of year. It’s a long stretch of mostly junk conditions.

The first real chance to get wet is on Thursday, September 3rd in the morning. We’ve got a small 3ft west swell, 8-second period, but the wind goes glassy. The combined energy is weak at 90, but for a beginner break, that glassy surface is gold. It’ll be small and clean.

Things look a touch better on Friday, September 4th morning. A 2ft west swell with an 11-second period, and a light cross-off wind from the east. That period gives it a bit of shape, and the combined energy is 121. Not a standout, but a decent option for a clean, mellow session.

The one to get up for is Tuesday, September 8th in the morning. We’re looking at a 4ft swell from the WSW at 9 seconds, with a light cross-off breeze from the north. The combined energy hits 412, which is a solid moderate push. The wind will keep the surface clean, and the waves will have enough juice to be fun. That’s your best bet of the whole 16 days.

After that, the swell drops back down. The mornings of September 9th and 10th have clean, light offshore or cross-off winds, but the swell is under 3ft, with energy dropping below 60. It’ll be small, weak, and only worth it if you just need to be in the water.

So, in a nutshell: the first week and a half is mostly a bust. The standout is Tuesday, September 8th morning – clean, moderate swell, and your best chance at a proper surf.

Rusty.

Information about the Le Kerou Surf forecast

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