Alright, Rusty here, letting you know how things are shaping up for Le Kerou over the next couple of weeks. Gotta be straight with you, it's been a quiet stretch and it's going to stay quiet for a while.
Right now, and for the next week and a half, it is flat. We're looking at a solid run of days with hardly any swell to speak of. From now through to about the 15th of July, it's pretty grim – waves are tiny, mostly below 2ft, and when there is a little bump, the wind messes it up. There's a glimmer of clean conditions Friday morning the 3rd, with a glassy 3ft swell from the West, period of 10 seconds, and moderate wave energy (194), but it's just not enough to get excited about. The water is sitting at 65°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year.
The real standout, and the only time this forecast period really looks like it might deliver, is Saturday the 18th of July. The morning is where you want to be in the water. We've got a solid 6ft groundswell from the WSW, with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy jumps right up (750), which is a big step up from the nothing we've been seeing. That's pushing into the realm of expert surf, as it's over 5ft, so leave the foamies at home. The wind will be light and cross-onshore, so it won't be glassy, but it will be rideable. The crowd situation at Le Kerou can be a thing, so expect some company if it's working.
Unfortunately, the afternoon on that same Saturday turns ugly with a moderate cross-onshore breeze wrecking the shape. So, the call is simple: wait it out for the 18th, get on it first thing, and that's your shot.
Stay patient.

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.
