The Lowdown

Alright, this is Rusty checking in. Let's be honest with you right off the bat: it’s looking pretty bleak for Le Kerou over the next couple of weeks. We've got a long, drawn-out stretch of poor to ordinary conditions coming our way.

Looking at the whole picture, the first real standout is a long way off. For the next ten days, from August 13th through to August 24th, the story is mostly tiny, weak swell and messy wind. You’ll see a few clean mornings here and there – like Friday the 14th and Saturday the 15th with light north-northeast cross-offshore breezes – but the swell is tiny, barely 3 ft. The wave energy is low (108 and 116), so you’d be scratching for anything rideable. The afternoons are a write-off with solid west-southwest cross-onshore wind kicking up chop. The water is sitting at a pretty average 67°, nothing special for this time of year.

The only half-decent window for a surf appears on the morning of Sunday, August 23rd. We finally see some life, with a 4 ft west swell and a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy jumps to a moderate 212, and the wind is forecast to be glassy – dead calm, from the south. That's prime for clean, smooth waves. Now, it’s an exposed beach, so it won't be perfect, and it’s still a beginner-friendly break, so the 4 ft swell is a solid size for that level. It’s the closest thing to a highlight in this forecast.

After that, the swell sticks around a bit on the 24th (5 ft, period 9 seconds, energy 380) but the wind turns onshore and the rain showers roll in, so that window slams shut fast.

Other than that one glassy Sunday morning, everything else is either too small, too choppy, or has that weak, short-period swell that just doesn't have any punch. This is a classic case of needing to be patient. I wouldn’t be holding my breath for anything else.

Stay tuned, things can change. This is Rusty, signing off.

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.
