The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for Le Kerou over the next couple of weeks.

To be straight with you, this is a pretty grim stretch. For the first 14 days, from the 16th of July right through to the 29th, there’s barely a ripple worth paddling for. We’re talking tiny, weak surf with poor conditions. The swell is consistently small, below 1 ft for most of it, and when it does try to push a little, the wind is almost always howling from the WSW, making it a lumpy, choppy mess. You’d be better off waxing your board at home than staring at this. The water temp is a notable 69°F on the 16th, which is much warmer than usual for this time of year, nearly 5° warmer, so at least a dip would be comfortable, but there’s just no wave to ride.

The only glimmer of something comes on the 30th of July, Thursday morning. We finally see a pulse of energy, with a combined swell energy of 842 (moderate), which is strong for this spot. The swell is 4 ft from the W, with a very long period of 13 seconds. That’s a proper groundswell. The wind is light from the NW, so it’s a light cross-shore with small crossing wind ripples, which isn’t ideal but is far better than the cross-onshore we’ve been seeing. The forecast only gives it a marginal rating, so it’s not a lock, but it’s the only real chance in the whole window. That long period means it’ll be well-shaped and powerful, but it might break a bit straight across the beach. The afternoon on the 30th gets ruined by a 19 mph cross-onshore, so it’s a morning-only window.

After that, the 31st of July drops back down to 3 ft with onshore winds, so it’s back to the poor stuff.

So, the honest truth? There’s only one standout, and it’s the morning of the 30th of July. It’s a long way out, so don’t book the day off work just yet, but mark it on your calendar. Everything else is a write-off. The crowds are listed as "sometimes" at Le Kerou, and with this lineup, you’ll probably have the place to yourself for that morning session.

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.

Le Kerou is 11 km (7 miles) from the city of Ploemeur. If you plan a holiday in Finistere - Brittany, look for hotels and other accommodation in Ploemeur. Ploemeur has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
