The Lowdown
Alright, I’ve had a look at what’s coming in for the next couple of weeks. Honestly, it’s a flat spell and a half for Le Kerou (Brittany). We’ve got a dry run that stretches from Tuesday the 28th of July all the way through to Monday the 10th of August. That’s a long gap with nothing worth paddling out for. The water’s sitting at about 68° which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s about the only highlight.
The first real chance of anything rideable doesn’t pop up until Tuesday the 11th of August. Tuesday morning, we see a bit of a pulse from the west-southwest, bumping up to 6 ft. The combined energy is moderate (348), but it’s a short period of 8 seconds, so it’s going to be a bit lumpy. There’s a light cross-onshore breeze that morning, so it’ll be messy but not totally blown out. The break is exposed to the west, and the optimum direction is west, so it’s lining up okay, but the quality is marginal. This one is sizeable enough that beginners might find it a bit much.
The standout, if you can call it that, looks like Wednesday the 12th of August. A solid 7 ft from the west-northwest early on, with a period of 9 seconds. The combined energy jumps right up to 1264, which is strong. The wind is a light cross breeze from the northwest, which is the best we’ll see all week. That early window on Wednesday morning is your best bet. It’s a big swell though, over 8 ft, so this is strictly for the experienced crew. The afternoon swings around to a cross-onshore wind and gets choppy, so get it while it’s clean in the morning.
For anything else, there’s just nothing doing. That long stretch of flat, poor conditions is pretty normal for this area during a quiet spell. Forecasts can change, but right now, mark your calendar for that Wednesday the 12th.

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.
