The Lowdown

G’day, Rusty here. Alright, let’s have a look at what Le Kerou’s got cookin’ for us over the next couple of weeks. The good news is there are a few windows of clean surf, but you’ll need to pick your moments because there are also long stretches where it’s pretty ordinary.

The first real standout comes early on. Sunday the 13th, early morning, is looking like the pick of the whole forecast. We’ve got a clean 3ft swell rollin’ in from the west with a solid 11-second period, and the wind is dead glass. That’s about as good as it gets for this exposed beach break. The water’s sitting at 66°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so you won’t need a thick suit. Expect good surf conditions, and the combined swell energy is moderate at 240. If you’ve got a soft-top or you’re just gettin’ into it, this is your session. The only thing to keep in mind is that crowds are sometimes an issue here, so get in early if you want a clean one.

The afternoon on Sunday the 13th, the wind swings cross-on and the quality drops right off – poor surf conditions, so don’t bother.

Monday the 14th, early morning, is worth a look if you missed Sunday. Swell drops a touch to 3ft from the west, period back to 9 seconds, and it’s glassy again. The combined energy is 131 – weak but surfable. It’s very ordinary conditions, nothin’ to write home about, but if you need a paddle, it’ll do. Afternoon goes onshore and rubbish.

Now, we hit a bit of a dry spell. Tuesday the 15th through to Saturday the 19th is mostly poor. There’s a bit of a bump on Wednesday the 16th afternoon with a 6ft west-northwest swell and a combined energy of 986 (moderate), but the wind is a messy cross at 16 mph, so it’s choppy and not worth it. Friday the 18th morning sees a bigger 6ft west swell with a 16-second period – that’s a long period groundswell, combined energy 2266 (strong) – but the cross-on wind ruins it. If you’re a kiter, that Friday arvo with 19 mph cross-on and a lumpy 6ft might be your jam, but for paddlin’, it’s a no.

Then we get another gem. Sunday the 20th, early morning, it cleans right up. A 3ft west swell with 10-second period, light cross-off breeze, and the conditions are clean. Combined energy is 214 – weak but clean. Expect good surf conditions. This is the second standout.

Monday the 21st, early morning, is also solid. Swell 4ft from the west with a 14-second period (long period groundswell), light cross-off wind, combined energy 476 (moderate). Clean conditions again. This is another good session for a longboard or a funboard.

After that, the swell drops right away. Tuesday the 22nd through to Sunday the 27th, we’re looking at tiny, weak surf – mostly under 2ft, with combined energy mostly below 100. The wind is clean and offshore for much of it, but there’s just not enough wave to ride. It’s a proper blank run of about five to six days. Nothing for paddle surfing.

Monday the 28th, the last day in the forecast, shows a small bump of 2ft to 3ft west swell with a 12 to 13-second period and clean cross-off winds. Combined energy is 190 to 228 – weak. Marginal at best. Not a standout, but if you’re desperate, you could get a wet one.

So, bottom line: your best bet is Sunday the 13th early morning for the glass and clean lines. The second best is Sunday the 20th or Monday the 21st early mornings. After that, it’s a long wait. Rusty out.

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.
