Updates in hr min s Forecast update imminent
Alright, Rusty here again. I'm looking at the same charts, and I'll be honest – you're gonna want to find something else to do for a while.
The forecast for Le Kerou kicks off with a whole lot of nothing. There's no decent surf on offer for the first few days. The first chance of getting wet doesn't come until Wednesday morning, July 9th, and it's barely a ripple.
For the next week and a half, there are long gaps with no good recommendations. The surf stays small, weak, and mostly messy until the tail end of the period.
The Only Window Worth Mentioning
The closest thing to a surf comes on Thursday morning, July 16th. There's a tiny pulse of energy, with waves around 3ft from the WSW. The period is a short, gutless 5 seconds. The combined energy is still low, just 52 (moderate energy).
The problem is the wind. That morning it'll be a gentle cross-onshore breeze, making the surface a bit bumpy. It's not going to be clean or lined up.
This spot needs a W swell direction, which is spot on, but the size and wind just kill it. For a beginner, 3ft is okay, but the short period will make it crumbly and hard to read.
From July 9th through the 22nd, forget it. The wind is all over the place – mostly onshore or strong cross-offshore – and the swell never gets above 2ft for most of that time. That one Thursday morning I mentioned is your only real look, and it's not a good one.
So yeah, it’s a pretty bleak run for the area. That’s normal here sometimes. Don't hold your breath.

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.
