The Lowdown

Alright, let’s get real here. I’ve looked at what’s on offer for Le Kerou, and to be honest, it’s a pretty grim stretch ahead. We’re looking at a 16-day window, but the first week and a half is basically a write-off. From now until the 26th of July, the swell is tiny – we’re talking 0.7ft to 1ft – and the wind is all over the place. You’ll be staring at a lake. The combined energy is barely a whisper, with most days showing single-digit to low double-digit readings. It’s going to be a long, flat spell.

Then, on the morning of Sunday, the 26th of July, we finally see a pulse arrive. The swell bumps up to 5ft from the west, with a period of 7 seconds. The combined energy jumps to 167 (moderate), but the wind is cross-shore at 16 mph, creating a cross-chop. It’s not clean, but it’s the first real movement we’ve seen. The afternoon gets a bit bigger at 5ft, with energy at 268 (moderate), still with that cross-shore wind. It’s a bit of a messy one.

The best chance in this whole outlook looks to be the morning of Monday, the 27th of July. The swell holds at 4ft from the west, with a period of 9 seconds. The combined energy is a solid 196 (moderate). The wind is a light cross-offshore breeze from the northwest at 9 mph, which will keep the surface clean. The water is much warmer than normal for this time of year, sitting at 69°F – a solid 5°F above average. The break is a beginner-friendly spot, fairly consistent, and exposed to the west swell. It’s the standout, but it’s still only described as “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions.”

If you’re a beginner, this is your window. The swell is small enough to be safe. For the more experienced, don’t get your hopes up. The afternoon of the 27th sees the swell jump to 5ft and the energy skyrocket to 527 (strong), but the wind swings cross-shore at 12 mph, and the wave comment is “marginal.” It’s going to be a lumpy, choppy mess.

The morning of Tuesday, the 28th of July, is worth a mention. The swell drops to 2ft from the west, period 10 seconds, and the wind goes glassy – dead calm. The energy is only 89 (weak), but for a clean, small-wave session on a longboard, it could be a fun, quiet paddle. The afternoon turns onshore and messy.

After that, the forecast dries right up again. We’re looking at another week of tiny, weak swells and poor conditions right through to the 5th of August. The morning of Monday, the 3rd of August, shows a brief moment of hope with 2ft, glassy wind, and energy of 68, but it’s a fleeting moment in a sea of flatness.

So, the pick of the litter is the morning of the 27th of July. It’s not epic, but it’s the cleanest, most rideable swell we’ll see. Bring a grovel board and low expectations.

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.
