Alright folks, let’s break it down.

Le Kerou is in for a rough ride. For a spot that breaks fairly consistently with west swell, we’re looking at a long, flat, and wind-stuffed opening. For the first week and a half, the swell barely climbs above 2 ft, and the wind is just not cooperating – cross-on, onshore, or making things choppy. You’ll get a few cleaner moments Tuesday morning (7th July) and Wednesday morning (8th July) with light cross-offshore breezes, but the swell is a tiny 1 ft. It’s there, but not worth the drive.

The first real chance comes on Sunday morning (12th July). The wind goes dead calm – glassy. Swell is still small, about 2 ft from the west, but with that glass, it’ll be the cleanest wave you’ll see all week. Energy is weak (73), but for a beginner-friendly wave, it’s your best shot in a while.

Tuesday morning (14th July) is another highlight. A moderate offshore breeze from the north-northeast at 12 mph will groom that 2 ft west swell (11-second period) into clean lines. Energy hits 91 – still weak, but the best so far. Worth a paddle if you’re keen.

The second week gets more interesting, but wind keeps messing it up. Friday afternoon (17th July) sees the swell grow to 2 ft from the west with a longer 12-second period, but a fresh 22 mph cross-onshore wind makes it lumpy and ugly despite the energy climbing to 158.

Then comes Saturday morning (18th July) – this is the one. Glassy calm, 3 ft of west swell at 10 seconds, and combined energy of 159. Clean, small, and user-friendly. This is your best session of the whole forecast.

Later that afternoon, the swell jumps to 4 ft from the west-northwest (350 energy), but the cross-shore wind ruins it.

Monday morning (20th July) brings the biggest swell of the whole run: 5 ft from the west, with a very strong combined energy of 417. But it’s got a fresh 19 mph cross-shore wind on it – lumpy, messy, and powerful. That’s too big for beginners and blown-out for experts. By the afternoon, it’s 6 ft and 481 energy, but the cross-onshore wind is even worse. That setup is more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.

So, the honest truth: Le Kerou is mostly a bust for two weeks. The clear standouts are Sunday morning (12th July) for glassy small waves, Tuesday morning (14th July) for offshore wind, and the real winner is Saturday morning (18th July) – glassy, 3 ft, clean. That’s the one I’d circle on the calendar. Everything else? Choppy, small, or blown to bits.

It's a tough stretch for a break that usually delivers. But forecasts can shift, and it won’t stay this poor forever.

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.
