The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what Le Kerou has in store for us over the next couple of weeks.

To be honest, the first week is a tough one. We’ve got a long stretch of poor conditions from Friday the 14th right through to the end of the week beginning the 22nd. The swell is tiny, and the wind is all over the place – mostly onshore or cross-onshore, which will make for messy, choppy surf. You’ll be better off leaving the board in the car for most of that time. There’s a window of clean surf on the morning of Thursday the 20th with a gentle offshore breeze from the north-northeast, but the swell is only 2ft and weak (combined energy of 51), so it’s barely a paddle. The 22nd of August goes glassy on the Saturday afternoon, but again, it’s only 1.0ft and not worth the effort.

Now, the real interest comes in the second week. The standouts are the morning of the 29th of August. That Saturday morning is looking like the pick of the entire forecast. The swell is going to be a solid 12ft from the west with a very long period of 13 seconds (groundswell). The combined energy is a massive 7058, which is strong. Now, that size is definitely for experts only – over 8ft is big, powerful stuff. The wind is a clean cross-off from the north-northwest, which should keep the surface tidy. Just be aware, with such a long period, it will be a groundswell that might break a bit too straight on a beach break, but Le Kerou is an exposed break, so it should handle it. That’s the morning to circle.

The afternoon before, the 28th of August, will also have some size, with 8ft to 10ft, but the wind is messy and strong, making it a bit of a washing machine.

For the rest of the week, the 26th of August Wednesday afternoon has a clean-looking 7ft swell, but it’s a poor tide and questionable conditions, and the wind is onshore, so it’s not a goer. The 27th of August Thursday morning has a bit of a bump but nothing special.

The water temperature is sitting at 68°F, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so no need for a thick wetsuit.

So, bottom line: the first week is a write-off. The second week, particularly the morning of the 29th, is the one to watch. It’s promising, but it’s a long way out, so keep an eye on it.

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.
