The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the table for the next 16 days at Les Conches. I’ll be straight with you – it’s a bleak stretch. There’s a massive gap of quiet, poor conditions right through the end of July and into early August. We’re looking at a solid 10 days with nothing worth paddling out for. The good news? It does eventually turn around, but you’ll need patience.
The first real glimpse of rideable surf doesn’t show up until Friday morning, August 7th. That’s over a week away. The morning offers a glassy, clean 2ft of swell rolling in from the W, with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy of all swells directed here is moderate (216). It’s a small wave, but with that glassy surface, it’ll be the cleanest the break gets. The water temperature is about average for this time of year.
After that, the pattern drops back into mediocre territory. The rest of the second week sees onshore winds and chopped-up conditions. The swell sticks around the 2ft to 2ft mark from the W, but the wind is on it, making it sloppy. The energy is moderate (336) on Friday afternoon, but it won’t be worth the hassle.
The standout, and really the only window to get excited about, is that Friday morning, August 7th. It’s the one session where the stars align with clean conditions. The swell is small, but it’s clean. For a beginner-friendly spot like Les Conches, that’s your best bet. Keep in mind, this is a long-range call, so keep an eye on it, but it’s the one to pencil in.
Rusty out.

Information about the Les Conches Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Les Conches provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Les Conches can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Les Conches 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 (Les Conches) 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 Les Conches 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.
