The Lowdown
Alright, let’s cut to the chase. The next 16 days are a total flat spell. The water at Les Laurons is a balmy 80°F, which is about 6°F warmer than normal. That’s a crazy warm anomaly, feels like a heated pool out there. Not what you want for a proper surf.
The first week is just dead. From the 15th all the way to the 22nd, there’s nothing. It’s wave-starved. We get a few tiny bumps, but the wind is all over the shop, mostly cross-shore or onshore, making any small swell completely junky. The energy readings are pitiful, mostly in the low double digits. You’d be paddling for whitewash all day.
The first time you might want to actually paddle out is on Sunday the 23rd. There’s a clean 4ft swell from the NW, with a nice cross-offshore breeze. The energy is up to 69, which is the strongest we see, but it’s still weak. It’s a fun, small day for a longboard; the period is short, so it will be a little gutless. Not a day for pumping barrels.
But then it gets bad again. The 24th through the 26th bring strong, onshore winds, making it a messy, blown-out disaster. The 25th has near-gale winds, so you won’t even want to be on the beach. It’s just hostile.
There is one last flicker of hope on the 29th. The morning is glassy with a clean 2ft wave from the west. It’s clean, but small. The energy is a touch higher, but again, it’s still weak. That’s the best we get, and it’s nothing to write home about.
Honestly, this is a dead period. There are no standout days, no hidden gems. The swell is too small, the periods are too short, and the wind is just bad. It’s a blank run, which happens in this area. Keep the wax in the drawer and wait for the next weather system to bring some real groundswell. Might be worth checking if the kites are pumped up, because this is looking more like a wind sport forecast than a surf forecast.
Take it easy,
Rusty.

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