The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here with the local outlook. I'm looking at Les Laurons, that reef break we all know. Right now, the water is sitting at about 80°F, which is a good 9°F warmer than normal for this time of year – that's a real anomaly, feels like bathwater. But don't let that fool you, because the surf situation is pretty grim.
We've got a long stretch of flat or near-flat conditions starting today, Sunday the 19th of July, and running right through the next week and a half. The wind is all over the place – cross, cross-off, sometimes glassy – but the swell is just too small and weak to do anything with. Most days the combined wave energy is in the single digits or low teens, meaning barely a ripple. The only time we see a pulse is on Thursday the 23rd, with a 3ft NNW swell hitting 31 energy, but the wind is a strong cross at 28 mph, making it a messy lumpy mess. Not worth paddling out.
The one day that might get your hopes up is Saturday the 1st of August. Early morning looks clean with a light offshore breeze from the north at 6 mph, and a small 3ft SSE swell, period around 8 seconds – that's a short-period wind swell, not a groundswell. The combined energy is 79, still weak. The wave comment says "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions" – that's about as exciting as it gets. But even then, the afternoon turns choppy and cross-shore. So honestly, there's nothing to get excited about in this whole 16-day window. The break itself is fairly consistent, but the weather and swell patterns are just not lining up. Sometimes you get a blank run like this, and it's a normal thing for this area. Forecasts can change, but for now, keep your board in the car and wait for a better day.
That's it from me. Keep an eye on the sky, but don't hold your breath. Rusty out.

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.
